Guest: Heather Hurlburt
It’s Two-For Tuesday which means nothing on The Majority Report (unless Sam wants to spin two Led Zep songs in a row). Sam starts the show with more updates on Egypt:
Google helping Egyptians to speak out
More voices from Egypt – on Twiturn
It may be spreading – Jordan’s King dismisses cabinet
The ghost of Reagan strikes again – Florida judge rules all of the health care reform bill – THE WHOLE THING – unconstitutional
Next, Sam welcomes Heather Hurlburt, Executive Director of the National Security Network and former Special Assistant and Speechwriter to President Clinton, speechwriter for Secretaries of State Albright and Christopher, and member of the State Department’s Policy Planning staff to talk about developments in Egypt and her piece in The New Republic called Five things you should know about the Egyptian riots.
Finally on today’s Post Show Sam takes listener IMs that leads him to hit topics like how Andrew Breitbart is like Mark Maron, who sabotaged Michelle Bachmann and made her LOOK crazy, Gallagher on WTF, the facts of life, and name-drop Tuesday.
Watch how Sam can push Breitbart’s buttons.
Not sure how to IM Sam? We put together a quick “How To” on setting up Instant Messenger with the AIM Express app.
