Jon on Air America Today
By: Bernard Chazelle
At 9-10pm (EST) today, Jonathan Schwarz will tell the nation what it needs to know about Colin Powell. Live streaming here.
—Bernard Chazelle
ADDED BY JON: Here's the background to what we're covering: Powell's UN address, his post-invasion lies, his whiny self-pity, and his pre-2000 career as investigated by Robert Parry and Norman Solomon.
Great work JS.
You sound very confident and authoritative.

Posted by: Avedon at June 26, 2008 09:09 AMClout seems to be one of the few programs willing to give the time necessary for a real discussion of the body politic. Cheers to them for having you on, you did a fantastic job. Plus, it's nice to finally put a voice to the posts.
