Hawk,
He has been operating as a private citizen.
Doing the documentary, making speechs.
He seems expert about the chronology of events and worries about the wasted deaths of our soldiers and innocent civilians.
I don't know if he is on the up and up or not.
You know his Bio, Gulf War Marine, Republican.
He criticizes Clinton as much as Bush.
He says he is a patriot.
He sounds like one and he has a narrative that I wish were exposed here so we could discuss.

I am not an expert on all this stuff.

I tried to paraphrase the other day and mostly he was talking about the "history" of the process.

Ultimately he wants the unfettered weapons inspectors to preceed any invasion. His frustration is with the invasion as a first step instead of the 3rd or 4th step.

He is not proSaddam or proIraq. He is proAmerican.

And I am not defending him or his position I am just calling attention to the fact that smart people on this thread are discounting him before giving it a look.

He is the only one speaking out with a point of view contrary to the Administration's current "Copy points".
