8. Lol! No way - I just heard about it while waiting in my car
to pick up my daughter from practice - it is on Sirius left - and I was very impressed by their gesture. It is not an easy thing to do - I was in a 24 hour dance-a-thon once. I nearly couldn't do it - so to TALK on air about the same subject for that long in the hopes that people will take notice is pretty cool - to me, at least.

And I have been listening to them - they are exhausted, but they keep pluggin.

I am an oldie but goodie! No young turk, me.

9. I share you chuckle FLDem...we're both oldies but goodies
listening to the young.. You know when I was a young adult,politics was nowhere to be found for me so,my hat's off to these YoungTurks for advancing our goals....NO ON alito BTW what disturbs me about alito is
1. he supports the strip searching of 10 yr.old girls,I have 2 young nieces
2. he supports mentally challenged individuals who are sodomized at work,put the burden on the mentally challenged to prove the workplace was hostile.
3. he was not forthcoming with his testimony, threats of subpeona's were mentioned.. so,there is where I am..

hello from NYC...

2. They have a show on Sirius Left.
There are three hosts, and they are pretty good. They were all fired up when I listened to them yesterday.
