1. I saw him on C-span and he was very good.
He is old and slow talking but he makes good sense. He handled the wing nut callers I heard. What struck me was the way the host kept trying to get him to say something good about Bush but she couldn't do it. Next she had a wing nut talk show bimbo on to give the other side of the story and it was such a contrast between Schlesinger's intellect on our side and the wing nut talking head bimbo on their side.

The sorry thing I think is that intelligence doesn't carry the day anymore in this country.

3. Unfortunately, you're right...
T&A beats knowledge and wisdom any day with most folks... much less threatening.

:hi: from an ex-Boulderite, BTW.

2. Wouldn't be surprised if Bushco drops some nukes too
I am sure the war for world domination will escalate if Bushco gets a mandate and Congress doesn't have enough guts to stop him. I am sure he's planning to bomb Iraq into submission first, then he will turn elsewhere.

5. Certainly the low-yield "good" nukes!
Whatever.

4. Immediately after the "election"
when he wins by hook or crook, we will flatten Falujah with massive bombing and completely subdue Iraq with the help of the CIA stooge Allawi.

Our next move will be into Syria and then Iran to satisfy the Likud arm of the Republican Party. Korea will be the last dish on the banquet table and I believe Nukes will be used.

God help the USA, because no one else will or can. With the help of the lackey press and the spineless Democrats there will be no return for us.

6. I fear Schlessinger is a dying breed
A man of intellect and integrity

and he does not hold much hope for the future
