Anyone have a snailmail or email address for Aaron Broussard?
Just spent half an hour on the Internets trying to find an address for him so I can send him an "atta boy" letter, but cannot find one. Mostly I find links to the MTP interviews but not an address. Can anyone help?

10. Thanks for the email addy...
I sent him an email to let him know how much I appreciate his courage in telling the truth, not once, but twice. Thank God there are men who have the guts not to back down.

Russert tried to be intimidating but he ended up looking like a fat stuck pig.

11. He sure did!
Just sent Mr. Broussard an email, letting him know how much i admire him for taking a stand. I hope it helps him. Not that he's a wimp or anything, but he has been so much that I think it will be good for him to know that there are many people who care about him.

14. Thanks for the address. Was searching for one...
Broussard's voice rings with a rare sincerity and honesty. Maybe after all this is over, he might consider running for some more high-profile office. We need more voices like his.
I sent him a message in French as well--he is obviously of Cajun origin and must be proud of his French-speaking roots. Those old bayou-bottom Cajuns are tough as alligator hide and don't take no bull-shit. They've been true survivors for centuries.

5. Been thinking about writing him too...
His bearing witness what's really going on down in NO has been great to see. Real hero from what little I know of him.

8. My email to him
There are a lot of us who are disgusted and horrified by the way you were treated today on Meet the press. Tim Russert is part of the creme brulle press, who are Bush apologists and just plain old White House stenographers. It is documented that he is a neo-conservative with ties to Karl Rove and others in the White House. He used that show to try and make you look like a liar because he was TOLD TOO. That is the truth, all of us who use the internet for our news, know this because the so called Main stream media are a pac of liars. You showed the world your humanity, and instead of seeing that Russert used you , to TRY and prove that the Bush administration wasn't at fault, that you exaggerated and lied...WELL...THE WORLD KNOWS and YOUR FELLOW AMERICANS KNOW...that Russert is just a Karl Rove pawn, I am sure with the publicity this has gotten on the internet, that Russert has gotten thousands of letters telling him how cruel and ignorant he is......He should of used the time to show the LIES of the administration....Next time you even think of giving this administration credit.....think twice...they have been after you ...and they almost succeeded...using Tim Russert to try and make you look like a liar and fraud....Learn your lesson, don't trust them.
Good luck with the rebuilding.

16. Yes that was quite the interview. That man knows how to be honest
with himself. Not covered in layers of bullshit like most politicians. Though it may just be the situation or the lack of sleep that has him so honest & truthful.

17. I don't think it's that he knows how to be honest
it's just that he is honest. This is the guy who gets the job done. He doesn't look for rewards beyond getting paid for the time he puts in. He does what he does because he understands how much it means to serve the least of us. This man is an Angel among Demons.
To borrow a phrase from a poser, "he's the real deal".

18. I meant that he has nothing to hide. If he made a mistake it was totally
Edited on Mon Sep-26-05 11:56 PM by applegrove
honest and easily explained. The times he was in & what he heard led him to make statements that were misleading and easily understandable - and he was right to question the greater error... why are people sussing out details when to any human it would be obvious he was authentic and how sad that is... that his authenticity is disected while his parish is still in crisis. And who are the assholes who "remove" the emotion & the truth of that from the details.

I guess I sounded jaded. Some people in these political times - don't seem to be connected to their gut. It is rare to see. Even Democrats. I guess I should have said "he is still connected to his heart". He still has that truth with him.

Anyway - I do not know the man. Before or during the storm. I just saw him last night on a playback of the discussion with that idiot Russ whoever. And the laughter when they though they had him. The laughter in the background was creepy.
