I Was Just Interviewed By WBAI Radio!
RationalThought110:
In addition, you could also say next time that since the reporter hates the US so much, he should move to a different country.
And link the reporter to Moveon.org, DailyKos and Code Pink.
Lisa:
Thanks guys. All good suggestions.
SavetheWest:
That is terrific and you held your ground really well!!!
:clap:
In regards to body armour for the troops, I would bring up that the underlying issue is that President Clinton cut the military so dramatically that Bush had to respond to a diminished military and build it up over a number of years. Also, no president will be able to forsee every challenge in the country and wars in the past were fought with much less or incorrectly routed resources. The armour problem was addressed and when troops in WW2 didn't have needed resources or the French incorrectly took on German troop advances, people then didn't harp on the failures. They learned from them and focused on the enemy. The focus on partisan nitpickings while we are at war with a ruthless, brutal enemy is folly and dangerous.
Also, I would challenge the idea of terrorism. I would say that terrorism is a tactic of the weaker side but the bottom line is we have a war of ideals, peoples and religions. We should yield the right to use terrorism against an enemy if they do not follow the rules of war. (This would be one approach)
You could also say that McCain was drafted and America fought an enemy with imperfect resources and there was no smart bomb technology. Also, that McCain had targeted civilians is actually a completely disproven charge that not even the left wing mainstream media or the Obama campaign have taken on.
Lisa:
Great points, North West JTF.
And Angry Chinese Kahanist, I have no idea when the interview will air. And in all honesty, I'm self conscious about hearing my own voice.
Shlomo:
