On Point


Tonight I was listening to the rebroadcast of On Point on WBR the local NPR station. Today Tom Ashbrook talked to former soldiers from Iraq and Afghanistan. The discussion was about the how soldiers are dealing with the loss of their fellow soldiers. They discuss deals with the militaries culture, how they view themselves, and their ideas on the war they are fighting.

It’s a perspective you never get to hear. The discussion is raw and emotional. If you haven’t had an opportunity to hear it you really owe it yourself and to them to give it a listen. There is a link below.

I did, and I'm so glad. Thanks for the link, Scott. The interviews are heardbreaking and give a new depth to my loathing for Bush who presides with his hateful smirk so enthusiastically over the slaughter.
