Prager H2: Dennis sees a picture of Martha Stewart and comments that at 70 she really looks terrific. It’s a blessing of modern life that women are looking good longer… Cars are now getting greenhouse gas ratings. Is it silly? Yeah. Is it stupid? Yeah… Dennis talks to Richard Miniter, award-winning investigative journalist and author New York Times bestsellers: Losing Bin Laden. His new book is Mastermind: The Many Faces of the 9/11 Architect, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed.

Prager H1: erals like Neal Gabler accuse conservatives of being “stony hearted.” Do conservatives love their mothers less than liberals? Like clean air less than liberals? Is their any limits to the government’s compassion?.. Marriage rates are down. USAToday, of course, attributes this to economics. But what about religious couples? Are they marrying less? Doesn’t seem like it. So, maybe the issue isn’t economics, maybe it’s values.

Prager H3: Al Gore tells graduating students that Global Warming is the big one. Islamic terror? Small potatoes. How about human evil? Second place. A school in Oakland is now teaching gender diversity to its fourth graders. What does “gender diversity” even mean? Do they still teach reading and math? When do they have time? This makes a nice companion to the story about two Canadians parents who are raising their child without a gender. Lucky kid.

Prager H2: Two sex scandals have dominated the news over the last few weeks: Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the French head of the IMF forcing himself on a hotel maid and Arnold Schwarzenegger extra-marital affair and subsequent love child. Dennis looks for lessons.

Prager H1: The Democrats won a congressional seat in NY yesterday. This has been taken as a repudiation of the Republicans Medicare reform plans. If it is, the country is in big trouble… Tim Pawlenty has said, in Iowa, that he’s willing to take on ethanol subsidies. That’s gutsy… Dennis talks to Bryan Caplan, Professor of Economics at George Mason University. His new book is Selfish Reasons to Have More Kids: Why Being a Great Parent is Less Work and More Fun Than You Think.

Prager H3: Calling on his own recent surgery experience Dennis poses the question, does suffering and pain make you bitter or better?

Prager H2: The freest Arabs in the Middle East live in Israel… Dennis returns to the Netanyahu speech… The Supreme Court has told California to release forty thousand prisoners. Who will pay the price for this awful decision? The liberals on the Supreme Court who voted for this? Or Californians who actually live in the state?.. A couple has decided to raise their child without identifying its gender.

Prager H1: The PM of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, gave a stirring and well reasoned speech before Congress this morning. Dennis plays clips, comments and takes calls.

Prager H3: Sex scandals were big news items while Dennis was recuperating – the maid chasing French banker-socialist and the love child-making, former governor of California. Dennis comments… Ninety people have died from a terrible tornado yesterday in Joplin, MO… Was Israeli PM Bibi Netanyahu disrespectful to the President Obama?.. Palestinians have been jarred by the President’s reference to Israel as “the Jewish state.” This is a tip off that the Palestinians are not serious about peace.

Prager H2: Dennis continues to discuss the President’s “Moment of Opportunity” speech late last week…

Prager H1: Dennis relates his medical adventure of the last few weeks… Then, dives into the Obama “’67 borders” controversy.

Prager H3: We need to monitor ourselves. Dennis proposes a four sentence rule – speak four sentences and see what kind of reaction you are getting. A Best of Prager Hour. Originally broadcast on April 26, 2005.
