Arthel: your response. >> i agree with many of the things that joel said because i dont want this to become a political circus. i want to get to the truth and i just dont think that an fbi investigation is warranted, hes being investigated over six times, i just want to hear the story and get to the truth, but i will tell you this -- arthel: michael, hold onto that thought for me because what i want to you is read to you, we have a copy of the letter from debra, the attorney for dr. ford says, d...
