Subject: BS: Larry King Live
One thing that can now be said, if it couldn't before, about the Larry King interviews is that the programme can throw up some markedly different people, with points of view which are at extreme variance. I watched the interview with Lady Heather Mills McCartney on Saturday evening. To me, and to many others, I'd suspect, a heart-warming discourse on the ongoing work by this courageous young woman on behalf of all those killed and maimed by anti-personnel mines all over the world. Particular mention was made of Afghanistan and Iraq, and the saga of a little girl and her struggle to come to terms with the loss of a limb as a result of a fragmentation bomb [ not, we are assured a "W.m.d."], which destroyed all of her family except her Father. People like Lady McCartney and the others who appeared on the programme with her should have the backing of every decent person . They keep hope alive.
    And who is the interviewee for the next programme? None other than G.W.Bush and his first lady Laura.I will not be watching. For in order to keep hope alive, there are some who should not be heeded--unless to quote to them a certain biblical retort, "Get thee behind me,----"!
