Ep 242 Dear Abby (Huntsman) Jul 24, 2014

Show notes

OOPS: Please note: There's an extra fifteen minutes of empty air at the END of this week's podcast. Technical error, does not affect the whole show, but when we say goodbye at around 1:15 it's over! Thanks. We are temporarily devastated by the latest ACA ruling. And leave it to a Republican from Michigan to "forget" she has 3 million dollars in the bank. Abby Huntsman forgets about "do no harm" when it comes to foreign policy, MSNBC can't handle the Gaza heat, and the only thing that matters about Netroots Nation is who wasn't there? (Hillary Clinton and yours truly.) More at ProfessionalLeft.blogspot.com
