Howie Carr live thread. Today's guests: Former legendary District Attorney Vincent Bugliosi will be in studio with us to discuss his new work Reclaiming History: The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy. A question or two about Charlie Manson would also not be out of place....

The typical illegal alien is 32 years-old, unskilled without a high school degree, and will eventually qualify for all government services and programs. According to Robert Rector of The Heritage Foundation the net lifetime cost (services and benefits received minus taxes paid) will be about $500,000 per person. Robert will be with is to discuss the cost of the Immigration Bill.

next month—June 18, I think—Dick Morris will be Howie’s guest. Dick’s new book is called...
“Outrage: How Liberals, Congress, Unions, Drug Companies, Big Oil, Banks, Lobbyists, Corporations, the United Nations, the World Bank, the INS, the TSA, and the Democratic Party Are Ripping Us Off, And What To Do About It (Hardcover)”

Long title eh!

Hi folks.
Looking forward to the Bugliosi interview.
Something tells me most of the calls will be about Charlie rather than Vince’s new book.

“low wage, high school dropout immigrant workers, will cost us...Z visa should be called an A plus visa, an “Amnesty
Plus”...
entitled to getting benefits despite breaking law and not paying taxes, right?

It's shameful how schools waste student "fees" like that.

Years ago, Ralph Nader conned the students at UMass to add a PIRG fee to their bills.

Any honest school administration would see this as a con job, and eliminate it. It got so far as to be a ballot question in MA. Then, some idiot judge let the PIRG people rewrite the question to make it as confusing as possible, so if you weren't prepared to understand the wording ahead of time, you were likely to vote to keep the ripping off students to give to Ralph Nader.

McCain. What an ego. Give him another set of steel balls.

Is this PIRG fee like a studebnt activities fee?

If so, The GREAT consumer advocite Ralph Nader got into all the kids/parent's wallets Even if they weren't intelligent enough to see the great man.

what a scam!!

I don't remember how it worked at UMass. At UVM, it was one of those negative checkoff things. "[X] I don't want to pay the PIRG fee".

So, it's like a business adding charges onto your bill without your consent, but if you notice them, they'll take them off.

So much for "public interest". The only interest they have it ripping people off.

Oops, meant to add, at least Howie got *his* Manson questions in.

Somehow, I think the screeners aren't letting any Manson questions in. After all, Bugliosi is promoting his JFK book.

I remember Vincent being on a lot of shows about Manson and his OJ book and I don’t recall him seeming so angry before.

But then maybe this is the first time people have actively disagreed with him and he can’t stand it.

Howie's an old school paperboy.

everything else isn't credible.

He doesn't want speculation. He wants "convicing evidence" -- except for his own speculations!

He really is an annoying jerk (not to be judgmental!). I can't stand how he keeps repeating Howie's name. (Isn't that something they teach in salesman school or something, maybe Dale Carnegie -- to keep using the person's name?)

Vince B was right about that!

The car going away in a straight line would not be a real tough shot.

He was really nasty to the callers too. I don’t think he’d make it as a talk show host — you can disagree with callers, argue with them — but you don’t sneer at them and ridicule them unless you’re looking for a different line of work.

Going down hill, even. The bolt action does give me pause, but assuming Vince is right, but 8 seconds to load and fire another two shots is a long time.

I heard Limbaugh read the story about the guy getting killed by his own car attempting to kill his girlfriend. "We're not supposed to laugh..."

When I was in the Boston area, I'd listen to various stations during the day. An author would be on a morning show, then Chris Lydon, then whatever, ...on Howie, then on Brudnoy.

My point is maybe Vince is worn out from his tour of stations. That's not to make excuses or defend him, though.

And, he's no spring chicken. Maybe Howie should have offered him some Centrum Silver.

Supposedly, McCain's been running around, missing meetings and votes, then he has the arrogance to upbraid Cornyn?

That's why Cornyn was put off, initially, by McCain strolling in, shooting off his mouth about something that he was behind the eight ball on.

Stick a fork in him. He's done.

I don't think so. Vince, OTOH...

As obnoxious as Groucho Marx, but without the charm and wit.

Why does Dick Morris forget about RINO’s in his latest book title? RINO’s are also part of the reason for almost all of the U.S. ongoing problems!

I also think that Col. Hunt is obnoxious, and Howie has him on his show way too much IMHO.

I guess Hunt thinks he's still a colonel in the army...

Yeah, he's over exposed on Howie's show, but not as much as the bozo Giles. I always turned the radio off with that guy.
