I actually called two hours ago and the woman answering said Amy had been released...of course, she was speaking for the "man" so she could have been lying. Democracy Now's page hasn't said anything.

Sorry, should have read your piece more carefully. I will now call on behalf of the producers...

John K: Is that like the ABC reporter the liberal thugs had arrested for filming corporate money people going into receptions for Hussein Obama? Of course it is not. Here's you left wing kooks rioting while the rest of the country was focused on Gustav. Liberals will riot and destroy property just for the fun of it.

John K: I was wondering. When you left wing kooks riot, why don't you riot in your own neighborhoods? Why do you always destroy other people's property? Have you ever thought of throwing rocks through your own windows and then allowing the rioters to loot your stuff. Nah, I am talking way over your head. What about it Philip. Where do you live so the rioters can do to you what they do to other people. Surely, you won't mind.
