I often wonder the same about the hollywood types that talk about Castro like he’s the second coming. Some of them really go out of their way to stick up for the guy.

Memo to Ritter: next time get her to hold up two fingers.

Cops like to play video “loops” of underage camgirls in stings like this.

Some film maker needs to make a movie about this guy. Wonder if all those stupid University Students he spoke to all over the country know this guy is now a felon. Remember how MSMBC had this propagandist on all the time. Wonder if this will be reported by the lefties? I already know the answer to that.

Then, like a switch had been thrown, he says there aren’t any WMDs.

He turned out to be right, Saddam didn't have WMDs. The thing that is weird is this is the second time Ritter got caught doing this.

I remember the media loving him. But then, it is the media. Child molesters are no big deal for American Marxists.

I’m very pleased the man has received some measure of justice. I wonder how he’ll like being another prisoner’s girl friend in prison. He better have access to plenty of vaseline because he’ll need it.

Most likely explanation is that someone got the goods on him—demrats are especially good at that. I also think he enjoyed his 15 minutes of fame.

I wonder if anyone went to bat for him to be separated from the general prison population. The Onada regime might do it, but this would be a bad time for Onada to be seen pandering to a pedofile. Moreover, it could appear he was in the demrats back pocket.

There’s a great story here. This is probably only one of many regarding WMD in Iraq,

Gosh, do you think Scott might have been blackmailed regarding his UN work on Iraq WMDs?

Indeed. And now he's found out that they didn't trust him to keep quiet about it anyway.

Hussein paid him $400,000 to make a “documentary” plus all the 12 year old girls he wanted.

Ok, I made up the latter part, but Hussein did pay him off.

There's other interesting coincidences, including the coincidental timing of destruction of our own wmd arsenal which for some reason was proceeding behind schedule as if overwhelmed, with shipments from overseas of Russian material for reprocessing, all at the same time as equipment from Iraq's programs was showing up in Jordanian and European ports and scrapyards, and Iraqi scientists were found in Syria, Libya, Egypt, etc.
