A Critical Ear

Yesterday’s edition of the show included an extended discussion of  the Petraeus testimony, an update on the Colombian trade agreement, a brief discussion of events in Ecuador, and of former President Carter’s visit to Palestine. Available for download from WRFU or on Pacifica’s Audioport. Starting, of course, with the Interworld Radio news bulletin.

And some advance notice: next week we’ll be interviewing author Allison Hantschel about her book “Special Plans” and neo-con Douglas Feith, whose memoir is due out shortly. Send us an email with any questions you want to ask her.

Yesterday’s edition of A Critical Ear is now online. It features a discussion of Bush’s signing statements (particularly the recent one attempting to override the ban on permanent bases in Iraq) and then a fairly unique 30 minutes, where we simulcasted a live phone interview that Bob was doing with Radio Islam in Chicago, concentrating on the policies of the candidates regarding Iraq (particularly Clinton, Obama, McCain and Romney).
