article. it s very special. that is. you can you should hang that on the wall. beyond all this, i m just looking at one of the basic fact in julia s piece. a third of foreign service jobs be in overseas u.s. embassies and consulates are empty. 20 ambassadorships remain unfilled. we re three years into the administration. this was a plan. it s unbelievable. they said from the beginning the president, his son-in-law said from the beginning, we re going to run the world from here. we don t need people filling these positions. and history doesn t matter. so we know woody, right? you know woody? i don t know woody. he s very nice. you know woody, right? here s the thing about woody. like, he s a nice guy. he s a jeb guy. he was like, mainstream republican. and now he s acting like a stooge? like, oh, somebody said obama s name? it just shows you how much people are shape shifting because of donald trump s insecurities.
not too young gun. i m not that much older than them. when they call themselves young guns. eric. we got to talk first of all about the debate. i know you re a jeb guy. i love jeb. i ve told people privately, you know, a year ago i was going to be voting for jeb bush. he was one of the best governors i ve seen. most say he had a bad night last night. would you agree with that? it was a tough night. you know you ve been elected office and been through debates. certainly, these campaigns as well as serving are long hauls. they re marathons. so you re not going to win or lose an election on the debate but yeah, it was a tough night. it was the night everybody said he had to perform well or else the dumber class would go for the exits. that s a real fear this morning, right. i don t know if i m buying into all that about it.
carly fiorina, i think she could breakthrough saying hillary clinton is going to run an bam-type economy and that s a failure. there s an opportunity for jeb and carly to stand out and come through and breakthrough. what do you think? i think carly fiorina is extremely fluent on economics and business given her ten u at hp. it will be interesting to see how she responds to criticism. she has an opportunity to show the country, this is what it s all about. on november 10th. we ll be watching to see who can lead us economically. do they have a vision economically. i think she is a very good speaker and she has a lot of clear ideas on the economy. so i ll be watching her very carefully. i agree with you on bush. i think that bush has certainly a fluency in all of these issues. but he needs to be able to triangulate that. he needs people to believe quiet voice. like ben carson.
on that? they said they spent the irs said they spent $20 million, 250 attorneys, couldn t find any of this stuff, and yet the inspector general could find it, start to finish, in 15 days. and then they figured out that they actually had these in their possession, despite what they had told us and the irs then went ahead and destroyed about 24,000 e-mails. and there s consequences for that. no repercussions, and that s why you ve got to hold them accountable. there has to be some kind of justice here despite elijah cummings and others saying big waste of money like the benghazi hearings. let s talk about the gop debate tonight. what are you looking for? what should we expect? we know you re a jeb guy, right? no. i m holding my powder dry on this one. i look forward to a very spirited debate. i d much rather be a republican in this situation than what the democrats are going through. so i haven t put in for anybody. i m still crying that mitt romney s not the president of the
petraeus, he wrote classified information as i recall the facts of that case into a journal that he then gave to his biographer. that seems like a clear cut case where the guy absolutely knew what he was doing was wrong and did it nonetheless. i don t know how you get over that hurdle for secretary clinton. the way you get over it is to find out what she actually knew about what was there, what conversations she had at the time, what was in all of the e-mails that were on that server. and we have not yet seen or heard that. we don t know what she said to various people around her. they haven t yet all testified. judge, i should point out in this cycle, and you correct me if i m wrong, you re a jeb guy, who i think has been informally offering counsel to him. you re here offering your legal analysis. i read the e-mails that have been released thus far, i felt a little dirty doing it because
