Got a solid session of Arbor dirt jumps in this morning. Thank you SIR, may I have another. Oh yes, back to Arbor for an afternoon session. That, or perhaps 63rd, I haven't decided quit yet.

I went to a talk last night at CU given by Scott Ritter, former UN weapons inspector. It was an excellent eye-opening speech. He had worked for the UN through Dessert Storm up until this war started in 2003. I hadn't a clue as to the thoroughness of the investigative work done by the UN.

The mind-blowing statement of the evening came down to this. After numerous re-inspections, Scott Ritter spoke to the CIA, and with absolute certainty, told the CIA that there were no weapons of mass destruction and no means by which to use weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Period. The CIA agent came back to tell Ritter that he believed there were still a dozen or so WMDs. But there would be no need to go looking for them though because they'll always be there.

Over the past two and half years our reasoning for going to war has taken on many different definitions; all of which have been sugar coated by legitimate concerns. I think it is wise to still look at the original question: why did we go to war? Does this question bother anyone else? Does it bother anyone that the official answer given is a lie?

Yup, I feel a little surly today and the Immortal Technique tunes aren't helping either. Speaking of Immortal Technique, he's coming to Boulder at The Fox April 28th. Should be a good show; rally the troops y'all.
