McGrath: I was working in Washington, D.C. at the heighth of the Viet Nam protests and was a good friend of the Deputy Attorney General at the time. He was in charge of security of the Capital. Protestors were overturning cars in the streets setting them afire, causing damage to government buildings, etc. I can assure you, based on his discussions with me after, no one in the White House or in the upper echelons of government were sitting around a cafeteria sipping coffee or lecturing to anyone.

Do you suppose when the Terriorists hit the Pentagon and the WTC, Vice President Cheney was sitting around chatting in the cafeteria.

Get real. :>)
