*** On this week's Citizen Radio:
Citizen Radio basks in the semi-awfulness of this week’s election results:
- Shame in Maine: Prop 1 robs gay couples of the right to marriage and America once again treats gay people as second class citizens
- Zaftig charlatan, Chris Christie, becomes governor of New Jersey. Jamie doesn’t react well.
- Michael Bloomberg proves not even $100 million can buy you significant amounts of love, and also beautifully illustrates why America needs campaign finance reform
Yet there was also good news!
- CA 10: Where Progressives reigned supreme (not that the media will tell you that)
- NY 23: Victory for Bill Owens, the fairly unimpressive, moderate Democrat (who at least isn’t as crazy as Doug Hoffman!)
- Medical marijuana expansion passed in Maine! They love weed, but apparently hate gay people
Also:
- Allison fights war veterans on BBC radio – kind of – while Jamie stands in the cold
- The Afghanistan pullout option: is it time for America to leave Afghanistan?
- The Swine Flu, and the vaccine – what should you do? Is the vaccine safe? What role do factory farms play in the Swine Flu? Who profits from the vaccine?
- Jamie tries to empathize with Conservatives
- Citizen Radio explores why leaving human rights to statewide propositions may be a bad thing
- All about Maher Arar, a Syrian-born Canadian citizen and victim of extraordinary rendition. Arar, an innocent man, was kidnapped by the United States and sent to Syria where he was horrifically tortured for an entire year.
Upcoming guests include:
- Jane Hamsher from FireDogLake
- Anna Baltzer
- Howard Zinn
