Go to the source link http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5068741
and click the 'listen' button. They seem to have the options screwed up so that Realplayer gets called up for me instead of windows media player when I select WMP. But the Realplayer link works fine.

Wallis does have a really nice radio voice however. (hark, is that the sound of faint praise I hear?)

Sojourners ... I remember reading about 5 pages of one issue of their magazine. And I tried to read Jim Wallis's book. I lasted about 5 pages with that, too.
They are about as coherent and likable as Alan Colmes - who wrote another snoozer of a book.

Wallis' book is required reading in a basic English class taught by Philip Hu at Cerritos Community College in CA. The indoctrination makes me gag, but the teachers get away with it.
