You are the best thing I have heard in a long time. I saw you twice on MSNBC yesterday and you were fantastic. And then to hear you on Air America. It is such a treat. And thanks so much. Keep doing what you do. We are listening.

Hello Jack,
I just turned you on at Air America, and really enjoyed your CIA perspective on torture in America. I've heard from people online, claiming to know CIA men like yourself, state that morale at the CIA is down because most CIA folks believe torture works and should be on the table. Could you speak to that?
Listening to you on Air America. Sorry to destroy your arguement, but Libya doesn't pay taxes on the property in Englewood. "City officials are also irked that police may have to work overtime to protect the leader of a country that has been exempt from paying more than $1 million in property taxes on the 4.7 acre estate."

You commented on the value of the "college education". I wonder sometimes. I listen to OldTimeRadio. Even when you listen to the Teenage Comedy programs of the late '40s and early '50s the young people may never have attended higher education, but they revealed a level of intelligence that you can't find on the Disney Channel, or the other Youth channels, in spite of the technological edge. Many of them graduated high school and were equipped with the ability to read, write, and most importantly, think.
That being said, if I go retro--H.L. Mencken, likely the leading journalist and personality of the mid-twentieth century never went to college--he was perhaps the most intelligent newspaper man of this time. John L. Lewis never went to college, yet he was able to speak up to the president of the United States. Eugene V. Debs, too, never went to college. Yeah, did I forget Lech Wallensa, turned Poland around from a Russian Soviet sattlelite to proud independant nation. He was an electrican at the Danzig port facility.
Once a high school education provided you with everything you needed to function on a rather high level. Today . . .
We're losin' it.
