1. If I'd been in Iraq that long, I'd be drunk too. nt

2. He didn't sound drunk to me, but I'm no expert.

3. I have to shift into another language recognition mode
whenever he shows up on the Teevee.

However, I am getting the down-under accent down pretty well now. Pretty soon, I'll start using it in public.

Oy!

5. Perhaps they should use subtitles like Oprah did for Susan Boyle. For folks that understand
only North American English.

I like Ware too.

7. I agree. He is a good source in that part of the world.
He does seem uncomfortable when he's in the studio, though...

11. I don't know how long he has been a "TV" reporter. I think not very long.

8. If he is drunk, more power to him
If I was in Iraq/Afghanistan as long as he has, I'd be drinking too!
