And what did we come up with?
US House Rep Bob Filner earned a truest.
As did Cindy Sheehan.
Though the TV and radio work so hard to ignore Iraq, it's very unstable, very violent and not all what Barack's promised.
Ava and C.I. explore fame, stardom and the revival of Dallas on TNT.
Dona roundtables with C.I., Ava, Kat and Wally about last week's Congressional hearings on veterans issues.
We all love Betty's title and tried hard to think of a way to really spotlight it. We came up with this. Again, Betty, pricless! :D
I (Jim) host a roundtable on entertainment issues. Let me note here that we had an article on McGurk and Chon that Ava and C.I. didn't participate in and that just didn't come off interesting no matter how many drafts, we also worked on a drone piece that we couldn't pull off, we attempted an Anne-Marie Slaughter piece tht failed and I forget the other big time waster that wasn't publishable. I decided to call an entertainment roundtable where we used e-mails from last week for topics.
Lentil chips. They should have been so good. They were soooooooooooo bad.
Senator Patty Murray fights to keep veterans on an equal health care playing field.
Did Stein qualify for matching contributions in your state?
Repost from Workers World.
Mike and the gang wrote this and we thank them for it.
And that's what we came up with. We'll see you next week. There are rumors that it will be our summer fiction issue. Probably not.
Peace.
-- Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess, Ava and C.I.
