Prager H3: Last week Dennis focused on the parents point of view – what a parent most wants from a child can shape the way that parent raises that child. This week, he focuses on some practical lessons. One example: love is not enough to raise a good kid.
Prager H1: President Obama gave a fine speech last night to justify our intervention in Libya. Ironically, it could have been given by GW. Dennis talks to Les Standiford and Joe Matthews.

Prager H1: There were protests, complete with riots, in London. What were they protesting so passionately? Budget cuts. When you give people things, it’s very tough to take them away.

Prager H1: In Wisconsin, the public service unions, having lost the electoral and legislative battles, have turned to the courts. They are working to unseat a conservative Wisconsin judge. If they succeed, they may still win. The Left never stops. We can’t. Protests are raging in a very unlikely place – Syria. Could Assad, a thug who is the son of a thug, really be in trouble? One can hope. In Egypt, freedom-loving, Facebook/Twitter revolutionaries have been muscled out of by the Muslim Brotherhood. That didn’t take long. What do you say now, Mr. Friedman?

Prager H1: We’re not waging war against Colonel Kaddaffi; we’re engaged in a “kinetic military action.”. Dennis talks to London-based columnist, Melanie Phillips.

Prager H2: The price of corn has skyrocketed because so much of the harvest goes to making biofuel. People in the Third World are going hungry so liberals can feel good about themselves. The Chevy Volt may be going the way of the Edsel. Dennis talks to Robert Royal, president of the Faith & Reason Institute in Washington, D.C.

Prager H3: As the West keeps it up attack on Libya, there are disturbing questions about who we are fighting for. Today is the first anniversary of one of the worst, if not the worst single piece of legislation ever written – ObamaCare. Even a good liberal like Starbucks CEO, Howard Schultz, has his doubts.
