I think not taking Iran seriously is an enormous mistake. I've always felt that it was much more of a problem than Iraq was.

Pat Roberts and I both feel very strongly that when we get to Iran, that we can't make the same mistakes. We have to ask the questions, the hard questions before, not afterwards, and get the right intelligence.

I don't think so, and that's partly the problem of not checking cargo, and it's partly the problem of biological weapons, which nobody has figured out really what to do about yet,

Taking me seriously is a big mistake. I certainly wouldn't.

I think I made a mistake once... yeah... it was only once.
