"Senator, are you planning to contact any other of our adversaries around the world? For example, do you plan to check with the North Koreans to make sure that they know that any deal has to be approved by the Congress?"

"How does (your letter) make America strong, make things better?"

I sure wish though he had asked about all the other countries who are negotiating alongside us - are we all a bunch of bumbling weak-willed idiots who need to be schooled by this Cotton fool?

Never trusted a word that came out of this so called reporters mouth. This is the same guy who helped with the take down of Dan Rather. Shieffer is nothing more than a tool of 1% and they are concerned at what these 47 Senators could cause them in prestige and coin of the day.
