TS55: Rocky Mountain High

The next two episodes are going to be Convention-focused. This week the Dems were up, next week the Reps. There are several clips from Demoracy Now that I am playing on the show, as they seemed to give the best coverage, as well as a different perspective that isn't clouded over with the same talking points.

*Opening: Tavis Smiley on Expectations
*The plan for the next two shows
*DN Clip #1- general overview of convention center
  - What's happening outside the convention center
  - "Free Speech Cage" Really?
*DN Clip #2- the AT&T Party
  - No one wants anyone to know who they are!
  - Well, the Republicans don't care really
  - Glenn Greenwald talks about telecom immunity
*Homework Assignment: Get all parties included in Presidential Debates!
  - Click HERE for all the details, all the work is done. Just copy, paste, repeat.
*DN Clip #3- Talking to delegates in the Convention Center. They are very well trained!
  - I do heart Kucinich, but I think his efforts are futile. He's too independent to be a Democrat!
  - Here's a thought: No Labels!
*DN Clip #4- More protests. Also a good game of "Who's the Cop?"
*Feedback!
 - email from a new listener in the DC area
 - Girl Scout Wiki Page
 - Black Agenda Report
 - Oh sure, agree with Nobilis! ;-)
 - Some answers to the question "Would we have gone to Iraq under a Gore Presidency?"
 - Forum thread with some thoughts
 - Comment from Nobilis
 *Let me know if you hated the coverage!
