Good Politics Radio – Wisconsin

Left, Right and Center
from KCRW

Left, Right and Center is a weekly half-hour radio broadcast and podcast produced by KCRW in Santa Monica.

The panel spends the main part of today’s red, white, and blue show discussing patriotism.  They remind listeners of George Washington’s famous and powerful Farewell Adress when he warns us to “guard against the impostures of pretended patriotism.”

After a short break the panel discusses Senator Obama’s recent move to the center and Senator McCain’s recent campaign shakeup.

The four participants on the show are Robert Scheer who represents the left, Tony Blandley who represents the right, Matt Miller who represents the center, and Arianna Huffington who represents the progressive blogosphere.

At the end of this entertaining show the participants each have a 30 second rant to summarize the issue that each sees as most significant.
