1. Iraqi war veteran blasted "flag wavers"
said he has never felt more support for the troops than he has from Cindy's group. This is REAL support, much more meaningful to the troops than a "support the troops" car magnet.

WOW. Never thought I'd see this on CNN.


Then of course they had to cut to somebody saying something negative about the protestors. And, no more live from the press conference.

3. Daryn Kagan almost choking
the intro had to pulled out by her tonsils. The guy in the black T shirt was awesome (Iraq war veteran). Said "this is what real support for the troops looks like and not some plastic yellow ribbon" LOL Then Daryn cut him off.

6. the Iraq War Veteran
Wearing a black tee shirt with Arabic writing rocked. Whoever he was, he was articulate and blunt.. and they showed him live. Once he said his short bit, about REAL support for the troops, CNN cut away to a pre-taped woman/mother? talking about how she supports the president... blah blah blah

I'll tell you, hearing a war veteran saying that "just putting a ribbon on your car is NOT supporting the troops", was powerful.

7. Coming up on CNN international is a story about Cindy, FYI
Watching it on a streaming connection here.. CNN-I is sooooo much better than CNN.

9. Perhaps CNN is finally catching on to the fact that they will NEVER
Outfox FOX. And if CNN wants any kind of a real audience they are going to have to tap into our need for relevant stories-- Aruba just doesn't do it for me.
