Republicans want you to believe that millions of Americans are losing their health insurance due to Obamacare, and that President Obama lied when he said, “If you liked your plan you could keep it.”

George Zornick writes for The Nation Magazine, he’s been looking into this for the Washington Post and writes that when all is said and done only ten thousand Americans will lose their coverage, not the five million conservative pundits would want us to believe. He joins us from Washington DC. Then California’s State Supreme Court last Thursday ruled unanimously that undocumented workers could now practice law in the state of California. Rachel Swan writes for SF weekly and she has been following this case, she joins us from San Francisco. Michael Snyder is our resident film critic and he has two documentaries we all have to see. And Jeremy S. Kramer spills the beans on The Annenberg Foundation. Plus Gary Shapiro sits in with Will Ryan And The Cactus County Cowboys.
