Ranking Republican Kit Bond on the Senate Intelligence committee a bad example for intelligence
I suspect he is barely sharp enough to shine President Obama's shoes:
==============================
The ranking Republican on the Senate Intelligence Committee described President Barack Obama's trip to Russia -- during which the president negotiated a new arms-reduction agreement -- as a "manure pile" to journalists during a conference call.
Sen. Kit Bond (R-MO) told reporters that the president hadn't addressed any of the pressing issues between the United States and Russia, and that the arms-reduction agreement amounted to very little because Russia would be giving up aging weapons they cannot afford to replace.

1. "...because Russia would be giving up aging weapons they cannot afford to replace."
And we won't benefit from the same cost-savings?

What a maroon.
