CNN State of the Union with John King

Thanks John... Looking forward to it ..

I look forward to hearing how Mr. Gorbachev feels about the Afghanistan War. Also, what his thoughts are, on the similarities and/or differences that are now in play. Is the situation Russia WAS confronted with in Afghanistan, any different today, than when they were immersed in conflict with them?

Great interview John! There will be some very compelling discussion coming forth and I am looking forward to hearing & learning more about what the Military is going to do. The U of PA program will be good start in the right direction for preparing our troops and their families with coping with the stress of deployment. Here in NC our military ... Read Morebases has experienced violence committed by military men on the wives/girlfriends <domestic violence> and that concerns me. Civilian behavioral health specialist should be able to support the government's/military's initiative as well. Again, great discussion John!

Somehow my comment earlier got lost on this subject.The issue of not enough mental health professionals could be solved. The military has many registered nurses, all with Bachelor degrees or higher. They should offer to send a number of these nurses or in fact offer full scholarships to civilian nurses, for Mansters prepared and Doctorally prepared... Read More Advanced Nurse Practitioners. These nurses are highly trained and educated. They do a wonderful and comprehensive job at assessment and treatment in this field. I am sure they would quickly fill this lack of mental health availability of personnel. Nursing has historically stepped up to the plate to meet the health care needs of many communities. This is an area where they would do wonders!!.

Just finished watching the interview you had with Gov-elect Bob McDonnell. The more I watch and listen to the guy speaking, I am even more convinced that he is the right guy for Virginia. But of course, he has to back his words up with his actions, so lets see what he will do. But my first few impressions of him is that he will do great for Virginia.

The Republicans are already calling Representative Cao a viet cong commie. I am proud of Anh Joseph Cao and I am a Democrat. This is a decent, intelligent man. The Republicans attacking him are hateful puppets of greedy corporate moguls who are destroying this country whether through wall street or health insurance companies rip offs.

Jeri, here's a clip of John having a cup of coffee there, with a few pics of the diner spliced in: http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/politics/2009/06/05/sotu.behind.the.scenes.cnn

Oh, cool! Thank you!

Congratulations to Jessica and Ted!!!

Scot you obviously can't read and comprehend. I WORK!!! Obviously the Government has given me some opportunities. Would you precious private sector have given me the right to vote? NO, cause they didn't care!!! God has blessed me and I EARNED everything I have. So please keep your quotes. The only scary ones are you Conservatives and Republicans. All you Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, etc. supporters are the scary ones!!!

Dennis and David you got it right.

the problmen with these idiots is they use words they dont understand, Like center, which is another word meaning BALANCE, they think that central somehow means free market??? they are morons, they dont understand that center is a balance between public and private that exists to facilitate self actualization for the people.

chad says on one hand that we need to stop the communism, hes an idiot! there is NO communism here, we have a MARKET GENIUS. he doesnt know the difference between socialism and communism, which means he is thinki9ng in terms of cold war moronic logic that no longer exists, he thinks red dawn, rather than the US Military social program, medicare which is a social program, all programs that take money that belongs to the whole nation and uses it to provide for the whole nation is socialism, not communism....

dont sweat the morons, send them back to work in their mindless jobs, they are slaves and they need to stay slaves as they dont have the brains to do anything else like contribute to society in an Intelligent way.

they contribute by doing the mindless moron work that allows other people to innovate, they naturally think they are important and as they are self centered and think they are successful they want to protect that moron lifestyle.

you know the song Driving, when Brandon Boyd says would you choose water over wine?? well they choose wine always and they are drunk on ignorance, so dont sweat them, YOU obviously are capable of hearing and understanding and they are not.

as their church says they hear but dont understand, they pay lip service but their hearts are far from him.
they dont care about what the government COULD do, they only care what it can do for them, and that it might give someone else something they didnt get.

they arent americans and they arent christians they are idiots, serving the wrong master, let them serve, its what they are here for.

and I respectfully decline, they arent NAMES, they are apt descriptions of idiotic statements made by the person I am aiming them at.

I respectfully ask you to stop censoring ME.

it isnt the names your called genius its what you answer too, and since you are obviously incapable of understanding zero sum, I dont repect your unintelligent statement as it is absent of logic.

You are a sweetheart Dawn. Your language clearly shows what kind of person you are. I hope it takes you far in life.

Conservatives are tired of spending money on wars too. We need to end this and work on the economy. We need smarter people in the Republican party instead of saying the same old thing. Boehner is a Boob. There has got to be a better choice for Republican leaders or the party will be a lost cause in 2010 and 2012

@Peter Refreshing POV. I agree. Who in the party would take the lead?

go sit in a psychologist an analyze this why are you hammering on this president like he is like the last one an idiot

P.S John Boehner could probably get a dandy job(though not as lucrative) on Fox News if he ever gives up his day job.

Americans be carefull please do not go the same way as south africa ! What a mess ! ! !

U shuld have one in St. louis park,Minnesota

Go here to sign a petition to request that CNN remove Lou Dobbs from their network. Lou Dobbs has continually campaigned for hatred against latinos even while CNN is trying to court more latino viewers.

He has done no such thing. Illegals are breaking the law and they need to be expelled from the country.
