Look at Pat's face 43 seconds in. That took diplomacy and restraint of a presidential level. If we're going to be sitting across the table from Ahmadinejad, I want someone like this, not some ingrate with no poker face who can't stop complaining about "inheriting" unpleasant things in an office he spent two years and $750,000,000 trying to get. Compare and contrast Pat's even-headedness with, for instance, this. Or, if you want to broaden the net a bit, this or this (not embedded, because those politicians have some pretty filthy mouths).
