I heard this author on several shows talking about how the media ahow a much different picture of the war in Iraq and what was actually accomplished there, and how he wrote this book to refute the gloomy picture being painted by the media.

Imagine my shock when I saw this gentleman on "Scarborough Country" backing LURCH for president!!! ????

I'm assuming you mean Jacque Kerrey.
I'm gonna need a link on that I find it hard to believe Karl Zinsmeister supporting Kerrey.
