A new resource for IVAW watchers

| August 12, 2008

I know most of you readers discovered this blog during the IVAW’s Winter Soldier theater and one of the reasons that you continue to come back here is because of our IVAW coverage. Well, until recently we used a NetVibes page that the IVAW members themselves built to keep track of what was being said about them around the internet (which is how most of them found their way here). They shut it down or moved it recently because most of the blog listings were coming from this blog and The Sniper.

Last night, TSO asked me if I could come with something similar and I fiddled with the NetVibes widgets for a few hours last night and finally came up with a fairly complete page of links to all things IVAW and VFP. I named it IVAW Watch and put it in our blogroll under Special Attention so it’s always there for those interested in what’s being said about the IVAW. I might add Code Pink to it next month or so.

You’re all welcome to use it and if you see something interesting that one of us didn’t catch, please bring it to our attention. We depend on your participation…otherwise we’d just be emailing each other. Thanks for your continued interest and I hope this helps.

Excellent work again,Jonn! Thank you!

TSO

Hey, where’s my praise, I went through all the trouble of emailing Jonn asking him to do it. I think obviously I AM THE TRUE HERO HERE.

Eat snaky s’mores.

The Sniper

I have to agree, John. Without TSO your widgets wouldn’t exist, The Sniper wouldn’t exist, nor would NATO, oxygen, or nocturnal emmissions from South American tree frogs. I think we all have a lot for which to thank him.

On behalf of myself, aroused yet lonely South American tree frogs, and oxygen consumers everywhere I would like to thank TSO.

(P.S. Don’t let TSO know but good job to you too!)

Speaking of IVAW, did anyone here Mortillo on FoxNews griping about the Virtual Reality Simulation game the Army is using and how it makes a mockery of war… Like their little “street theater” was a true depiction of life in a war zone.

I don’t know why I’m posting this comment since I am really Jonn therefore I’m posting this to myself. Hey – I’m a sock puppet…

The Sniper

If you’re a sock puppet, where the hell is John’s hand? Never mind. Don’t you know that IVAW is all about “do as I say, not as I do”? If they actually led by example, they might still be in the military.
