Obama Leads; Which Way, GOP?; Greenspan's Goof
Tony's a trifle testy over unfair allegations he says are being made against Republicans, the McCain campaign and Sarah Palin. He predicts the next conservative revolution will be populist, not intellectual. Also, is "socialism" code for racism? Is "family values?" Who's really using the race card and how? Plus, a big discussion about capitalism, the so-called free market, concentration of capital and corporate fascism. Did Greenspan undermine the argument for capitalism by admitting his surprise about how little oversight was being exercised at top financial institutions?
