Prager H3: It’s 8 degrees Fahrenheit in Minneapolis, dropping to -16 tonight, where Dennis is broadcasting from today; quite a change from Los Angeles… Has the Leftwing brainwash worked on you? How did you overcome it?… New studies reveal that the hysteria and near-hysteria about childhood allergie, especially to peanuts, has been wildly overdone.
Prager H1: Congressman Steven Cohen, a Democrat from Tennessee, compares Republicans opposition to ObamaCare to the Nazis death campaign against the Jews. Sounds a little more incendiary than targets on a map, but let’s see how the media responds to Cohen’s tirade… The demonization of the Right has been the great weapon of the Left…
Prager H1: The Obama Administration has treated thugs like Syria with kid gloves. The neighborhood of the Middle East has only gotten the worse as a result… George Will catalogs the list of liberal plans that have failed over the last two years. The reason: the American people distrust big government.
Prager H2: Women are taught from grammar school on up that personal fulfillment is found in career, not in family. Steep prices have been paid.
Prager H3: CNN host, John King, apologizes for a guest who used the phrase “in the crosshairs” in a political discussion. This is typical of how the Left throws common sense out the window in pursuit of their utopian visions… A large majority of doctors think that ObamaCare will make healthcare worse.
Prager H1: How important is blood? Not very. Here’s a good example. Michael Reagan, the adopted child of Ronald Reagan, honors and promotes his father’s values and memory; Ron Reagan, the biological son, dishonors his father’s values and memory. European Union Student Calendar (whatever that is) listed many religious holidays, but forgot one – Christian holidays. New research suggests that during first two years of college students spend more time partying and sleeping than studying.
Prager H2: In Egypt a fatwa was issued and approved by a major Islamic theologian endorsing the idea that Muslims can attack anyone anywhere who opposes Islam. Dennis talks to Roy Baumeister, Professor of Psychology and head of the social psychology graduate program at Florida State University. His new book is Is There Anything Good About Men?: How Cultures Flourish by Exploiting Men. Chris Matthews makes some very foolish comments about blacks and Conservatives to former RNC Chairman, Michael Steele. They say a lot about how liberals, even bright liberals like Matthews, think.
Prager H3: The fifth of the Ten Commandments states that you have to honor your father and mother. Why does it say “honor” not “love”? And what does it mean to honor your parents.
Prager H1: Dennis honors Reverend Martin Luther King by reading excerpts from his famous “Letter from a Birmingham Jail, one the most profound documents of American history.
Prager H2: Reverend Martin Luther King is now universally referred to as Dr. Martin Luther King. This is part of the Left’s desire to remove the importance of religion from the civil rights struggle. The Administration has released a report endorsing women in combat. This is foolishness in the extreme. Does anybody really believe a combat unit would be enhanced by the presence of women?
Prager H3: Yes, Martin Luther King Jr. had his personal flaws. Yes, he had ideas that conservatives strongly disagree with. But on balance there can be no question that he made a major, vital contribution to this country. His “moral” bank account was very full. Dennis talks Rabbi Shmuley Boteach about his new book Honoring the Child Spirit: Inspiration and Learning from Our Children. They also talk about Shmuley’s defense of Sarah Palin’s use of the term “blood libel” in the Wall Street Journal.
Dennis opens the hour with Robert Davi. The singer/actor has become known for his work with the Frank Sinatra songbook. Then, callers take over. Issues raised include: does Dennis still consider himself a passionate centrist; what is the real definition of a parent; who has killed more — religions or governments?
