Today on Doing Time, Monday, November 17, 2008
Welcome to the Broken Phones edition of Doing Time with Ron Kuby! Today on the show, professor Juan Cole will be on with us to explain the Iraq withdrawal agreement just announced today.
We'll be talking today a little more about the pros and cons of an auto industry bailout, Barack Obama's half-great/half-fluff appearance last night on "60 Minutes," pirates in Somalia hitting up a Saudi oil tanker, and the unfortunate recurrence of hate crimes against immigrants in a Long Island community.
Also today, Senator Kennedy returns to the Hill! He says he's looking forward to working with Barack Obama on some new healthcare legislation.
Want to see an awkward photo opp? Obama and McCain met today in Chicago.

Now that's a switch. Play g0p rhetoric & applaud. BRILLIANT!!!
I must have been on another planet for the past 8 years since I though that political talk from the left was supposed to advocate for issues that LIBERAL candidates and govt officials have the opportunity to implement via legislation.
Not gratuitously play bonehead's proto-fascist propaganda and republicrats attack ads simply to bitch and moan about how petty and hypocritical they are.
I appreciate tearing down hatemongering chickenhawks that target progressives with venomous hyperbole or libelous slander, but I don't see the upside in aiding the party that without hesitation would privatize social security to loot it the way they have done the banks via their TRICKLE DOWN economic paradigm that has transferred the wealth of the nation up to the richest 4% on the planet since the ROBBER BARRON era, by playing the GOVERNATOR'S two faced bullshit about "REPUBLICANS" being the national infrastructure investment environmental protection party. That is unless you are going to run down the names of those who voted for FISA IMMUNITY & OFF SHORE DRILLING and against CAFE including the BlueDogs and their spineless brethren lead by Pelosi-Reid-Hoyer-Emanuel-Clyburn-Schumer-Feinstein who spit in the face of Kucinich-Feingold-Wexler-Hinchey-Waters etc.
Perhaps I'm alone, but the more you play Morning Joe Scumboro material without disemboweling the source BREAVEHEART style point by point, the more I relish the thought of having my skull impaled on a pike by Vlad Ţepe's heirs on the outskirts of Wallachia in southern Romania.
