Today you'll hear three segments, touching on:
--Haitian women and children so hungry and desperate they eat cookies made of dirt. What's that got to do with you and me? If we're largely to blame, what can we do to remedy the situation? (Here are the two links promised in the podcast:
Bipartisan Letter on Haiti House/Senate Jubilee Act)
--Right-wingers so callous and vicious they blame victims of natural disasters for their own fate. Listen to Neil Boortz make Bill O'Reilly seem statesmanlike by comparison!
--And, in a change of pace, some campaign '08 strategy suggestions from yours truly, including the necessity to re-define John McCain. You'll also hear how George Bush has been like a man throwing a lit cigarette into a tinder dry woods, and how that analogy can help defeat Republicans in November.
(PS: Right-wingers, if you want to write in to me, fine, but at least do me the courtesy of listening to the podcast first. Please don't respond just on the basis of the brief preview above. Thanks!!)
Programming note: Until March, there will most likely not be live shows on alternate weeks.
I really like your show!
ReplyDeleteYour description of "Social Darwinism" was good. It's a really twisted ideology, but I suspect you should be able to trace at least part of its roots to Calvinism. I don't believe it is a coincidence that the Right-wing Christian dominionists get along so well with the Right-wing Ayn Rand Libertarian types.
