Phil Donahue and Tomas Young, Body of War

The 1970s and 1980s talk show host profiles two "bodies" in Body of War, his award-winning anti-Iraq War documentary. There is the body of paraplegic Iraq veteran Tomas Young from Kansas City, MO. And then there is the body of Congress that in 2002, three weeks before an election, rubberstamped the White House request for authority to declare war. Donahue and Young offer different but never conflicting perspectives on the after-shocks of the war back home.
