This sounds like a series that many will find extremely interesting.
It will be on PBS and called, what I titled with, America At A Crossroads. It will cover several nights with Two Hour Documentaries each night.
You can listen to McNeil and Rehm discuss this upcoming PBS series:
Robert MacNeil on the "America at a Crossroads" Documentary Series
Journalist Robert MacNeil talks about the series of documentaries developed by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to explore the challenges confronting the post- 9/11 world, including the war on terrorism, the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, the experience of American troops, the struggle for balance within the Islamic world, Muslim life in America, and perspectives on American's role globally.Guests

Thinking somehow one can totally Destroy, Kill and Maim others to your idea's of some type of Ideology, in this case Democracy, the Total Opposite of 'Destruction', 'Blowing Others to Pieces', and 'Dictoral Rule By Surogates Pretending to be Leaders', through 'Bombs', Bullets' and 'Blood'! 'Democracy' I think not!

Let us be lovers well marry our fortunes together
I've got some real estate here in my bag
So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner pies
And we walked off to look for america
Kathy, I said as we boarded a greyhound in pittsburgh
Michigan seems like a dream to me now
It took me four days to hitchhike from saginaw
I've gone to look for america
Laughing on the bus
Playing games with the faces
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
I said be careful his bowtie is really a camera
Toss me a cigarette, I think theres one in my raincoat
We smoked the last one an hour ago
So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine
And the moon rose over an open field
Kathy, Im lost, I said, though I knew she was sleeping
I'm empty and aching and I don't know why
Counting the cars on the New Jersey turnpike
They've all gone to look for america
All gone to look for america
All gone to look for america
If the President vetoes this bill he will have delayed funding for troops and kept in place his strategy for failure. - Sen. Harry Reid
A great song from a truly great album. Got to see S&G live in about 1967 or '68 at the U. of Oklahoma. I was totally enchanted the whole time with just two guys and a guitar.
