SCHEDULE AND LINK TO HEAR THE SHOW

Okay, as the host is getting nervous because the inaugural show if getting closer, FReepers are grabbing a beer and tuning in. At least, I hope they're going to tune in.

We have a great guest --- Marsha Richards from the Evergreen Freedom Foundation. Her group is making life hell for the Washington Education Association.

We will give away some CDs of THE BALLAD OF MIKE MORAN to the first person, on this thread, who can answer questions I will ask during the show.

We will name Dishonorable Mentions and the MORON OF THE MONTH.

We will talk about some news items.

If we have time near the end of the show, we will try to take a few quick FReeper calls. 866.723.4673

[Concerto in D]

Cool! Just retired from teaching in Washington State. Thank you, Doug, for asking if past dues could be claimed. Looks like Free Republic and EFF will be getting donations from the Washington Education Association. Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk!

[CFW]

Was it Eric Holder who lied to his diary? (See other anwers)

Apparently, everyone lies to their diary. It sounds better.

[hole_n_one]

tallhappy beat you!

[Republic]

Good to know the press is coming around and supporting her group! ALRIGHT!!!! I hate that unions do this $hit. I really do. How awful to use dues in a political vein with NO REGARD to the sentiments of the dues payers. You just can't get anymore un-American than that. And it goes on all the time!

[RonDog]

From http://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/1997/gen/resources/infocus/whitewater/cast3.html:

Josh Steiner -- Formerly Treasury chief of staff at the tender age of 28, Steiner essentially told Senate investigars he had lied to his diary, which said Clinton "was furious" at Roger Altman's decision to recuse himself. "Persuaded George [Stephanopoulos] that firing him [the RTC investigator] would be incredibly stupid and improper," the notes read. "I wish that my diary was more accurate," Steiner told incredulous Republicans and sympathetic Democrats.

[Bikers4Bush]

This could be interesting. My mom is a teacher and has been ticked for years that she had to belong to the union and pay dues for things she didn't support.

This will give her some ammo.

[Teacup]

Sounds like a Peter Gabriel song "I don't remember, I don't recall, I don't know anything at all...."

The Rush song, " My mind is jello."

[Republic]

Doug - have you asked her if teachers who speak out against their dues being used in such an illegal manner ever SUFFER repercussions from such action? Like lowered legal protection should they need it?

[firewalk]

Thank you Marsha Richards!

[StarFan]

You're a natural doug!

[A Citizen Reporter]

From doug's set up to the question, I already had a "crusty black pant suit" typed in as the answer......had to back out , though.....:(

[hole_n_one]

Outstanding!

[Republic]

MARSHA---GET A SCREEN NAME AND JOIN US!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! GREAT SHOW!

[Argh]

Here in Canaduh, our Supreme Court ruled that unions can do what they like with the fees, and tough beans for any members who don't like it. The Merv Lavigne case. Dammit.

[TLBSHOW]
