Prager H1: Culture of Exposure

Prager H1: David Brooks writes in the NY Times that we are now living in a “culture of exposure.” Ironically, this “tell everything” style of reporting will lead to less good information, not more. “Protesters” rioted at the G20, smashing store front windows and burning cars. This is de rigeur at economic summits and following NBA championships. The Frank/Dodd reform is a 2000 page muddle. The only guaranteed result is full employment for lawyers.

Prager H2: Transformational

Prager H2: At a G20 press conference, President Obama wonders why anyone would doubt that he would be a transformational leader. He promised he would fundamentally change America, didn’t he?… Dennis talks to Gabriel Schoenfeld, senior fellow at the Hudson Institute in Washington, D.C. His new book is Necessary Secrets: National Security, the Media, and the Rule of Law. High schools now routinely have multiple valedictorians.

Prager H3: Gitmo No Mo

Prager H3: Remember what a big issue Gitmo was to the Democrats? Now it’s a non-issue ? Why?… Dennis returns to the multiple valedictorian issue. Some schools have as many of as a hundred of them. To the liberal mind, equality is the most important value. Dennis talks to Ziad Abdelnour, President & CEO Blackhawk Partners, Inc on why the rich are vilified and why that’s bad.

Prager H1: You Stabbed Us in the Back

Prager H1: The Business Roundtable, a group of Big Business companies, are shocked that the Obama Administration and the Democrats have stabbed them in the back. They thought if they played along with ObamaCare and Cap and Trade that the Administration would protect them confiscatory taxes and overregulation. Now they know they were wrong. CEO’s may know how to run international companies, but they don’t know the Left. How can any military strategy work in Afghanistan if our enemies and our friends know we’re leaving in a year?… Congress is ready to pass another “two thousander,” another two thousand page bill – this time financial regulations. Senator Dodd, the chief sponsor of the bill, admits he doesn’t know what’s in it. European countries are cutting their already puny defense budgets.

Prager H2: Happiness Hour: Life is Relentless

Prager H2: This is one of Dennis’s great lines – life is relentless. There are no time outs. Every day we battle something in our effort to stay happy. Different people have different battles. But everybody has something. Simply recognizing this fact makes the struggle a little easier.

Prager H3: Open Lines

Prager H3: Per usual, callers set the agenda. Issues raised include: what is the best strategy in an argument with your wife; what is the conflict between the brain and the mind; how does a person of faith deal with anger at God; does Dennis unfairly generalize about liberals.

Prager H1: Talking to Kids

Prager H1: Dennis spoke to high school students yesterday. He was very impressed with the group and they were impressed by his directness and honesty. Michael Young, opinion page editor of the Daily Star, English language paper in Beirut, Lebanon, and contributing editor to Reason Magazine. His new book is The Ghosts of Martyrs Square: An Eyewitness Account of Lebanon’s Life Struggle.

Prager H2: Grand Jihad

Prager H2: Dennis talks to Andrew McCarthy, former federal prosecutor and a contributing editor at National Review. His new book is The Grand Jihad: How Islam and the Left Sabotage America. Dennis elaborates on connection between Islam Sharia and Leftist Sharia. No more candy cigarettes. You know how dangerous they are. “Smoke” a candy cigarette and before you know it, you’re a real smoker.

Prager H3: Sacre Bleu!

Prager H3: Raise the retirement age in France to 62 and you’ve got a major strike on your hands. In the meantime, it’s a revolutionary act to steal rides on the Paris metro. Once again we’re dead last in health care. And we spend so much money on it! That’s the standard media line and here it is once again. But where are the “studies” coming from. And could they possibly have an agenda. Huh, yeah…
