Hey Moron... If I'm going to accept money from a N. Korean-American to make a movie about how the US is brutalizing the regime of Kim Jong Il and trying to create a "casus belli" for war, I'd be pretty smart to notify the Feds that "I believe" the money is clean.. EVEN IF I KNOW PERSONALLY FOR A FACT that the money is derived from personal favors and relations between my "benefactor" and his N. Korean intelligence links.

It creates reasonable doubt that would prevent the law from actually prosecuting me. Because I've formally stated that I believe the money is clean.. Thus, it deprives the government of the argument of "scienter" (that I knowingly took money from an intelligence agency)...

The same can be said of Ritter.. He covered his legal tracks (and being a former counter-intelligence officer, he obviously knows how to do this).

But NOTHING he asserts explains his 180 degree change of opinion about Iraq from 1998 onward, a period of time when THERE WERE NO UNSCOM/UNMOVIC INSPECTIONS in Iraq.

Thus, on WHAT FACTUAL BASIS was his movie, or his opinions based?

There was no basis for his opinion.. Only sheer speculation and $400,000 (as well as the promise of more money later on, I imagine)..

So continue to kiss his @ss if you want and suck up to his flip-flopping ways, and defend his sexual predation.

But his credibility and reputation are shot.. Regardless of the money, or his sexual trolling for young girls, he'll NEVER be able to credibly explain how he told the Senate one thing in 1998, and then totally altered his story afterward..
