...but decided that since it was Swalwell, it wouldn't get attacked. I was wrong.

I don't equate Swalwell's comments with trash talk from the uninformed. He's been involved in the push for the release of these documents. If he has something to say, I'll listen to it. I may not consider it to be a "done deal," but I'll listen, if only for the fact that it's coming from him.

Thanks for your comments. We're on the same page.
