6. Ava, as always, spoke eloquently about her work, the war, etc...
Surprisingly, TJ Holmes (weekend anchor) was very reverent towards her (although he did call her a "16 year old child").

All in all. a great interview. Ava, :yourock:

7. She was talking about her website "love takes courage" and
that her uncles are in the military and support her right to speak up, because they know she supports them and the troops.

She also talked about the death threats she received.

And that anchorman asked her if she is ready to endorse a candidate for 2008. She said that there is a big field of good candidates out there and that the ones who don't have the fund raising power are not covered by the media enough.

10. OOOPS. I must have had love on my mind. Of course it is "PEACE"
I think it is too early. It is not even 8 am yet here. :hangover:

9. Hope there's a vid clip - I was shoveling snow, not watching TV!
The MSM took notice of Ava? Lordy - what's next? The MSM broadcasts the truth about the Bush Crime Family?? :yourock: Ava!

11. She was awesome
Ava knocked my socks off. She answered every question wth great poise and intelligence. My first thought was how much smarter she seemed than most of the
talking heads on CNN! They need to hire her or give Ava her own show!

GREAT job Ava!

12. She was terrific!
I was channel surfing when I heard the announcer say something about a 16 year old peace advocate. I knew it had to be Ava. She's as impressive on camera as she is in her posts and on her blog. If you read this thread, Ava, just want you to know you're an amazing young lady. :applause:

13. Ava was great!
They gave her really nice coverage. The anchor mentioned a couple of times that she supports the troops, but not the war.

I've now seen two DUers on TV (Will Pitt being the other)

14. Check out Paul Thompson, another DUer who is in 9/11 Press For Truth film...
... and was also the featured interviewee on Link TV a couple of weeks ago when talking about the movie then.

15. It's astounding to me that we have a 16 yr.old young lady
WHO IS MORE INTELLIGENT THAN THAT SQUATTER IN THE OVAL OFFICE!

I saw the interview,it was great. Her parents have to be soooo proud.I admire Ava so much.She is such a caring,thoughtful person.The rightwingnuts could learn a lot from her if they wasn't so overcome with hate.
