His nose seems always in the air as he talks to one of us "little people" and I feel he needs to be taken down a couple notches -- as Senator Warnock does so well here.

(Thankfully, he is no relation to the Don Bessent who added to the glory of the '55 Dodger World Champion baseball team, helping the best Brooklyn Dodger team in history until arm trouble shortened his career.)
