3. Which Issue?

You didn't watch the interview, did you?

You have no clue what is in this 14 minute clip. You are assuming it is about 911, aren't you?

To be charitable, let's assume that I'm wrong and you watched and listened to the whole interview - you obviously disagree with Asner and believe that the Viet Nam War, the Grenada & Panama military actions & the Iraq War were all justified and moral wars.

I'm sorry, I believe you are not a "good liberal" since you do think "war without end" is the way to deal with the rest of the world.

btw, shame on you for doing a "hit & run" post to libel a man based upon an interview you most obviously didn't watch. That says a whole lot about you, and it is a repugnant Republican attribute. Not worthy of a DUer or true liberal.

Like this one..

I will edit my response.
He is a good liberal who is dumb as fuck when it comes to 911.

A non apology apology. Another repugnant Republican trait. Keep it up and pretty soon I'll have you pegged

... and Ed is a "truther," which is clearly why it was posted here. Unfortunately, the only thing we learn from those 3 minutes is that Ed is another victim of Richard Gage's "experts" and that he thinks anyone who isn't a "truther" must be a sheep or an intellectual coward. That certainly implies that he hasn't actually investigated Gage's claims to any meaningful extent. Whether or not he agrees with the many qualified experts making cogent and valid arguments against those claims is up to him, but (just like Mark Crispin Miller) he seems to be unaware that they even exist. I love Ed for his progressive politics and anti-war activism, so this makes me very sad. I'm anti-war, but I'm also anti-bullshit.
