No, I assumed they did not have security clearances. As I said earlier in my comments, nothing I said violated national security, and nothing I said would require a security clearance. Just about everything I said, with the exception of those specific examples you are referring to, which I again say I regret making, was in the public domain, and had been put there by either the service or me or my predecessor. So there was no need for security clearances.
