He says the 2008 General Election has already been stolen by the GOP.

While we (By "we" I mean the Democrats nationally, not just here on DU) are busy arguing who is the better candidate, the GOP is already weeding Dems off the voting rolls in some states. Palast stated that one recent Primary day, more than a million Dems (across several states)showed up to vote only find out that they had been kicked off the voting rolls.

But, Palast also says that it is not too late to take the General Election back! I'll listen for more........

1. Randi has Greg Palast on all the time.
I'll wait until then to listen.

Hope you enjoy, though.

2. When I saw him in October he emphasized there was little difference
between the parties. He talked about puppets and puppetmasters.

I wonder when he changed his opinion :shrug:

3. Belzer is doing a very good job
I'm listening streaming on the net. He just said that he would be back. Sounds like he's going to be one of the AAR talkers from time to time.

I like Randi but also need a break from her self worship. Belzer is going to be a nice change.

9. Oh please,
Giving Belzer a talk show instead of Sam Seder? That's a joke

11. That isn't the issue
Sam is great. That doesn't mean that Belzer is bad.

Keep lobbying AAR with what you want. And don't waste my time with your silly assed reasoning.

Take the last word if you wish. I'm done with you.

7. Jonathan Granoff during the second hour's been good too.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Granoff

Toward the end of the hour they were discussing the International Criminal Court, something Bill Clinton wanted the US to be a part of & GWB didn't. Wonder why?

I think Belz has been doing a great job.

I hear Granoff's still there 2pm PDT.
