Scorsese wasn't always a filmmaker either..

I imagine that he didn't get his very first, no experience attempt in the industry fully funded. Yep, Any ex-marine that wants to make a little documentary (non-profit) gets $400k thrown at him...LOL

12 years as a Marine Corps intelligence officer isn't dedication? He only leaves to head a team who's mission is to rid Iraq of WMD. Definitely no dedication there..

Since when do think Marines are so shallow? That if you dangle some cash in front of them they will commit treason at the first opportunity?

No, 12 years in the service does not impress me too awfully much. Clearly he could have stayed in the service and continued to serve his country instead of serving Saddam. As far as $400k being just "some cash"...lots of folks have betrayed their country for an awful lot less.

Yeah, why on earth would any institution hire someone to speak about the events that have led to what your leader has called "the greatest challenge in our nation's history".. I'm sure they'd much rather have Coulter.. with all her intelligence experience.

It seems that they would hire someone with more current experience/knowledge than Ritter...unless of course, he changed his story and said what they wanted to hear....Then he suddenly was in demand to speak at the liberal event du jour.

I wonder if having your country bombed to hell and back makes you lose track of stuff... hmmmm.. I wonder. Maybe when your country is bombed to smithereens things actually get, you know, destroyed...

Lost in Albania eh? Wow. How many weapons inspectors did they have in Albania? I bet you a gazillion dollars that there are ZERO WMD unaccounted for in any former communist republics. I'm good for it, really.

Of course Albania was not bombed...and they didn't even know where their WMD stockpiles were themselves. The WMDs were not even hidden and were lost in a very small country for 30 years! Imagine if, like Iraq, they had 12 years to hide them!

Iraq clearly and admittedly failed to provide documentation of the destruction of their WMD (as they had agreed to after the first gulf war) before being bombed...that is, of course, why they were ultimately bombed.
