Fed Up

Roy opens the show with a withering blast at our Chickenhawk in Chief, who used numerous suspicious medical conditions to dodge military service during the Vietnam war era. Worse, Dick Cheney, who cynically obtained five deferments because the military was "just not convenient for him". Yet he enthusiastically used his raw political power to lead the U.S. into a senseless invasion of Iraq. And Gingrich? Don't get Roy started!!Eleanor Clift and Tom deFrank join Roy in welcoming longtime congressman, and decorated, wounded Korean War veteran Charles Rangel to discuss his many efforts to create a program of universal service for young Americans. Current Minnesota Congressman Nolan closes the show with his own efforts to attack senseless military spending.
