State of Kentucky secondary Archives: on Homeland Security


Dan Mongiardo: Saddam is not my good friend

BUNNING: We have combined 22 different agencies of the federal government to make us more secure. Mongiardo doesn’t understand that there has not been an attack over the last three years in the US. Do you think that’s by accident or do you think it’s by design? We have worked very, very hard. By combining intelligence, by confronting our good friend Saddam, the ugliest dictator in history, on their turf rather than on our turf, we have prevented attacks.

MONGIARDO: I’m concerned we are going to see another attack. Bunning’s priorities are not to take care of the working class families of this state. Even though you think that I look like Saddam’s sons, he is not my good friend.
