A Christmas message for George W. Bush from William Rivers Pitt

[Raven]

My son is up here in NH, and played this for me earlier.

Merry Christmas, George.

[FarLeftRage]

3. Most excellent!

[Virgil]

4. Very good news that Truthout expands its messages

I check truthout regularly. I only watch news on television for its entertainment value. It is clearly out to herd the thoughts of people and not to give them true information to come to their own realty. The media sucks. The Internet is our only hope of being fenced in from the truth and this new feature at truthout is nothing less than patriotic service.

Thanks for the link.

7. I still remember how one of the many little things

that changed American public opinion about the Vietnam War was Life magazine's publishing the pictures of one week's dead.

Of course, Truthout doesn't have anywhere near the audience, but this is the kind of thing that needs to be hammered into the consciousness of the American people.

11. I think the turning point was Pete Seeger on the Smothers Brothers show...

...singing "Waist Deep in the Big Muddy." Remember that? It gave me goose bumps then and it still does now.

That song needs to come back, in a big way.

10. A Christmas Kick

12. Hits in the Pitt of the stomach

Any mention or remembrance of those who are dying for .... little or nothing, gets me... gets me bad.

It's so very hard to hear this on Christmas eve night.

And so necessary.

I wish this was broadcast on every major news outlet.... instead of the current seasonal sales figures..

One question.... is there any archive for past messages?

Thanks for posting this.

19. I played this last night...

right after I had a fight with my sis-in-law about using racist language. I was already on the edge and this overview pushed me right over into angry tears. Very cathartic. Raven, you must be so proud of that boy of yours. Give him a hug for me wouldya? :-) Oh, and here's one for you too. :hug:

21. Wow

...

[Generic Other]

22. Thunderous anger!

Will's voice crackles with indignation, contempt, and lightning bolts of sulphur. I loved it.

Fiery enough to wake up Cotton Mather on a Sunday morning!

23. Does truthout officially support Democratic candidates?

Or are they just a news source?

[jmowreader]

24. Holy c***, dude!

What a powerful piece!

Too bad the unelected fraud will never hear it.

[ParticipatoryDem]

25. Who does Truth Out endorse?

Have they made a choice? Does Truth Out have a preferred policy on Iraq?

26. Thanks for posting this Raven. Hope you all have a great holiday

Take care.
