We might make it to articles this week but I'm not going to promise it.  If we do, it will be the article list from last week.  Those articles can be found at Articles for Episode 224: Where the Power Lies.

Articles for Episode 224: Where the Power Lies

It's been an interesting week and lots of thingshave been happening. We're going to take another week off from the primary review and talk about other things.

We're probably not going to make it through the articles this time (yes, again), mainly because there are some other concepts that need to be addressed. Some comments from a listener prompted our first video posting and in this episode we're going to talk on grander terms about more issues related to that. If we get to them, here are the articles for this episode:

• Quote of the Day - Sowell on Johnny
• Lights go off around globe for Earth Hour
• Revolt to ouster President Assad is over, says Syrian official
• Washington Digest: House Republicans pass bill that shrinks federal spending
• Biden: "We Want To Create A Global Minimum Tax"
• Obama urges 'Buffett rule' passage
• Clinton: Iran agrees to new nuke talks
• Obama Finds Oil in Markets Is Sufficient to Sideline Iran

And yes, there were other articles that caught our eye. Here they are as well:

Episode 221: Where is Our Apology?

Ya know, it really helps when I actually post the podcast episode to the website in a timely manner!  Sorry for the delay in getting this one online folks!  We had some fun talking about a variety of things that officials (or public figures) apologized for and other things that will never get one.

One interesting impact of not posting the episode until later is the fact that I get to include a comment thread I received via IM from one of our regular listeners:

D: I don't listen to Randi myself...I find her too harsh. but I don't think your comparison holds water. Rush is on what, 6,000 stations and is in the news virtually every day. Randi is on what, 6? She might talk a lot of trash, but if it's under the radar, nobody will ever pay attention to it.

ECC: That's akin to saying nobody's going to listen to the pastor of a small church that says he's going to have a Qua'ran BBQ, right?
