A Congressional Staffer who works closely with Walter Jones', Republican Representative from North Carolina, office right now stated that Jones changed his mind about Iraq after some "difficult soul searching," and that the "growing gap" between the truth about Iraq that plays out in his district and the Republican party line he's supposed to toe in committee hearings has taken a "terrible toll on him."
When I asked Jones' press secretary what led to the shift, she told me it was a combination of "the top-secret briefings, researching the issues, and talking to families."
I heard Jones say on TV today that"GW Bush had stated when he was Govenor of Texas that the then President Clinton should explain an exit strategy for Bosnia to the American people" How interesting.
