There's a very dramatic statement attributed to Michael Scheuer, on Glen Beck's show. Unfortunately, I can't find a Fox News transcript, just lots of videos.

Even more unfortunately, I can't get the latest Flash player to install, and I need a new sound card anyway.  Could some kind soul go to the rather fringe site that I'm now using for the Beck show quote, verify that Scheuer actually said this, and perhaps change the citation so it's pointing at the video and isn't in such a partisan context? (Don't get me wrong, all sides here are partisan).

Prime Minister, you can't take the bull by the horns if you're grasping the nettle. I mean, if you grasped the nettle with one hand, you could take the bull by one horn with the other hand, but not by both horns because your hand wouldn't be big enough, and if you took a bull by only one horn it would be rather dangerous because...'

I watched the video and he definitely said it verbatum.  Now what did you want me to do?

Here it is on the Fox website:

Can you give me a YouTube link or something a little less nutty than the page where I found it...a more neutral citation?

That works! When I find myself citing anything involving Glen Beck, though, I hear Twilight Zone music.
