Where is all this BS coming from. Seems like everone has taken on Democrat methods of demonizing.

Until there is evidence of illegallity, I'll reserve judgement.

Ritter made a good case against an Iraq offensive, but if we have to take down worldwide Islamists, Iraq is as good of a second step after Afganistan as any. Ritter just doesn't see the big picture.

This is the dumbest tread I ever read.

This is relevant because we can now possibly see why Ritter changed his position 180 degrees. We always thought the Iraqi's bribed him with cash. This points to blackmail with pictures.

If the arrest records with his name on them and the mug shot from the police aren't enough proof for you, what will be?

What do you mean, "evidence of illegality"?

He was ordered into counseling for sex offenders. He was being investigated for a previous tryst - a meeting set up with what he thought was a *fourteen* year old girl.

It's illegal to do what he did.
He didn't even have the sense to stop trying to arrange these meetings even after he had been caught in a previous and released with a warning.

The creeps who set up this type of meeting have been known to do much worse than masturbate in front of the young things. (In my local area a man arranged such a meeting, abducted, beat up and raped the girl.)
