Hour 1
A Hurricane Sandy Love Story, the October Surprise nobody could have planned, bringing some people together even across party lines. Try to imagine a world where Democrats and Republicans put partisan bickering aside and work together for the common good.

What went well – faith in their government, our first responders did their job, partisanship didn’t get in the way.

What’s a citizen to do with ‘do nothing’ representation?

Hour 2
We vote and abdicate responsibility to elected officials until there’s something to complain about. What needs to happen for greater participation in the ‘mean time’

Does Obama deserve praise or criticism for stepping off the campaign trail to respond to the Hurricane Sandy impact? What about the rest that he has done – is the economic car really moving too slow, does Romney have an economic Corvette? Comment on Facebook.

Hour 3
What has Obama delivered? Bringing light to problematic issues with the platform and record of candidates. The Progressive case against Barack Obama.

Hour 1
Commentary on the movie, Pururambo
, filmmaker Pavol Barabas takes viewers on a tour of a place where earthly mysteries still dwell behind dense forests and dark swamps. Here, in a remote area of New Guinea, people dwell high in the trees. Should people from the outside be visiting isolated societies, knowing that even a visit may change their culture?

Will the real fiscal conservative stand up? Turns out spending on entitlements goes up during Republican administrations far more than during Democrat administrations.

Hour 2
Is the GOP more fiscally conservative?

The use of the R word.

Opportunistic or feverant believer, or maybe both, but at least it is very predictable – blaming hurricane Sandy on God’s wrath.

Hour 3
What’s in your canon?
The case for full disclosure.

Hour 1
The last of the Romney v Obama debates. Obama told Romney to rely on the fact checkers on Romney’s remarks on GM. Turns out Romney wasn’t lying about what he said. Noah Millman asks, “Would Romney actually implement the “omni-directional belligerence” that he campaigned on? Or would he “speak loudly and carry a toothpick.”

How much defense is enough? Winslow Wheeler points out just how much the U.S. spends on its military in comparison with other nations.

Hour 2
Defense spending policy. Are military contractors making too much?

How would the U.S. feel if Pakistan attacked the U.S. they way the U.S. attacked Pakistan?

Hour 3
Billy Graham’s web site scrubbed of all references to Mormonism as a cult. Why did Mormonism magically disappear from the list after decades of conservative fervor against Mormonism?

He says that since Darwin’s day, we’ve been told that sexual monogamy comes naturally to our species, but it doesn’t, and never has. Ryan and his wife, Cacilda Jethá, debunk almost everything we “think we know” about sex and how how our promiscuous past haunts our current struggles regarding monogamy, sexual orientation, and family dynamics.

rce Links:

Hour 1
Both Romney and Obama are confused about what the word, “Hispaniola” means. How did Columbus discover America, when there were people here already? The version you read in history textbooks or hear about from Rush Limbaugh is very sanitized. In reality – slavery in the name of God.

The Lakota nation is raising money to buy back the land taken from them.

Hour 2
What makes the film “Beware of Christians” thrilling? Angels in the architecture.

Yet another person trying to deny science by calling evolution a lie from the pit of hell.

Hour 3
Donald Mann joins us to analyze the effectiveness of political slogans. Political slogans taps into how the mind works to manipulate people to do what they want, but Mann suggests that if a candidate runs a positive campaign with no negative slogans, they won’t get elected, because they tap into fear, disrupting the ability to think clearly.

Zogby poll finds middle east countries disapprove of our policies, while 90 to 1 support our freedom. Who American is they support, what we do – they despise.

Arkansas legislative candidate, endorses death penalty for rebellious children
