I was watching Morning Joe this am (it’s become my new routine–Sex and the City to bed, MSNBC to wake) and Phil Donahue was on promoting his new movie, Body of War.
It’s interesting, with Petraus in DC testifying and all this discussion about the danger of ending the war there were two pieces on MJ this morning about what it costs us, the danger we’re in to not end this war.
I am ashamed to admit it, but I don’t think about the war every day. I had a friend whose husband was there in the first year and since then I haven’t known anyone personally who is serving. I see the names of the people who died roll on the screen on Sunday morning on This Week with George Stephanapoulos, but I don’t think about it very much.
This war was wrong when it started and it’s still wrong 6 years later. We cannot elect another president who is not fully committed to getting us out of there. We are not more safe, Iraq is not a better place–we have totally screwed up and we need to stop before we make it any worse.
I don’t know how long it will last, but I’m thinking about the war today.
SEE VIDEO and Help the antiwar efforts of Tomas Young and others, pass it on to others.
Promoting this film helps the antiwar movement. I interviewed Phil Donahue in this Representative Press Video, please help amplify his efforts and my efforts, get this video to others. It is important that good crowds show up at the theaters. WEDNESDAY, APRIL 9 the movie is showing in NY and Donahue and the co-director will be there. Spread the word.
See VIDEO: See Body of War, Hear Body of War * Part 2
I want Phil Donahue’s appearance in my video to have been productive so I am really trying to get this video maximum exposure.
