Rebecca of Sex and Politics and Screeds and Attitude,
Betty of Thomas Friedman Is a Great Man,
C.I. of The Common Ills and The Third Estate Sunday Review,

We thank them all. What did we come up with?

• Truest statement of the week

Iraq War veteran Jonathan Pruden.

• Truest statement of the week II

Michael Ratner racks up another truest.

• Truest statement of the week III

We believe this is the first time anyone with The Atlantic has been awarded a "truest."

• Editorial: The Iraq the US press ignores

It really is amazing how in the tank the US press is.  

• TV: The Vanishing CW

You wanted a CW overview, Ava and C.I. give you one.  This is both a hard hitting look as well as basic reporting -- something Ava and C.I. know how to do even if the Water Cooler Set doesn't.  When's the last time you read Bill Carter or any of the Docker Boys writing about what the affiliates want?  Exactly.  Great piece.

• Revenge thoughts in the lead up to the finale

The finale is this Wednesday.  I (Jim) already was informed by Dona that I'll be watching our baby solo when this broadcasts.  Dona and Ty roundtable on the series with Ann and Rebecca.

• How cute!

A short feature.

• Radio moment of the week

Cindy Sheehan's Soapbox was our pick this week.

• Safe Iraq?

There's what Barack Obama tells the people and what he tells Congress.

• The Incredible Shrinking Barack

A repost of Cedric and Wally's song parody paired with an Isaiah comic.

• Video for the week: Jenkins rocks Occupy

We heard the song performed by Jenkins while listening to Cindy's Soapbox and thought we had a video to please those e-mailing for us to share more videos.

• Senators call for Dignified Burials

Senators Patty Murray and Richard Burr lead the call for dignified burials.

• Jill Stein on the JP Morgan fiasco

Jill Stein is campaign for the Green Party's presidential nomination.

• CeCe McDonald (Kris Hamel)

Repost from Workers World.

• Highlights

Mike and the gang wrote this and we thank them for it.





Peace.
