Sellout

October 17, 2013 On Today's Program Sellout! Republicans lose debt ceiling debate… but Mitch McConnell got $2 billion for KY  Needless to say, a lot of people aren't thrilled with the "deal" the Republicans in Congress agreed to. Basically, the Senate debt ceiling plan that was later approved by the House, kicks the can down the road and does not give the GOP a victory on much of anything… Except, of course, for the $2 billion Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) secured for his home state. See Glenn's reaction to Sen. McConnell's "Kentucky Kickback" HERE.  Pursuit of the Truth, Episode 6: Who will make the final 3? Well, it's time for the contestants to show the judges what they're made of… On Wednesday night, the sixth episode of Pursuit of the Truth featured the contestants heading back to TheBlaze's NYC studios to present their two-minute sizzle reels to the judges, who held nothing back in their critiques. Get a recap of the episode HERE. TheBlaze TV subscribers can watch the entire episode on demand HERE. Yale researcher realizes the TEA Party is a lot smarter than he thought  Dan Kahn, a professor of law at Yale Law School, recently released data on the relationship between "science comprehension" and political outlooks.

Not surprisingly, names like Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, and Pat Toomey are on the list. But interestingly, the 18 "no's" also included Senators John Cornyn (R-TX) and Marco Rubio (R-FL). Why the sudden switch to fiscal conservatism? Glenn explains the votes on radio today.

The Forgotten Man is the millions of Americans who just want to be decent to one another, to use common sense, and to stay out of the games being played in Washington. Today, the Forgotten Man can be found in the 49 states that didn't get a $2 billion kickback from the debt ceiling compromise. Glenn read an email he received from one Forgotten Man on radio this morning.

Louie Gohmert's intelligence  On radio this morning, Glenn played some remarkable audio from Senator John McCain (R-AZ) talking about his Republican colleague Congressman Louie Gohmert (R-TX). Speaking on NBC's Nightly News with Brian Williams last night, Sen. McCain was asked if the Senate had lost its sense of decorum, with Williams citing a comment Rep. Gohmert made linking Sen.

Mitch McConnell?  When Ann Coulter joined Glenn on Monday's radio program, she issued a pretty strong defense of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and his actions as of late.
