> But he has values he is willing to stand and fight for

I'm not sure that is a good trait. Fighter, stubborn?

> he is not a coward

What makes you think that?

> and he is not a hypocrite

Yes he is. From Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypocrite
"Hypocrisy is the act of pretending to have beliefs, virtues and feelings that one does not truly possess."

He pretended that he believed that Iraq had involvement wtih 9/11, Al Queda, nuclear weapons... when he didn't. In this case, being a lair, caused him to be a hypocrite.
