NRA call for Holder to be fired a waste of political capital
In fairness, you should read the case LaPierre makes. I did, and frankly, it does not bring me any closer to his position. In fact, reading skillfully crafted marketing claims like “When NRA first began our campaign to fire Eric Holder we were one of just a few voices in the wilderness” makes my jaw drop at the sheer, amazing chutzpah of it.

Archives are here. They're posting by the week and replacing the show at each day's link the evening of the broadcast date. Also note encores are being rebroadcast on Saturday.

Just a few short months ago I certainly would never have predicted I'd see that happen--or that I'd be a part of it.
Lineup subject to change without notice.
