40. I may be missing something in his background
but how did he magically become the top middle east expert in congress? This is the first I've heard of this.

Regardless, I have a lot of respect for him, and he's married to a smart cookie of a wife too, but why are we arguing about Swift Boats now? Why did he effectively lie down four years ago during the SBVT assault, and then compound the matter after all the voting irregularities and just stand down?

I'm just unclear why this is an issue now.

I would like, if you can show me (not as an aggressive challenge, but I'm curious), to know why he's the #1 expert on Pakistan, Iraq, and Iran. I've never seen this attributed to him, so I would like to know.
