Prager H2: Have there been any new ideas about living a better life?.. Dennis talks to Paul Sperry, veteran financial reporter who has written for the NY Post, Wall Street Journal and many other publications. He’s also a media fellow with the Hoover Institution. His new book is The Great American Bank Robbery: The Unauthorized Report About What Really Caused the Great Recession.
Prager H3: Dennis talks to popular talk show host on WTMJ Radio, Milwaukee about the crisis in Wisconsin. Why are a million people following Charlie Sheen on Twitter?.. Dennis reviews a speech in 1985 by late Jeanne Kirkpatrick, this week’s Imprimis segment. Daniel Henninger, columnist for the Wall Street Journal, just got back from Viet Nam. He and Dennis compare notes.
Prager H1: A leading Yemeni cleric calls for the overthrow of the government and the establishment of an Islamist state. Good people may start revolutions; bad people often take them over. The only Christian minister in the Pakistani cabinet was murdered today. Two American servicemen were murdered in Germany by a Kosovo national. Since Kosovo is 90% Muslim, it is likely that this was an act of terror.
Prager H2: Should a husband call his wife everyday during the day as a sign of affection? And does it work the other way round? Would the husband welcome it or be annoyed?
Prager H3: Two Americans have been murdered, two wounded in Frankfurt, Germany. Early reports suggest that the killer shouted “Allah hu Akhbar” while he fired his gun. A teenager wins the right to wear a t-shirt critical of homosexuality. Dennis is against themed t-shirts at high schools – period. Christians are being persecuted in Muslim countries. Do Christians care?.. If you’re on the Right and you’re effective, like the Koch brothers, you will be demonized by the media.
Prager H1: Last week Chris Matthews slandered Mike Huckabee, accusing him of promoting ethnic cleansing in the West Bank. Dennis talks to the former governor about the charge. A UK court rules that a Christian couple can’t foster children because they won’t promote homosexuality in the home. You are anti-science if you don’t fully buy into Global Warming, according the NY Times.
Prager H2: Dennis continues his discussion of the court in the UK banning a Christian couple from raising foster children. Consumer Reports says that the Chevy Volt is a dud. Dennis is not optimistic about a rosy outcome for the Arab Middle East.When conservatives hold strong convictions, they win.
Prager H3: Dennis examines an important, but rarely cited verse in the Bible – do not favor the poor in judgment (Leviticus 19:15). This is the fifth in Dennis’s series explaining the relevance of the Bible.
Prager H3: DDennis is not sanguine about the chances for democracy sprouting forth any time soon in the Arab Middle East. Gaza is a good case in point. Since they were elected, Hamas has closed down bars, movie theatres, imposed speech and dress codes. And not held any new elections. Dennis talks to Michael Ledeen, senior scholar at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, about the latest from Iran and the Middle East.
Prager H1: Dennis congratulates the winner of last night’s Academy Award for Best Picture, The King’s Speech, a movie which he thoroughly enjoyed. Will Hollywood make more movies like this or more silly, special effects movies?… Why aren’t police evicting protestors from the state capital in Wisconsin?… David Letterman is the paradigm liberal. When he hears the facts, as does during an interview with Rand Paul, he’s flummoxed.
Prager H2: Dennis and Hugh Hewitt, his talk show colleague, discussed religion last night at a public event. Dennis summarizes. Arizona is considering legislation which would allow students over 21 and professors to carry concealed weapons. The professors are aghast.
Prager H1: Diane Sawyer highlights this startling fact in her prime time newscast: the US doesn’t provide paid maternity/paternity leave for all its citizens. Sweden does. But we don’t. Somehow this has become a human rights issue and the US is sadly deficient in Diane’s enlightened view. Democratic Ohio Senator, Sherrod Brown, says that the ability for public service unions to given millions of dollars to elect the officials with whom the unions negotiate their contract is a moral issue. He’s right. It’s immoral.
