CNN'S WOLF BLITZER DOES INTERVIEW WITH REPUBLICAN SENATOR GORDON SMITH WHO ON THE FLOOR OF THE SENATE SAID THE IRAQ WAR MAY BE ILLEGAL.

This is a man who has studied and reflected on what is happening in Iraq- and has in hiw own words- "come to the end of his rope". The dying US troops really are effecting him. He is not pointing fingers, rather, he accepts responsibility as part of the US Government. "What I say I say not in anger, but in sorrow."
