13. Great interview!!

Pitt:
I'm in this incredible little spot...yesterday there was a row of cars stretched tothe 3rd tele pole, now I can't see the end of the cars...lined up crosses Arlington West cemetery stretching down the road...

Randi asks about smears against Cindy.

Took her more than a year to come to grips with what happened at that meeting...rightwingers are so afraid of her...she's a mosquito in their side...the media is out here...stuck on the Crawford beat when George Bush takes his month long vacation...are focusing on her...

14. this is one of the best interviews I ever heard on Randi's show

He is really giving it like it is and not holding back anything. Wow. To think that so many people listening to Air America are going to hear Will is great!!!

15. Asked to come up with one word to describe Bush:

Pitt:
"One word: GIN"

Randi: "You think he's hitting the sauce?" She suggests coke jaw.

Pitt: "Fetal alcohol syndrome."

16. FAS

What are the characteristics of children with FAS?

FAS is the severe end of a spectrum of effects that can occur when a woman drinks during pregnancy. Fetal death is the most extreme outcome. FAS is a disorder characterized by abnormal facial features, and growth and central nervous system (CNS) problems. If a pregnant woman drinks alcohol but her child does not have all of the symptoms of FAS, it is possible that her child has an alcohol-related neurodevelopmental disorder (ARND). Children with ARND do not have full FAS, but may demonstrate learning and behavioral problems caused by prenatal exposure to alcohol. If you think a child may have FAS or other alcohol-related effects, contact a doctor. Children with FAS or ARND may have the following characteristics or exhibit the following behaviors:

small for gestational age or small in stature in relation to peers;
facial abnormalities such as small eye openings;
poor coordination;
hyperactive behavior;
learning disabilities;
developmental disabilities (e.g., speech and language delays);
mental retardation or low IQ;
problems with daily living;
poor reasoning and judgment skills;
sleep and sucking disturbances in infancy.
