Blog Talk Radio Links

The following are links to odds and ends I mentioned this evening as co-host of the Rocky Mountain Alliance Blog Talk Radio show:

  • Neal Gabler’s ironic Los Angeles Times column on Joe McCarthy and the American conservative movement: a true “triumph of the American imagination”
  • Historian Arthur Herman’s sage insights into lessons America should take from the grim Islamist terrorist attacks last week in India
  • Chicago Tribune editorial from 2006 justifying jeers for U.S. Senator Dick Durbin’s attempt to secure a pardon for corrupt former Republican Gov. George Ryan – in particular, the tragic but inspiring story of the Willis family – featured in the Tribune editorial – is worth a read
  • And, of course, thanks to guest Todd Bensman – check out his great work

We’re all the buzz at Face The State, even if we “still have a few kinks to work out”. So please catch the podcast of this episode, and join us for next week’s show with special guest Ryan Frazier.
