Wow - This Guy On Sam Seder Really Has A Handle On What....

[global1]

is going on in Iraq. They need to get this guy on more often. I hope *Co isn't listening to him - because if they are - this guy is in trouble. He has the best understanding of what is going on in Iraq than anyone I've ever listened to. I got to get his book - I think it is called - In The Belly of A Green Bird. He says that the situation is worse than any thing we've heard and it is not getting better. He says that unfortunately the news media gets critized for not reporting on the good things but that the media should be critized for not reporting how bad it really is.

2. Iraq

That was an interesting topic that Sam was asking what REALLY!! is going on in Iraq. the reporter said things are a lot worst than the US media is reporting. he said there is no good news coming out of Iraq. Sam sould have asked him how much of the insurgents support this peace plan from the PM of Iraq. the story today is from this media that the insurdents want us out of there country in two years.
