The full 20 minute debate between Jim, Rod and me is now up and running.
The story in the Trib mentioned that the Congressman and the Senator kept arguing after the debate was over. It did.
As I was leaving I ended up shaking hands with Congressman Oberstar’s retinue who were all very nice to me. Jim himself looked at me benevolently and said something about my having been very civil. I smiled and told the Congressman that “They didn’t give me a chance not to be.”
“Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing.”
