playing in the background. if you want to see Adam skip the first 18 minutes. Good to see Adam laugh about what happened and frankly looks great. Glad he's back.

Just out of curiosity, and I didn't watch the whole thing, but why do they introduce him as an "Iraq War Veteran"? I'm pretty sure that's not something Adam's proud of, so why do they do that?

He talks about his time in Iraq, he talked about torturing people there.. and how it took him a long time to even admit that to himself.
the whole video is worth watching. even the religious guy in the beginning was interesting.

Good for him.

OK, that makes sense, will watch at some point. I wasn't trying to create a troop-bashing thread here, was just curious how it was relevant. I guess it was.

Mindset of vets. Veterans, whether they agree with or disagree with what they did, tend to take another vets message over a civilians. Ex-vets, particularly combat vets, tend to have a voice that can't be just dismissed as not having "experienced" a situation. It is what it is.

Especially with a Republican audience, from my experience.
