With Laura Flanders of Air America, Steve Cobble of AfterDowningStreet.org, Tim Carpenter of Progressive Democrats of America or David Swanson of AfterDowningStreet.org, and Matthew Rothschild of the Progressive magazine.

TAKE BACK the right not to be sent into an aggressive war for greed and power, killing and displacing millions, putting us all in danger.
