Seems like people assume he is now a liar because he doesn't agree with them. I heard him the other night. He was the first one I have heard say we removed the inspectors. About everyone else is giving the impression that Saddam kicked them out. If we really wanted inspectors there, we would have left them. Maybe we don't want the world to know that he has zilch. It would spoil the media image.

Years ago a man wise in the ways of Washington once told me, "Once someone is on the CIA payroll, they are always on the CIA payroll."

If so, that would apply to Bush, Sr., too.

Ritter is making a documentary about Iraq which is financed by $400,000 from an Iraqi-American man, Shakir al-Khafaji.

But that does not explain Ritter's conversion in the first place.

It explains everything with crystal clarity. Ritter sold out and went to the other side. No conspiracy or plot necessary, just plain old everyday greed.

I don't understand, however, why the CIA would oppose an attack on Iraq.

This was back in Nov 2001 when the stall strategy was and still is in effect IMHO.

You win the prize! Ritter needs the money, and he also needs to keep his mug in the press.

Just listen to the man; he's an egomaniacal narcissist who's addicted to kleig lights.

I appreciate you comments spinky, because this Ritter guy has puzzled me by his behavior for the past year.

I'm not a rocket scientist, and I noticed Ritter's flip flop immediately. I saw him on TV and turned up the volume the other day, and was terribly dissapointed in him. Sure is one scary world in some ways these days!

It's a total mystery to me. Are we sure he's the same Scott Ritter? That he wasn't replaced by a double? Half kidding. Real Twilight Zone stuff this.
