Today's political linkage: homage to Seymour Hersh
1. Interview at Berkeley
2. The New Yorker's war coverage, which has been fucking amazing. See especially everything by Hersh, especially the deservedly-famous The Gray Zone.
3. Transcription of Hersh's speech at the ACLU.
4. Hersh's book, Chain of Command. If literacy tests weren't inherently evil, I'd say no one should vote unless they've read this book.
5. And I can't help including these:
A. "The Republican Party calls Democratic Sen. John Kerry "the most liberal person to ever run for president" in a new television ad that began airing Friday"
B. "a liberal ain't some sandal-wearin' pussy who sobs for the spotted owl while abortin' children, invitin' Osama Bin Laden over to dinner for sensitivity training, and donatin' money to French Faggots Against America. No, motherfuckin' liberals got shot down tryin' to make sure you had an eight-hour work day, motherfuckin' liberals got lynched for sayin' people oughta be equal, motherfuckin' liberals got beaten down tryin' to stop the Vietnam War."
