Harkin on floor talking about right-wing dominance of Armed Forces Radio
(CSPAN2)http://www.c-span.org/watch/cspan2_rm.asp?Cat=TV&Code=C...

He's introducing an amendment on it with Dorgan.

In about an hour, Levin's amendment for an independent commission on indefinite detention, black sites, ghost detainees and torture. Will be voted on.

1. I'm watching!
I knew AFR was heavily skewed conservative, but I didn't relize the full extent of the imbalance.

6. Harken: I'm sure Limbaugh will now say
that Harken wants to take me off the air. Limbaugh is afraid that our Armed Services just might tune him out. ... Maybe they don't want Ed S. because he talked about Deputy Secretary Barber's coaching the troops about what to say on the photo-op with the President.

11. John Warner now defending
the Armed Services programming. ... The 33 Armed Services Stations around the world decide the programming. They choose from a mix of programs they wish to air.

18. Limburger says what the Bushies want to hear
Schultz, from what I hear, tells the unflattering truth about the regime.

I just listened to Senator Harkin (he was great!!!).. but do they still have to vote, or is Big Eddie going to be added to AFR for sure?

17. According to the e-mail the Pentagon did it without
being compelled by congress. I guess they figured they best do it before it became a big issue before the public.
