CNN came calling...
What would you all do if you were in my shoes?
EXCEPT YOU LOOK FAB!
I think if you are at all uncomfortable with doing the national segment then skip it. They'll find someone else to dupe into giving their story.
I think that they proved to you they are gonna do what ever sells, and it doesnt seem that being honest and up front is part of being a reporter.
For me id be a bit cautious as you say this time its goes nationally ... I think even Frisco made comment the first time on your thread, that they do it on live shows where they have the guest speaker thinking they are there for one reason and being all nice to them, until the camera rolls..
Id hate for you to be dupped yet again..

Oppose McCain TRICARE Fee Hike
The Senate is expected to finish action on the FY2012 Defense
Authorization Act (S. 1867) this week.
One of the amendments to be considered soon is a proposal by Sen.
John McCain (R-AZ) to significantly increase TRICARE Prime
enrollment fees over time.
Previously, the full House of Representatives and the Senate
Armed Services Committee approved language to specify the
percentage increase in Prime fees can't exceed the retired pay
COLA percentage in any year.
The McCain amendment would eliminate the COLA cap and let the
Pentagon hike fees by some unspecified index of health cost
growth (estimated by DoD at 6.5% per year).
Over time, the McCain amendment would increase fees by hundreds
of dollars a year.

Time is short, and we need phone calls to fight this
inappropriate fee hike.
Please use MOAA's toll-free Capitol Hill Hotline (1-866-272-6622)
and ask the Capitol operator to put you through to your senators'
offices (to identify your senators, go to
Give this short message to the staffer who answers the phone:
"I'm a constituent, and I want my senator to OPPOSE Sen. McCain's
defense bill amendment #1230 that would impose further increases
in military TRICARE fees."

People who have never had a real problem with food have no clue that just portion control and exercise is all we have to do. They just don't understand the "head" games that we have to endure.
Idiots!
And I wouldn't talk to CNN for all the money in China. I like Anderson Cooper, but I'm afraid the slant that they are looking for isn't favorable to those of us who have had WLS.
