so senator warner was either calling barack obama a LIAR OR wanting to find out the name of the army captain senator obama mentioned. WHY did he want to find out the name of the army captain (who by the way IS REAL, abc interviewed him).

He said that he will also raise the issue with Army Secretary Peter Geren and Army Chief of Staff William Casey when they testify next week before his committee.
In the letter, which begins “Dear Barack,” Senator Warner said that the incident most likely occurred while he was chairman of the committee, whose members also include Senator John McCain and Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton. .....
