Ignorance Is Bliss
If we ignore what’s happening in the world can we be happy? Can a human being live a full life immune to the suffering of others? Is there more to life than paying attention? David talks with Howie Klein who writes the Down With Tyranny blog about Howie’s six weeks in Tuscany this summer and how it’s impossible to escape the effects of government and politics. Then our resident film critic Michael Snyder talks about what movies to see this week and which ones to avoid. Are movies that come to us from The People’s Republic Of China art? And is the NSA really listening in on Howie Klein’s phone?

10 Best and 10 Worst Democratic Freshmen
Howie Klein has a great post today on his Down With Tyranny blog which is a must read for everybody.
The best freshman and the worst freshman each comes from Florida. Overall best is Alan Grayson, more than just a good voter– a real leader and organizer. And please do watch that video up top. Ironically, the worst freshman, Patrick Murphy, is also a leader and an organizer– he’s leading other freshmen, really dumb ones, astray and organizing to help push through Boehner’s toxic agenda. But let’s get to the roll calls that we counted in assessing each freshman.

Howie’s on our show all the time, I’m proud to say. Check out our most recent conversation
The GOP Senator Who Refuses To Come Out
Republican Senator Lindsay Graham repeatedly denies he’s gay. In that case he should tell his penis, and the guy he lives with. Two years ago the New York Times reported…
During a South Carolina Tea Party rally this spring, one speaker created an uproar by postulating that Graham supported a guest-worker program out of fear that the Democrats might otherwise expose his homosexuality. (Graham smirked when I brought this up. “Like maybe I’m having a clandestine affair with Ricky Martin,” he said. “I know it’s really gonna upset a lot of gay men — I’m sure hundreds of ’em are gonna be jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge — but I ain’t available. I ain’t gay. Sorry.”)
On today’s show with Howie Klein we talk about why Senator Graham’s sexuality is germane to the immigration debate.
Gay GOP Hypocrites
Has Senator Lindsay Graham gone crackers from all the pressure of staying in the closet? Can Oklahoma senators who opposed Hurricane Sandy relief actually ask for tornado relief? That and so much more from Down With Tyranny’s Howie Klein. New music from Will Ryan And The Cactus County Cowboys. Along with Paul Dooley, Rick Overton and Hal Lublin. Portions of today’s program were written by Guy Nicolucci and David Feldman.
