I will be a guest on the Brad and Britt morning show on FM Talk 101.1, WZTK, tomorrow at 8:30. We'll be talking about Tuesday's primary elections, maybe the Hersh thing, and whatever else pops up between now and then...No streaming available... And by the way, I emailed the station several days ago to discuss sponsoring a page at their website, and have heard nothing in return... 9:56:12 AM    comment []

Are you better off now than you were before the United States invaded Iraq? That's the question I try to answer in this morning's newspaper column, "Doing the math on Bush's war," a tally of the successes, failures, and the equations yet unanswered. You can read the whole thing here. 9:51:47 AM    comment []

Washington Times/UPI: "American journalist Seymour Hersh has said there are videotapes of American soldiers sodomizing young Iraqi boys at Abu Ghraib prison." Incorrect. Hersh does not say the attacks are by American soldiers, and he does not specify the age of the boys. I have emailed UPI with a correction. Ditto Aljazeera.net, which makes the same mistakes in its report. 9:21:40 AM    comment []
