Getting caught by the police the first time, was obviously not enough of a scare for Scott aka William

This is coming from a man who claimed -- probably correctly -- to be under FBI surveillance. Gotta wonder if part of Scotty doesn't want to get caught. Something seems to be eating at his conscience:

"And my brain has no clue which way to go here. It's just twisted. And I'm honest when I say I get up every morning and I just want to get the hell out of this." -- Scott Ritter, November 2002

What kinda college is Smith and Hobard?

"True to their focus on gender, Hobart and William Smith boast one of the country's first women's studies programs, established in 1969."

Thanks for the heads up. I've been feeling Ritter-deprived for the past few hours. I need a new fix.

Is there any luck he will offer himself as a human shield/target in Iraq?

She looks uncannily like a female Alfred E. Neumann of Mad Magazine fame (What, me worry?). That picture should be put under seal. Shiver......

Ritter has proven to have a sleazy side, to say the VERY least. And his arguments, coupled (no pun intended) with possible conflicts of interest, are strident and simply don't hold up. BUT I think a lot of folks are playing into his hands (again no pun intended) by -- and I mean this seriously -- ignoring rebutting his ARGUMENTS and almost gleefully going on about this case. The danger is a)few are going to sympathize with him but to those who do not agree with us they're doing to paint this as "another 'example of conservatives seeking to discredit and slash those who oppose us, b)his flawed, and conflict of interest peppered, arguments and positions (each time more strident and hysterical) go unanswered.
This is a guy who can be destroyed due to this dumb and ideologically-tainted IDEAS. I fear that those who oppose the war are going to say "they're jumping all over this now to discredit him because he is telling the truth."
His arrest should be covered...but I do think people are losing sight of his political positions. THOSE need to be the focus. THOSE are what may influence polls.

I think people should be free, individiuals. I don't particularly like Affinity Group Marketing as the end all and be all of politics.

Ritter was supposedly out of the country yesterday.

He said almost all of Iraq's weapons were accounted for and destroyed four years ago.

But before that Scotty Scuddy Ritter Rooter said: "Iraq today is not disarmed, and remains an ugly threat to its neighbors and to world peace." Testimony before the Senate 9/3/98

Then after making a documentary with Saddam's blessing he changes his tune.

A caller to the Schnitt show today had a good, plausible point...maybe saddam found out about ritter's penchant for young flesh and was using it to blackmail the creep. Perhaps that is why ritter did a 180 in 1 millisecond. (With all his visits to Iraq, saddam may have provided young Iraqi girls for ritter's pleasure and filmed the goings-on ala From Russia With Love technique.)
