Children Left Behind, Ineffective Tax Cuts, Hamas Strikes Again, and Clemens the Liar

nobody@vox.com(Josh Gellers) — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 10:23:03 -0800

This week's show featured highly contentious articles about how teenagers are ignorant of history and literature and the failure of No Child Left Behind/standardized testing, a new poll showing that people will likely spend their tax rebates on paying down their debt or put the money into savings, not on stimulating the economy through the purchasing of American goods, the latest exchange between Israelis and Palestinians and how peace cannot be achieved without a fundamental change in mindset of the Palestinian people, and finally, the developing saga involving Roger Clemens' steroid use and his inability to tell the truth.

This week's podcast!

Enjoy the leap year day and have an honest weekend!

Romney's Ramblings, Stimulus Package Idiocy, and Racist Superbowl Ads

nobody@vox.com(Josh Gellers) — Fri, 08 Feb 2008 10:18:45 -0800

If you don't like human equality, then I'd advise you not to listen to this program! This week I ripped into Mitt Romney's less-than-graceful exit from the presidential race, examined how the stimulus package does nothing to help the poor but pay off some monthly bills, and how this Superbowl's worst ads were racist cartoons launched by Salesgenie.com, approved by parent company InfoUSA's CEO Vinod Gupta.

You can check out the podcast here.

Stay informed. Put up a fight.

Have an enlightened weekend!
