passed i m sitting there on fox news sunday i m asked to comment on it i have been readings what s in the press about it and i get it wrong. i think it s roughly along the lines that bob said. i later went and read the law. although it was not easy to find the correct version on the internet but did i finally get a copy of it and read it and realized i had gotten it all long. bill: you think that schieffer. i think knowing bob, he made a mistake. bill: all right. let me challenge. i have said that 15 times on this program, 15 times that you had to be involved in another police matter. so we will assume schieffer doesn t watch the factor. couldn t watch fox news either. couldn t read the wall street journal. couldn t listen to you. couldn t listen to krauthammer. what is he doing? what is schieffer doing? he doesn t know anything? look, i m not here to bash bob schieffer but i am teed off because i believe that the three network newscasts.
