Show Highlight:

Whoopi to McCain: 'Should I be worried about being a slave again'?

On Today's Program

Whoopi fears McCain will bring slavery

When answering a question about what type of judges he will elect, McCain is thrown a curveball from Whoopi Goldberg on 'The View'. Whoopi wants to know if McCain is elected, will that mean the eventual return of slavery? That's the kind of high brow questions (Elisabeth aside) that you get from the liberal ladies on 'The View'. Sounds familiar----oh yeah, that's right---remember in 2004 when the military draft was rumored to return? Ah, isn't election time just wonderful? Read the transcript here. Insiders listen to the worst question ever, here.

Breaking down the Bank mess

It's a complicated situation, and for those of us (including Glenn) schlubs who don't have the time to study all of this stuff, Glenn breaks down exactly what this bank meltdown means. The best part is he does it in a way that uses Paris Hilton, sex, Monopoly, and other analagies that are much more fun than amortization tables. Find out how the bank mess affects your life---read the transcript here. Insiders listen here.

Palin Smearfest

The media just continues to do the best they can to make the case that Sarah Palin is a wacky, right wing nut job who should be so far away from the White House that she'd be in...well...Alaska. Glenn's latest column for CNN.com tackled many of the smears that have been furthered in the media and debunked them---Glenn says this is the perfect column to pass on to your friends to help correct their 'she said the Iraq war is a mission from God' mentality. Read it here.

Liberal Media Headline of the Day: 'Whites help McCain to slim lead' -- Typical liberal media to run that as the headline in a story that reported this fact: 'Fully 47 percent say Obama lacks the proper experience - an even worse reading than the 36 percent who had the same criticism about McCain running mate Sarah Palin, serving her second year as Alaska governor after being a small-town mayor.'

Biden Sighting!: Good news, the media Amber Alert on Joe Biden has paid off---he finally was covered in the news today as he gave some speech that no one cared about. Perhaps they were covering it in hopes the gaffe machine would tell someone in a wheelchair to stand up (like he did last week)? Biden had been missing from media reports since after the Democratic National Convention, around the time when Sarah Palin hit the scene.

Arguments Against Idiots

Today, Glenn argues the idiot about those crazy right wing religious zealots. 'We don't need someone who thinks dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago with access to the nuclear codes!'. As the election season heats up, you are going to need to stock up on duct tape because the arguments are only going to get dumber from here on the way to November. Get the winning arguments here.
