Barry Goldwater was one of the most quoted yet consistently misunderstood politicians in American history. Today, his son Barry Goldwater, Jr. joins Lionel to discuss his new book, Pure Goldwater, a treasure trove of his father’s private insights and personal journal entries. Note: journals are much like primitive “blogs”.
At 11 A.M., Federal Reserve Bank expert and all-around $$$-head Doug Roberts will join Lionel to discuss conspiracy theories surrounding our nation’s economic institutions.
FROM THE ENDLESS CAMPAIGN
Edwards endorses Obama, giving rise to speculation that he’ll be picked as Barack’s VP. Bill Clinton continues to endorse Hillary.
Mrs. Clinton keeps her chin decidedly up, desperately searching for meaning in her meaningless victory in West Virginia. Oh, we’re just joshing ya, Hillary – you go, girl!
News from the broader campaign to dethrone Congressional Republicans: the GOP got STOMPED in Mississippi, and now they’ve done wet themselves with fear. If a heavily Republican district in Mississippi can flip to the Dems, it seems that the GOP has a lot to be scared about. Squeal. Squeal like a pig for me.
IN THE MÉLANGE
George W. Bush is a huge fan of the Austin Powers films, and apparently does a mean impression of Dr. Evil. One's a megalomaniacal jackass; the other appeared in the Austin Powers films.
Dermott and Doobie love a good “Church ‘N State” debate…GO STATES!!! Lionel's home state of Florida may be on the verge of marrying religion and government. It looks like a shotgun wedding to us. Always wear a condom.
And much, much more …

Comment on Keith Olbermann
Lionel,
love your show and listen every day. But I have to agree with Keith Olbermann's comments on Bush JR. Your stand that we (the average Joe) has to show respect for the President. How about the president earn that respect first.
Keith is right. He has the cojones to call it the way it is.
You should listen to him.
