Insightful author interviews
Saturday 9 PM, Sunday 6 PM and 9 PM ET
In Heroic Conservatism, former Bush speechwriter Michael Gerson argues that the Republican party needs to redefine what it means to be a conservative. He says that without embracing an outlook that is bold and compassionate, Republicans will lose the American public's support in upcoming elections. Mr. Gerson discusses his book with Richard Viguerie, direct mail pioneer and one of the founders of the modern conservative movement. Mr. Viguerie is president of ConservativeHQ.com and the author of Conservatives Betrayed.

I'm also making this inane posting so I'll know where to find the schedule this weekend.

Thanks Viva!

don't be a stranger! :hi:

BTW, I'm listening to Bill Maher while reading the schedule. I see Tweety's name and hear an unmistakable cackle. Simultaneously.

Yup, Tweety's on the Maher replay. No writers, no show.

:)

I was thinking of "A Christmas Story.'

How dare she win the race!!?

Hi, all! :grouphug:

:)

:grouphug:

Even I have to take time off from fomenting evil and chaos in the world. Why else would I look for posts from someone named "Viva_La_Revolution"? :shrug:

to have a nephew posting on DU. I'm getting old.

I really appreciate the time you put into this.

Quite an interesting mix of people there.

above-average, very intelligent questions from the audience.

:hi:

Who?

:rofl:

readers are naturally shy types. :-)

first caller, "more history"

that was all I could stand. I just started giggling... what is his book called? "My life as a top for Karl"? :rofl:

He did better than 8 of 10 interviewees do. The kid has a lot of talent.

This I know is not a popular position, lol, but performance is fascinating to me and he did really well. :shrug:
