How We Got Here: The Decline of the 10th Amendment Michael Boldin of Tenth Amendment Center joins the show to discuss the history and current state of the 10th Amendment to the US Constitution.

Well, after almost 5 years of hiatus I decided to shake myself out of the mothballs. Also, I was getting a little tired of muttering news-induced obscenities to myself and searching frantically for my bottle of crazy pills. (I'm all out.) Thus... Unspun with AnnaZ on Blog Talk Radio(also available as podcasts on iTunes!) I did a 30-minute test show with a speaker phone ("primitive talk radio") last week and had so much fun we got new equipment and thought I'd go official. This week...

Media critic Arlen Williams writes today that the press just can't seem to get it right when it comes to U.S. Senate candidate Alan Keyes . . . OPINION -- A little mental background music, if you please. As you read this, you may recall Sonny & Cher's hit from the 60's. Don't forget the bass part as we adjust the wording a bit. . .Deceit goes on,Deceit goes on.Press keeps pounding rhythm to the brain... Way-arch-ultra---conservative, ah hah;He wants you to carry a machine gun downtown.Too mean to allow you wedded bliss, if you're gay.Have-I-reminded-you-that-he's-from-out-of-state, today? Got somethin'...

Queer Eye for the Media Guy Friday, September 10, 2004 OPINION -- O-k, tell me. Last week, when you were told Alan Keyes “lashed out” against Mary Cheney, “attacking” the vice president’s daughter as a selfish hedonist, did you believe it?Come on, be straight with me. Did you believe that?Now, would you like to hear the actual interview? Here is an mp3 audio file of it. So have a listen. If you failed the bumper sticker test, “Don’t believe the liberal media,” and really thought he attacked poor Mary, come out of the closet.By the way, as unfortunate as it...
