Since he was having a town hall meeting just up the street, I stopped in to take some photos.

Of the current Republican candidates, the US could do a lot worse.

MoveOn.org event: Meet the Generals

Friday, June 22nd, 2007

Last night I went up to Manchester to this town hall meeting:

Retired Generals Robert Gard and Brigadier General John Johns are coming to Manchester on Thursday and they’re going to speak out against President Bush’s reckless policy in Iraq. This is a great opportunity to see these generals powerfully indict the current war plan—and talk about how we can responsibly exit. Former Maine Congressman Tom Andrews is hosting a town hall meeting with them to talk about what New Hampshire can do to help end the war and they need your help to drive the discussion.

We didn’t stay for all the Q&A, but Marty ?? make a comment that if Kucinich got a respectable 20% or more showing in NH’s primary, that it would have a huge impact on the political discussion of the three front runners.

The war of words between GOP Chairman Fergus Cullen and Rep. Carol Shea-Porter continues.

Last week, Cullen criticized Shea-Porter’s recent speech on the House floor, saying it undermined U.S. troops. Shea-Porter called on Cullen to retract his statement.

Yesterday, Cullen declined to do so. “If she’s going to be against this war, she should have the courage of her convictions and vote to end funding,” Cullen said.

He described last week’s House debate on a resolution expressing congressional disapproval of President Bush’s troop surge in Iraq as “shameful.”

Shea-Porter hit back: “If Fergus Cullen has the courage of his convictions, he should go enlist, because they’re having trouble meeting their quota. He’s young, he’s single and he’s healthy. If he needs to know where the recruiters are, call me.”

Although she opposes the war, Shea-Porter said, she’s “working in a bipartisan manner to protect the troops and keep them funded with everything they need.”

Boston Progressive Talk Radio is gone!

Saturday, December 23rd, 2006

Yesterday I was driving around and one of the kids wanted to listen to Air America (WKOX) from
Boston — It is now a Spanish language station. The site “Boston’s Progressive Talk” is now redirects to Rumba 1200AM. What happened?

Where O where can I get my daily Young Turks, Stephanie Miller and Ed Shultz in the Greater Boston/NH area? Damn this sucks.
