Saturday Session with Bishop goes live Saturday at 5p CST on 970 WMAY, the News and Talk of Springfield.
Joe Biden has made some very compelling comments lately. The Democrat Vice Presidential candidate is very much in tune with foriegn affairs being a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, and also on the Foreign Relation Committee in the Senate. He recently mentioned that Barack Obama will be tested by the international community, if elected president. Biden equated the test Obama would receive to that of Kennedy. Kennedy was not dealing with small, petty foreign affairs ... there were nukes just of our coast! Let us not forget his statements on September 10, 2001 to the National Press Club about threats to America.
Is Biden on to something? Last week we discussed the need for continued vigilance in upholding civil liberties in the face of increased terror threats. Type "powder" into Google's news search, and you get this story, and this one, this one, and this one; all from different places! LA Calif. Police also says there will be a terror attack before the election!
It is obvious that the next president will be intimately tied to special interests and very well connected individuals. Even with third party candidates crying foul because of the corporate media control of the election process, people will still blindly follow the two party paradigm. Chuck Baldwin, the Constitution Party candidate, and Ralph Nader, the independent candidate blamed for giving the election to bush in 2000, held a debate Thursday night ... what are they saying that the mainstream media will not pick up on?
Also on Saturday Session: Anarchy vs. Democracy ... Where's the beef? Anarchist philosophy has almost been eradicated and extinguished, mainly because of the opposition to centralized control many anarchists hold. The arguments raised by anarchy hold quite a bit of water. Why is the minority opinion automatically discounted? What two views of reality does the anarchist point of view reveal? What is the anarchists solution to the problems of democracy? We will dive into this controversial topic with your calls to the Public Sphere at 217.629.7970 or email bishop@wmay.com
