2. wow thats Stephen Cleghorn!

3. his son is in iraq now.

he very calmly stated the reasons given to go to war were lies and * has put our children and the world in peril. the rw shill (sorry didn't get his name) tried to blame it all on the cia. same old pass the buck, which never stops with * it appears

8. What was the dad's response when the rw shrill tried to blame it on the

CIA? Did he buy it or does he want the WH to bear some of the responsibility?

Just curious what the military families think of the constant finger pointing?

I would also like to see the military families reaction to the pork in the defense budget while our troops go without the necessary equipment. (golf courses, jet for Rummy, resorts, etc.)

4. eek.. the subject led me to think that MSRNC had procreated..

:)..

I hope that the media (such as it is) will continue to book people with dissenting opinions.. That's the only way we can get the truth out..

One network will get brave, and then another, and so on.. The WH can fight if only one or two do it, but once the finger is out of the dike, there will be no stopping it..

We must continue to pressure the media..

5. mari333, can we look for him

to be on other shows do you know? i thought he had a very persuasive presence.

6. I don't often watch the 'talk' shows but Abrams tonight ....

... left my jaw on the floor.

His 'closing argument' statement was that the Administration needs to come clean quick with what the real reason for invading Irsq was, because people who supported the war are feeling used since there are no WMD's, the world is not safer, and 500 of our soldiers are dead.

I was amazed.

Maybe some of the Media Freeps are catching on.

9. It's not the first time he's said this, either.

He did something similar last week, I think. Made me glad.
