Reply #25: Interesting that the other tea partier, Jim DeMint skipped it

I think that Burns did as well as he could on the "do we now who they are" question. He spoke of knowing many of them and listed at least one. At a point where some of the right and left are saying it is AQ or Muslim Brotherhood, when there is no proof or reason - other than Qaddafi's claims to think so.

I have been consistently impressed with Corker on the committee - and, of course, Lugar. They were in complete contrast to Rubio. I thank you for putting him in perspective - he really is too far to the right. My reaction was to be afraid of him.

Your last point scares me in terms of Lugar. As the most respected Republican voice on foreign policy, he might have to fight both the neo-cons and the tea party.
