Prager H1: Mark Isler guest hosts for Dennis… President Obama announced this weekend that we are completely withdrawing from Iraq by the end of the year, leaving only 150 soldiers behind to protect the embassy… Mark talks to Michael Ledeen, senior fellow for the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies about the Iraq, Iran, Libya and the Arab Spring…

Prager H3: Per usual, callers set the agenda. Today’s line up is a collection of the best questions from this hour earlier this year.

Prager H2: Dennis returns to an issue he dealt with almost exactly one year ago. The conventional wisdom is that a parent is only as happy as his or her unhappiest child. Is this true? If it is, how should a parent deal with it? Originally broadcast on July 10, 2010.

Prager H1: Murderous thug Mohammar Kaddafi has been shot dead in a sewer in his home town. Sometimes there is poetic justice… Barbie is now covered in tattoos. Mattel execs and board should be ashamed of themselves… The vile attacks against Herman Cain for having black skin and conservative views (how dare he!) have begun. Now it’s a trickle; if he continues to do well, it will soon be a flood. The Left is terrified of this man. Like Clarence Thomas, he stands against everything they hold sacred, mostly that America is a racist… Is Mitt Romney really a conservative? This question haunts Republicans – for good reason.

Prager H3: Mark talks with James Taranto, touches on the President’s Rose Garden remarks regarding Qaddafi’s death, and takes caller’s GOP Presidential candidate picks.

Prager H2: Mark continues discussing Occupy Wall Street and the economy with Amity Schlaes. California is continues sliding further left into the Pacific both economically and politically, Tom McClintock discusses the future of the once golden state.

Prager H1: Mark Isler fills in for Dennis. Qaddafi is dead. Mark discusses President Obama’s tendency to set up straw man positions for the Right rather than address true conservative positions. Mark is joined by Matt Kibbe to discuss Occupy Wall Street and Cliff May to discuss foreign policy, Qaddafi, and Iran’s future.

Prager H3: Dennis elaborates on the nature of Rick Perry’s unjustified attack on Mitt Romney re: the immigration issue… Israel trades 1000 terrorists for one soldier. Did they make the right decision?… Greece’s bureaucracy is so bloated, no one really believes than it can be meaningfully cut. What is the difference in this regard between Greece and, say, California?

Prager H2: Given male nature, staying faithful is a challenge. But it’s a challenge that can be met. How does a good man do it?

Prager H1: Dennis analyzes last night’s debate. Rick Perry’s cheap shot at Mitt Romney for “hiring” an illegal immigrant gardener was the low point… Herman Cain has staked too much of his candidacy on 9-9-9… These debates are obsessed with policy and ignore vision. The country is more interested in the latter than the former.
