And what did we come up with?
Glen Ford gets another.
This is the first truest for Shamus Cooke.
We doubt it, to answer the question. But April 30th, parliamentary elections are supposed to take place and thug Nouri wants a third term.
Ava and C.I. were going to cover two TV shows. I (Jim) came in on them laughing about what might happen to Saturday Night Live and, when I asked, they filled me on the phone call. I looked on my tablet as they were talking and no one has this story. Would it upset their friend if they wrote about it? No, they said, the network would probably be thrilled to have it out there. So I asked them to write about it.
This was a movie piece that was actually the start of a roundtable. We record them and we were waiting for everyone to join and talking about movies when this film popped up. Rather than make it a transcript piece, we turned it into an article.
Jess explains his favorite TV show.
Short features, as Dona always wants.
The economy sucks.
What we listened to.
Someone had to ask.
Barack is such a fool he never grasped how offensive the rest of the world might find his remark/boasting.
Seymour Hersh has a new article.
Repost of announcement from Senator Patty Murray's office.
Repost from UK Socialist Worker.
Repost from Workers World.
Repost from Senator Bernie Sanders' office.
And we thank you for visiting with us another week.
Peace.
