KPFK ‘BradCast’: Keep on Iraqin’ Me, Baby…

Share article:

Dick and Dubya are back in the news! Now I wonder how that might have happened. On the upside, it allowed me to play some clips on this week’s show that I first put together for a show back in 2006 (or earlier?)

Anyway, we talk about all of that and more on this week’s BradCast on KPFK/Pacifica Radio, including:

• What was Dick Cheney’s epic trolling of Obama really about? (Hint: Not necessarily Obama or even Democrats).
• Who’s to blame for the current mess in Iraq?
• We take a whole bunch of great calls on all of the above, including one caller with a very interesting defense of Bush and Cheney.
• Some good voting news for Ohio, for a change.
• The fossil-fueled “War on Science” now includes war on science museums.
• Plus, as ever, Desi Doyen with the latest Green News Report (including some epic trolling by Obama of science deniers!)

Enjoy!

    If you read the PNAC tract that they wrote in1998, the Iraq war was designed to go wrong. Horribly wrong, just to the point that absolute chaos would happen. Then the Israelis would get into the middle of the war and the US would pull out and leave the fighting to them. They would then attack Europe to settle old scores. So the Neocons are back just to keep the next phase in place. Please don’t lose track of the big picture. And don’t complain about gas prices, start getting off oil. Peak Oil is coming soon, we as a people can either do something now or see what chaos will ensue in the next 1-3 years. If the politicians aren’t doing anything, TAKE THE INITIATIVE!
