[My Favorite Headache]

Scott Ritter live interview coming on Fox News in seconds....starting a live thread for those watching and not watching

[AmishDude]

"I am pro-marine"

What does he think marines thought when they enlisted? They were joining a boot-polishing and bed-making organization? Most jarheads (I use the team quite affectionately) would like to get the Iraq mission underway now. And would trample Scott Ritter to get there.

[ezo4]

He just admitted that he hasnt received any inelegance from the US gov. since 1998

[twyn1]

"it's unlikely that they've been able to stockpile chemical or biological weapons" Huh ??? how do you know ??

THIRD time he's said ...make the case Mr. President, make the case (DNC talking point of the day)

[tomahawk]

Apparently Butler wasn't on Saddam's payroll, unlike some other people.

[My Favorite Headache]

Ritter says he does not trust President Bush and his administration.

[TLBSHOW]

Is he promoting his book with left wing nut wlliy piity?

[twyn1]

FNC going to try and get Butler in a face-to-face with Ritter -- wow !! Pay-per-View ???

[Dan Day]

Anthrax is a virus, correct? Viruses can be viable for a long, long time if the conditions are right.

Actually, Anthrax is a bacterium.

However, one reason Anthrax is such a nasty bioweapon is that it forms spores -- hardened shell-covered capsules in which the bacterium goes into "suspended animation" -- which are very hardy and can survive adverse conditions for a very long time.

[twyn1]

You know, this sounds almost like petty partisanship, he doesn't like President Bush, could it really be that simple ?? He's flipped-flopped on Iraq just like Tommy Dashchole

[My Favorite Headache]

FNC will never land it. Ritter just went over the coals of hell with Asman. That is about as tough as it will get for him as far as questioning on any network. This was the last time he will step up on a Fox Stage for sure. He knows going against Butler would be a nightmare with David sitting there.

[The Great Satan]

"Lilly whites"

[Callahan]

This guy is a former marine. Why the hell is he contradicting his own statements and sticking up for Hussein? Utterly bizarre.

[Wingsofgold]

Anthrax is bacteria. It last freakin FUH-EV-HA.

[rolling_stone]

Great interview, made Ritter look like the south end of a horse...

[PRO 1]

This guy is a former marine. Why the hell is he contradicting his own statements and sticking up for Hussein?

This kind of flip is hardly unprecedented: An Essay on Hypocrisy.

[joyful1]

Finished watching the whole stinking thing. I think Ritter won.

Ritter appeared confident and composed. The interviewer seemed near losing it.

Ritter seems like a traitor, a threat to all America and our families. I don't doubt he is in kahoots with Hussein, but in a fashion that will be devilish (Clintonish) to detect. This is bad.

[twyn1]

It would be fun to watch tho', this guy is a dangerously close to being a traitor in my book. I almost wish that they did have a girlfriend or wife held in Iraq, someone who he loves and is lying now to keep her unharmed

[Trust but Verify]

Something just struck me, and I could be way off here, but could Ritter's turnabout have anything to do with Scott Speicher? Could Hussein have told him he has Speicher and will release him if Ritter successfully runs interference for him?

I can't imagine money being the reason for this apparent treason.

"Viruses can be viable for a long, long time if the conditions are right. "

You can find it in dirt if you know where to look -- like where infected cows were kept. The media should black list guy as a phony.
