In this edition, Tom Paine chats to Cliff May, head of the Foundation for the Defence of Democracies, about his recent appearence on The Daily Show With Jon Stewart, civility in political discourse, and what constitutes torture? Tom Paine dives into the SNN mail bag, a public service announcement is made regarding a man wandering the streets of London, scared, confused, completely out of touch with reality and convinced he is the prime minister, Australia's "chick, chick, boom" girl shows she she's become a tiny celebrity, Doug Payton compares and contrasts two very different responses to two murders this week, and Mery Yourish reviews President Obama speech in Cairo. Two thumbs way, way down would be an understatement.

All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.
~ Sir Winston Churchill
Battles are won by slaughter and maneuver. The greater the general, the more he contributes in maneuver, the less he demands in slaughter.
~ Sir Winston Churchill
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
~ Sir Winston Churchill
