\b0 \uc0\u8232 \u8232 \u8232 \u8232 And Senator John Kerry, Chairman of the Foreign Relations
committee, was also quick to come to Rice\'92s defense. As McClatchy reports he called Rice
\'93a remarkable public servant\'94 and {\field{\*\fldinst{HYPERLINK "http://www.mcclatchydc.com/2012/09/28/170078/intelligence-office-says-it-got.html"}}{\fldrslt
