In addition to talking about news, we're going to be interviewing best-selling author Thomas Frank about his latest book, The Wrecking Crew - How Conservatives Ruined Government, Enriched Themselves, And Beggared The Nation". For years, I've referred to the previous administration as "Boy Blunder And The Plunderers." In fact, until the misAdministration of Bush The Lesser, I never thought I'd see the day I'd actually miss Richard Milhous Nixon. I received a copy of "The Wrecking Crew" for Christmas, and discovered a book that concisely explains how and why the GreedOverPrinciples party wrought the damage of they did.
Then we're going to take a break from politics, and talk with a pilot from Minnesota's Air National Guard, who recently returned from a two week disaster relief deployment, flying supplies frrom Puerto Rico to Haiti. The discussion with The Good Captain will be strictly non-partisan. Politics has no place with regards to respecting our fellow citizen-soldiers and supporting the job they do. Our military is all volunteer, and the people that signed up did so knowing that the price they may pay while wearing a uniform might just be the ultimate sacrifice. Anybody with any problem with what our citizen-soldiers do, needs to take it up with our elected officials - NOT the brave men and women wearing our nation's uniform. Period. End of story.
And after that conversation, it's back to politics!

I'm Guest Hosting the first hour - "Quick On The UpTake" - because Host Mike McIntee is in Copenhagen for the United Nations Climate Change Conference. We'll be talking with John Van Hecke of Mn2020.org about the local problems created by Gov. T-Bag's Unallotment; CD-03 DFL Candidate Jim Meffert, and we're very glad we'll be talking with Rep. Tim Walz! Last night Rep. Walz hosted a Town Hall about Afghanistan in Mankato; there's a story in the Mankato Free Press.
I'll also be Guest Hosting the second hour, "Minnesota Matters, Tuesday Edition." We're going to talk about breaking news, fisk Katherine Kersten's latest column, and discuss a lawsuit accusing Wells Fargo of misleading some Minnesota non-profit foundations that appeared in last Sunday's print edition of the Strib. Apparently, those local non-profits aren't the only ones offended by Wells Fargo's "stewardship". And, just which foundations in that Strib story, allegedly took a hit because of that "stewardship"? The story stated that one is the Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi Foundation. Yes, THAT "Ciresi". Seems to me, that Wells Fargo is in a big world of legal hurt. Unfortunately, Mike Ciresi won't be able to call in about that....today. Maybe later; if I were a betting man, I'd bet a bunch that this story isn't going away.
Also expect some snark about how a newspaper can publish some great journalism, like that Wells Fargo story, but also allow Kersten space...
