5) Ron Paul--I would bet a discussion of his movement and what is going on with it would be fascinating. It's getting almost zero coverage in the MSM. His group rocked my state's Republican convention (Missouri) recently.

I think it is a good idea, but I would like to see the interview focused rather than wide-ranging. I would like to heard Ron Paul on how he thinks the USA could return all troops back to our own soil and fund the military at a rate equal to no more than any other country.

In other words, how do we end the empire?

I am sure that his economic views are fascinating as are his views on civil rights, but war and empire drive it all. Plus, an interview works better if you do not talk about everything under the sun.

The above opinion worth what you paid for it.

Do I understand you to be saying that Glenn should only interview people he (or you) agree with on all issues?

As for me, I would love to hear him interview Satan if he could get the dark knight to come on the show. That would be a hot interview!

And it's one, two, three,
What are we fighting for?
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn,
Next stop is Vietnam;
And it's five, six, seven,
Open up the pearly gates,
Well there ain't no time to wonder why,
Whoopee! We're all gonna die.

The strongest verse of the song was:

Well, come on mothers throughout the land,
Pack your boys off to Vietnam.
Come on fathers, don't hesitate,
Send 'em off before it's too late.
Be the first one on your block
To have your boy come home in a box.

I have read Hitchhiker's Guide many times, but when someone says "thanks for the fish" I think of Country Joe and the Fish.

Yes, Woodstock. I remember those fellows and pretty girls. They are mostly all old now; except for the dead and a few of the more magically inclined.

Why does it seem that they are all voting Republican and trusting the government? After the Pentagon Papers, I never trusted a politician again. I have a life time of evidence the government goons hate we "little people".

I was told that in a commie country that if there was a "knock on the door in the night" that you were in deep shit. In America they bust down the door and never knock these days. My sheriff has a tank! I think he wants an air force next.

I don't know any more. After Chicago, it seemed that the Democrats just left the "little guy" to go Cheney himself while the Republicans sold the idea that killing was fun and profitable as long as only the poor kids joined up.

The founders did not envision a standing army, and now our army stands on the ground of over a hundred countries and we kill women and children as if they were rats in our collective basement.

America, "city on a hill"? No, I think not.

Now, that was rambling for the lady who claims to be "older and wiser" that all the rest of us.
