Bio
Amy Goodman is the host and executive producer of Democracy Now!. She is co-author, with her brother David Goodman, of the book Static: Government Liars, Media Cheerleaders and the People Who Fight Back.

That would -- as they famously said, Cheney and Rumsfeld -- greet U.S. soldiers with flowers and sweets. As Vice President Cheney said, we are going to liberate the people of Iraq.
