It was a train wreck.

But I felt my standard was that shouldn't have been said.

And that's the quote they ran with.

I mean, that was the money shot, you know, which, again, is it that valuable?

No.

I mean, there were already plenty of people saying, hey, this thing is way out of control.

And, you know...

the movement toward we're pulling everybody out had started with the bodies being dragged i mean that that was really probably the shock that that for almost forced it shouldn't have forced but but in a political person's mind that's the rationale for saying we're coming out we didn't want to come out i can tell you i didn't want to come out nobody else wanted to come out everybody else wanted to finish the job but

politically, that I think is what caused it.

That's my theory.

Not right.

I'm not advocating that.

I'm just saying that's what caused it.

So anyway,

Now there's been all this activity again, because you've got the reporters, you've got Suzanne, and then they think, okay, his location's probably going to be compromised.

Let's move him again.

So stick me in another car, take me to another location.

Never saw the mattress again.

I did keep the pajamas.

And now I'm in the final location.
