Hour One:
Part 1, Part 2 - MTNP tries to right a wrong as NH Democrat Congresswoman Carol Shea-Porter called Gold Star Mom Natalie Healy a liar about her not contacting Natalie during a debate with Jeb Bradley (Republican candidate for NH Congressional District 1) . NH Democrat Leader Ray Buckley compounds the slur when he accused this lady (whose Navy SEAL son was killed in Afganistan trying to rescue his buddies) of allowing herself to be "used" by the Bradley campaign.
Natalie and Debbie Lee, another Gold Star Mother who witnessed the incident, call into the show as Jeb is in studio.
Part 3 - Doug and Skip discuss on that Carol Shea-Porter refuses to contact certain constituents and refused a debate. Taxes and Obama. Paying final respect to National Guard Cpl Dimond of Franklin, NH. Doug brings up the Pemi Machine Gun shoot to be held tomorrow.
Hour Two:
Leslie Carbone comes on to talk about her upcoming book: Slaying Leviathan: The Moral Case for Tax Reform (Potomac, 2009) and why it is important (funding only what government should be doing for enumerated powers, violating the law of the land and we have to pay for it - Joe the Plumber, undermining incentives to create wealth, how the Left and Right view the tax code. Morally, those that have worked for the rewards deserve them - not others; the role of charity vs taxes. Those that game the system ). Part 1 Part 2
John Russo returns on to discuss the event that Episcopal Bishop Gene Robinson is attending here in Gilford. Points - the demise of the "mainline Protestant denominations" as they move to a social gospel from an individual gospel, secular humanism vs absolute Christian theology, "the slippery slope" and the homosexual agenda Part 1 Part 2
