This Sunday night, HBO will be premiering the documentary "Baghdad ER" . . .

There's a loon loose in DOD.  What did they think would happen when they authorized this?

"There's a loon loose in DOD. What did they think would happen when

I suspect that some poor Public Information Officer didn't do enough
"due diligence" on Amy Goodman/Democracy Now!/Pacifica Radio prior
to the project.

BUT, maybe at some point they decided "Amy Goodman needs her primetime shot.
As soon as FOX News gets ahold of this, she'll be not just a well-known loon
on a fringe network. She'll be exposed nation/world-wide as a fringe nutburger."

I suspect that Goodman's following will be cheering the show...but they
were applauding her before this.
But when Joe and Josephine Six-Pack see it, they'll probably just be
awed by the competency of the doctors and hospital staff and bravery of
the wounded soldiers/Marines.
Goodman could come off very badly by comparison.

Stay tuned. This could be interesting.
