1. He wrote "War is a Force That Gives Us Meaning," didn't he?

LOVED that book.

"American Fascism : The Rise of the Christian Right" which will be released in Sept. 2006.

That's one I'd really like to read.

4. Hedges is a NYT correspondent/author... very anti-war.

He was doing a Q&A on "journalism" in America today.... the sad state of affairs.

6. He spoke about that on CSPAN.

He said it was right after the Coward proclaimed Mission Accomplished.

He also mentioned that the fucking NYT reprimanded him for "compromising impartilality" for the newspaper. Betcha Judy the whore had something to do with that. Unbelievable.
