Obama and the Road Out of Iraq: Author Joshua Frank on FRSC Thursday June 19th 6:30 PM

by Robert Norse
Joshua Frank, regular writer on the Counterpunch website, and author of Red State Rebels, will do a call-in interview/discussion on the topic "Will the Election of Obama Get Us Out of Iraq?" as well as other issues.

Tune in at 101.1 FM or http://www.freakradio.org. E-mail your questions and comments to rnorse3 [at] hotmail.com either before or during the show.
Obama supporter Metteyya Brahmana has been invited to speak, but has a conflict. He is looking for an Obama delegate to support the "Pro" side of the question.

Brahmana was instrumental in publicizing Mayor Ryan Coonerty's anti-homeless ordinances and his shrinking public process at Santa Cruz City Council. In apparent response, county Democrats denied Coonerty an Obama delegate seat. [See Coonerty versus the Progressives" at http://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2008/04/12/18492455.php & "Coonerty to Face Challenge in Obama Delegate Selection" at http://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2008/04/12/18492397.php]

Frank agreed to call back in several weeks when Metteyyana Brahmana would be in the studio.

Obama's recent statement supporting the "Spy on us--We Love It!" bill may have prompted a credibility crisis among a few liberals.
