3. If he were Mr. or Mrs. Normal CItizen...

5. Stahl asked Delay about the investigation and Delay said,

14. "We're not here to talk about Tom Delay," the sleazy sidekick says.

12. Whoa....Leslie hammered the hammer...nt
Ask him while in the rotunda of congress....to answer a question. He refused.

Mark Foley, FL stepped in to rescue him and told Leslie ..."we are not answering these questions." Leslie says, "when will you answer them?"
Foley said, "not now, we're not interested."

Leslie: Well, we are!
