TODAY'S SHOW: THURSDAY, MAY 22ND 2008

By Vanessa Silverton-Peel

On today's show Rachel will be talking to Paul Rieckhoff about the VERY exciting development on the new GI Bill-- it passed the Senate today! John McCain didn't bother to show up and Bush is already threatening a veto it but it passed nonetheless. And that is the best news we've heard all week. If you want to know if your Senator voted for it, go HERE.

And then Rachel will be joined by Matt Snyders, a staff writer at the Minneapolis/St. Paul City Pages, about the FBI trying to infiltrate vegan potlucks in Minneapolis before the Republican convention. Is bean curd considered a weapon of mass destruction?

 

Exactly

AAR mystifies me sometimes. It's appeal is as an alternative and useful source of information. But now I have to skip through the first hour of $$$mooneymedia$$$ drivel and that annoying drumming intro to get to what I paid for. Is there a way to separate the shows so I don't end up downloading the podcast of breathless gossip? And who writes Rachel's scrip for "race", don't they know what she says on the rest of the show? A real problem is that Rachel comes away with these notions of "conventional wisdom" which she feels the need to refute. Hey Mark Green, there is a reason people are paying to listen to AAR and it isn't MSNBCFOXCNN.
