The Secret Government: The Constitution in Crisis, by Bill Moyers
October 11, 2007
Bill Moyers on PBS before the fear of being labelled partisan in a polarized domestic American scene forced the most bland neutrality on productions was incredible. Here, he covers every aspect of Iran-Contra scandal under Ronald Reagan with concise and appropriate anger.
Former U.S. Secretary of Labor Robert Reich will offer his predictions about this fall’s historic civic exercise. His Distinguished Lecture in Public Policy is provocatively titled “Why a Massachusetts Liberal Will Be the Next President (and Other Amazing Prophesies)”.
Perfectly self-effacing for some predictions.
Anarchism in America

David Brooks, a “Nancy Pelosi-Democrat”, talks with Jane Wales at the World Affairs council, describing his “Arethra Franklin policy”.
