Hey --
Another Sunday.
First up, we thank all who participated this edition which includes Dallas and the following:
The Third Estate Sunday Review's Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess and Ava,
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,
Kat of Kat's Korner (of The Common Ills),
Mike of Mikey Likes It!,
Elaine of Like Maria Said Paz),
Cedric of Cedric's Big Mix,
Ruth of Ruth's Report,
Wally of The Daily Jot,
Trina of Trina's Kitchen,
Marcia of SICKOFITRDLZ,
Stan of Oh Boy It Never Ends,
Isaiah of The World Today Just Nuts,
and Ann of Ann's Mega Dub.
And what did we come up with?
This week we had Arundhati Roy with a great commentary.
And War News Radio came back with another show.
And we loved this as well.
The editorial was rushed. It ended up being C.I. and me (Jim) and we're not sure if it works or not. We shaped what we could.
Ava and C.I. wrote an amazing piece.
Dona did another Congressional roundtable with our four Congressional correspondents: Kat, Wally, Ava and C.I.
Years ago, we did a piece on Diana Ross that C.I. and Betty thought was going to be celebrating her recordings. Nope. And they were furious. They will tell you that is the piece they hate. For years, I have offered that we could do another look at Diana to make up for it. During this edition, Betty found out that Stan, Isaiah, Kat, Marcia, Ty and Dona, Ann, and C.I. had seen Diana Ross in concert for the Reunion Tour. She got with C.I. and the two of them tossed this out. Jess and I worked on this after we watched a bootleg of the Philadelphia concert. Otherwise, that's the full credit.
We support the Iraqi protesters.
If you read Kat's site, you got a hint this was coming about a month ago.
Two readers asked if we could consider doing a piece on Sheena Easton. Not sure how strong this is but we enjoyed writing it.
Law and Disorder Radio talks Lynne Stewart.
Angelina Jolie's remarks.
Repost from Workers World.
From Senator Murray's office.
Mike and the gang wrote this and we thank them for it.
Peace.
-- Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess, Ava and C.I.
