Scott Ritter allegedly kicked off flight to Russia; passport seized

17. Right, Cheney wanted everybody to think Iraq was armed to the teeth

with nasty bioweapons and Ritter was courageous enough to tell the truth. Bush was a dunce and Cheney was an evil old fuck who saw oil to grab and a stepping stone to an equally phony war against Iran and even more oil to grab.

I'd think they used the online sex sting to fuck Ritter over in 2001 if the guy hadn't been stupid enough to fall for it again in 2009.

Ritter, angry at being told that there's a reason jail bait is called jail bait, now wants to work for the enemy.

I think they did him a favor by lifting his passport, honestly. I doubt he knows enough to be useful to Putin and wouldn't be treated all that well over there, trotted out for media appearances for a few months and then seen as an untrustworthy foreign agent, at best.

Like you, I see a guy who did a job, did it well, and spoke truth to power. I also see a guy with a sexual screw loose that makes him want girls barely past puberty, or in the middle of it.* I can appreciate the first and condemn the second. I have to wonder how many girls he's hurt over the years.


*Girls who self identify online as 15-16 can be as young as 11 or 12, something both the cops and Ritter undoubtedly knew.
