they thought bob hanssen was a snitch telling everything they were doing to the mayor daley's office. and i said well, when he joined the fbi, which was 1976, he said he literally marched down there and said he should take the fbi job but i said were you ever approached by the fbi and interviewed by them, background check and tell them that? he said no, i never talked to the fbi. so, one of my points of the book is much like the event of september 11th, bob hanssen was a failure of intelligence gathering. he shouldn't have been hired by the fbi in my view. after he was hired by the fbi to the rate of 1976, he was sent to gary indiana right near chicago about 30, 40 miles outside, but because he had that nba, they certainly had more important things in mind for him, and they sent him to new york to the new york field office where he lived in scarsdale new york. when he lived in scarsdale he paid $34,000 for it and his -- scarsdale was known as a pretty rich the area of new york with his mother-in-law told me we always refer to that house has been in the slums of scarsdale if there is s

i mean, this is the same bill daley who part for mondale in 1984, by and in '88, gore in 2000 and most recently on wall street. that track record of success doesn't please my republican colleagues, i'm not sure what does. i have learned very quickly even in walking happier that the name of the game his seniority. congressman duffy, at least you should be used to that the lack of seniority. i understand that you are the tenth of 11 siblings. i also understand that you were 14 by the time you got to use the bathroom in your own house. as freshmen many of us rode in on this wave of change. i have come full circle. the last time i lived and worked in washington d.c. i was a college intern for my then congressman richard shelby. things really have changed. back then richard shelby was a democrat, and show was lieberman. arlen specter was a republican. jerry brown was a washed up california politician. arnold told us he would be back. kristine o'donnell was actually a witch, and joe biden was getting in trouble for his mouth. well, i guess not everything has changed. it is amazing how life b
