TYT is taking a day off today (and staunch Hillary supporter Michael Shure will be guest hosting Monday to give a different perspective), but you can still watch the loop of shows from earlier this week.

PS---You can always watch TYT Live from 3-5 pm ET, with a Rolling Post Game 5-7 pm daily Monday-Friday at www.theyoungturks.com The RPG often contains political talk but also many non-political topics to lighten things up (and yes, that audio may not necessarily be work-safe).

Also, if you can't watch live, the 3-5pm portion of the show (politics) streams the rest of the day, all day right after the Post Game Show ends leading up to the initial show at 3pm.

1. I posted about this yesterday..........
Edited on Fri Mar-14-08 09:46 AM by samplegirl
yet the D.U.ers are so consumed with Hillary & Obama bashing they can't see this as a big threat. We have much bigger problems if Bush Co. can find a yes man.

2. Fallon knows whats going on
and he wants NO part of it. He did not resign because he was tired.

5. Admiral Fallon should round the other Generals up
and tell us and the Congress what is really being planned.

6. If Gates wasn't all for war with Iran, he wouldn't have been appointed by Bush.
Wake the fuck up.

7. Eh
to be fair, Gates has shown some positive signs on Iran.

With that said, this is BAD news.

8. Bush promised the troops, the generals not the politicians would decide when it was time to withdraw
he just forgot to mention he would fire any general who didn't agree with the one politician that matters to him.

The Liar in Chief.

9. Why shouldn't Iran attack us now?
They'd be within their rights to respond to a threat to their country. Preemptively, as it were.
