Howard Zinn on the "Good War

Kudos to whoever at the Smithsonian invited Howard Zinn to speak on the occasion of the opening of the WWII memorial. And kudos to the vet who stood up during the Q&A:Dissent at the War Memorial | Howard Zinn | August 2004 Issue "The first person to walk up front was a veteran of World War II, wearing parts of his old uniform. He spoke into the microphone: 'I was wounded in World War II and have a Purple Heart to show for it. If President Bush were here right now I would throw that medal in his face.'"
