It’s not perfect, but it is the best available option… Dennis talks to Frank Luntz, renowned pollster and Fox News analyst, about who’s winning Debt Crisis PR war… Dennis also talks to Adam Lerrick, Professor of Economics at Carnegie-Mellon University, about the economic consequences of the debt crisis.
Prager H3: Dennis talks to Robert Spencer, Director of Jihad Watch. Spencer, who writes on Radical Islam, has been blamed by the LA Times and NBC for the mass murder in Norway. It’s the Left blaming Sarah Palin for the Giffords shooting all over again… Dennis returns to the debt issue… George Soros has been a champion of regulating Wall Street, but now that he has to live under the new regulations, he’s getting out of the hedge fund business.
Prager H2: Dennis asks those who have been married 10 years or longer to give advice to those who are single and want to get married. Dennis has his own list. Callers weigh in.

Prager H2: The President went on a massive spending binge and now wants “the rich,” those earning more than $200K to pay for it. This is his “balanced” approach… Did you notice than John Boehner in his excellent rebuttal used a phrase Prager listeners are very familiar with: “the bigger the government, the smaller the people.”… When is the President going to stop blaming GW for all his problems?
Prager H1: Mark observes that it’s tough to listen to President Obama set up “straw men” – positions that he claims Republicans hold (but they don’t) — and then knock them down. He has done this over and over again in the Debt Debate.

Prager H2: Who is responsible for our massive debt? Our former President or our current one?
Prager H1: Mark Taylor fills in for Dennis. Mark analyzes the debt crisis… He wonders why anyone would call the mass murderer in Norway a Christian?

Prager H2: Dennis opens up the lines. Issues raised include: how do you stay happy in such a bad economy; does exercise make you happy; do you need to reassess your life periodically; is there a difference between public and private happiness.
