Yes. I met him with no cameras or audience. We had about a 5 minute conversation. I was very lucky to be in the right place at the right time.

I believe I would still be in jail captain.
I admire your composure,

Cause Id have smacked the chit out of him...


Hate is such a weak word for how I feel about him.

I met Ronnie once. Shook his hand, while Stars and Stripes photographers took our picture!

But I respected him, and we were never alone.drinker

My point is that I hear from people that I am supposed to be "open-minded". Then I hear people say they "hate" people that they have never even met.
People think that they have every bit of information on a subject. That every bit of information is a matter of public record.
Is it posssibe that not every reason for our actions has come to light.
Maybe for security reasons?

One question. Among many. Are nuclear weapons the only weapons classified as WMD?

No, and he mentions that! Its a very open and honest interview. I think you'll find it informative and interesting. He actually supports the surge.
