I'm not know for my love of members of the Democratic party, and most of the ones who get the limelight seem to be getting more and more caustic. But since I read his quotes On the capture of Saddam (scroll down to Diplomacy is Critical) compared to certain other one-time Democratic presidential contenders, I came to respect him - both for his views and for having the balls to stand up for them in a party that seems to put politics above anything else in the Iraq conflict. It's a shame that he doesn't get nearly the respect for being a maverick that McCain does. (While I agree with McCain on certain issues, like his dislike of government pork, I disagree with his namesake finace bill, which I feel hurts free speech).
Anyway, he has some more intelligent statements on Iraq.
