Tony, my friend, she makes several good points here. I haven't seen the show, but just reading your téte-a-téte I think I can gather that she was indeed being as unbiased as can be. I despise the conversative right-wing evangelical agenda just as you do, and I'm sure Maggie does (though I'm not speaking for her)...would you have a news show refuse to interview folks like that? Then her show would be just like AINA, who refuses to hear progressive, sane (and more left-of-center) viewpoints.

>That's why I said on the show, even though I have traditionally voted for the Democrats in the past, I have been disappointed. I also said on the show that I did NOT support the war on Iraq, and as you fully well know both parties supported the war. So what makes the Democrats better than the Republicans? Both parties supported 13 years of sanctions on the children of Iraq. In fact when Madellein Allbright, a Democrat working for Bill Clinton and enforcing his agenda, was asked if it "was it fair that innocent Iraqi children have to pay the price for the thirteen long years of sanctions against Iraq" she said "yes, I think it's fair". So what makes your silly party any better than John Kanno's?

Anything is better than what we have now, which is the good old boys network war-mongering mentality, oblivious to the minorities's needs and cultural nuiances. The least we can do is replace these boys with some Assyrians and open up the white-circuit traditionally held by white boys!

>We cannot fight the U.S. governement and it's structural framework by denying the opportunity to the John Kannos of the world. There will always be people to take Republican seats in congress, the same way they will do in the senate. Why not change their make-up from white men to Assyrian men and women?

>You are only fooling yourself if you think John Kanno is your enemy. You have 266 seats in the U.S. government who know nothing about Assyrians, have never heard of Assyrians, nor could they care less about Assyrians, and John Kanno is NOT one of them, Dennis Cardosa is!
