Request: Audio/Transcript of Sabah on OPRAH
Does anyone have an audio clip of this Iraqi woman who was on Oprah today?

If no one else can get it I'll try to get the audio when it repeats tonight

2. Don't have a clip, but did watch part of the show.

There were a couple of incredible segments tucked into the fluff.

Is Sabah the woman from Baghdad? Talking about women in Iraq losing their freedom and living in fear - The sounds of gunfire, afraid to leave their homes - The over-the-counter availability of valium and how so many are taking it just to get through - The lack of electricity - what was it? 2 hrs on, 4 hrs. off? (One woman in the audience was shocked, thought everything was just fine now that Iraq was liberated and several others expressed the same thing.)

Powerful stuff - very brave and strong woman.

painful to watch - and to those women in Oprah's audience, welcome to reality - stuff you won't ever hear on FOX news.

Did I hear Oprah say how difficult it was to get that footage and give thanks to CNN for it?
