I had to turn it off. Sorry, it was just too grating. So blatantly politicised. Rice too. She dumped a lot on Clinton, e.g., that he didn't meet with Tenet OR Freeh, although she did it "nicely," by saying that "our administration was glad to meet with Tenet and Freeh and this was a big change."

She's clearly p'o'ed, and she is sort of harsh when she's p'o'ed.

Reminds me of miserable experiences during trials. One of the things you do is find the weak spots in opposing parties and their witnesses, and poke them. When the shoe is on the other foot, no matter how hard or long you tell them "you don't have to react" they can't stop themselves. It's human nature.

Her weak spots (pride in her work, she's a perfectionist, maybe a control freak) are being jabbed, and she can't stop reacting. She comes across well but it's painful to watch her react to cheap shots that she should just ignore.

"Someone said Kerrey called her Dr Clark several times. See if you pick that up."

I counted four times Kerrey called Dr. Rice, "Dr. Clarke".
The fourth time Kerrey called her Dr. Clarke, she
responded.......

KERREY: Dr. Clarke, in the spirit of further declassification...

RICE: Sir, with all...

KERREY: The spirit...

RICE: I don't think I look like Dick Clarke, but...

(LAUGHTER)

KERREY: Dr. Rice, excuse me.
