Bush by Numbers: A Radio Clamor Election Special
It’s been a long four years. The ever-growing list of lies, abuses, death, and destruction caused by the Bush Administration is difficult to keep up with, much less comprehend. When Clamor editors read an excerpt of Graydon Carter’s recently published book, What We’ve Lost, printed in the British newspaper The Independent, we knew this was something that needed to reach as many people as possible before Election Day. So we adapted the article for radio, in three parts, covering how the Bush Administration has adversely affected the nation and the world. We’ll let the audio speak for itself. All run about five minutes and are about 2.5 MB.
Part 1: Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Cost of the War
Part 2: The Military, Bush’s Friends, Homeland Security
Part 3: The Environment, the Other Americans, Mission Accomplished
Please download, file share, burn CDs, give copies to your local college or community stations, etc. All we ask is that radio broadcasters credit Clamor magazine and Radio Clamor. Bush by Numbers was produced by Catherine Komp. Thanks to Eric Wellman for co-anchoring the script, and Alan Weatherhead, who composed and produced the music.

Graydon Carter is the editor for Vanity Fair. The full title of his new book is What We’ve Lost: How the Bush Administration Has Curtailed Our Freedoms, Mortgaged Our Economy, Ravaged Our Environment, and Damaged Our Standing in the World, published in September, 2004 by Farrar, Straus & Giroux.
Thanks for listening!
