[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.

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

Since you would neber sell out your country for money I'm sure it's difficiult for you to imagine that anyone would. But we're not talking about your or me...we're talking about a bald faced lying traitor, and there's no reason to belive that someone willing to run interference for a mad man like Saddam would not do so for any amount of money.

Don't waste your energy trying to ennoble thsi traitor's motives.

Then you don't know this particular Jerk. Ritter loves tha good life, or his idea of the good life. Has ego bigger'n Clinton's.

Re: Scott Speicher, now that would be something I could understand, it would be a shame but at least it would explain this weird hypocrisy
