Not lying to congress, fighting in a war and risking his life for what he thought was freedom. Trying to raise awareness of the reality of the war made him a hero. I don't condone lying to congress.

Not rigged, like George W., but he used influence to undermine his opponent that happened to be aiding an enemy of America and a group that was holding American hostages. The latter part is what pisses me off.

I will, but don't count on it too soon. I'm still stuck knee deep in the 9/11 stuff.

I'd say that he is responsible for the needless deaths of American soldiers. That's treason in my eyes. When you choose to be loyal to Saudi money and corporate interests over the good of his own country, you are a traitor.
