Segment one is always a cornucopia of conversations, a political potpourri, packed into a roughly 25 minute round-table relay.  This week is no exception.  We’ve got ‘Firearms Season,’ Jimmy Pindell goes to print, those among us who are not ‘camera ready,’ Jonathan Gruber as poster-child for the left and its fascistic regulatory state, the diminished … Read more
