Oprah brought in some middle eastern experts who talked about Iraq and
the suffering or the Iraqi people since Desert Storm. The speakers
pointed out that the desire of the Bush administration to take out one
man will have a devastating effect on the Iraqi people. Dan Rather also
talked about his interview with Saddam Hussein. Apparently Hussein was
curious about George W. Bush and the will of the American people to
attack Iraq.

The speakers also explained that the U.S. had worked with several
dictators in the past and actively aided Saddam during the Reagan
administration to keep the Islamic fundamentalist movement in Iran form
spreading. Until the invasion of Kuwait, Iraq and the U.S. were friends.
The speakers also explained that a lot of the chemical and biotoxins
technology has came form the U.S. and other European countries.

While I am writing Bush came on the air and tried to give a contrite
explanation why the U.S. should invade Iraq. Nothing new here. IMHO
Oprah did a much better job of explaining the Iraqi situation. Watch the
rest of the Oprah series tomorrow.

Was every single guest anti-war?

Why watch a show that is deliberately unbalanced?

I'm not interested in participating in any anti-war teach-ins, thank
you.

Does everything have to be an even debate for one to learn? Can information
not be given and then you decide what to take from it.

When a teacher taught you 2+2 is 4 did you cry that you wanted someone to
provide a 2+2=5 rebuttal, as you do not want one sided information.

Oprah's show began with her issuing the disclaimer, "This is NOT saying what is right and what is wrong. It is simply to show you what Iraq, Saddam and the Iraqi people are."

It was VERY reassuring to see some sensible people on national media these days. Sorry to hear you have such a pineapple stuck in your arse.

Any mention of the PNAC agenda for global domination?

It's a shame to leave the key piece out of the whole puzzle.

President Bush's legitmate power ends at the US territorial 12 mile limit.
Beyond that point, he is just another unelected dictator imposing his will
on people who didn't - and can't - vote for him. If he wants to lead the
world, he must also be accountable to it.

Steve L has a fixed position and the things that disturb many of us casue
him joy.

We aren't happy about the right wing republican agenda to wreck the UN,
undermine the EU and dominate the world by military force.

Steve L avoids these issues and sticks to the 'talking points'.

No. She had Ken Pollock on. She's had him on before and he seems
pretty Hawkish. Oprah's show was fair and balanced.

Oprah would be the most brilliant president in U.S. history. She's
the greatest success story of all time. A poor black girl who becomes
one of the richest, most admired, most influential people on Earth.
When you combine money, influence, and admiration, she's probably the
most successful person alive. And she cam from NOTHING!

To earn a billion dollars and 32 Emmys in a field as competitive,
improvisational, insecure, and oversaturated as TV talk shows, she
would have to be brilliant.

And she's an Oscar nominated actress to boot!

As British actress and Cambridge grad Thandie Newton said of Oprah
"She's a very strong technical actress and it's because she's so
smart. She's acute. She's got a mind like a razor blade."

We should be thankful that she never did any nude scenes.
