Mark was on Money Rocks. The three topics are divided into three separate videos:

Debate over the Lower Manhattan Islamic Cultural Center
(which FOX calls the “Ground Zero Mosque”)

Is President Obama Muslim? Of Course Not.
So Why do Polls Show a Significant Number of Americans Think So?

Corrupt Contractors Rip Off the Military
And the Pentagon Lets Them Do It

Roger Clemens’ Indictment for Lying to Congress About Steroid Use

August 28th, 2010

I support putting him jail, but not for a long period of time.
Perjury is bad, no doubt.  But there are far worse perjuries than his.

Mark Hosts Clout with Richard Greene

Mark on “Cashin In”

August 27th, 2010

Part 1:

Armed with a magna cum laude Harvard degree in economics and a Washington Post article saying that business executives are hoarding cash and not creating jobs because there’s not enough demand for their products, I disagree with FIVE FOX hosts who all claim that businesses never hoard cash (despite the fact that they admit to doing so in the article). They claim that businesses will always expand their businesses and willy-nilly hire workers, even when no one’s buying their products and it would make inventory pile up. Then they say Mark doesn’t understand economics!

Part 2:
Mark defends Government programs that work: FEMA and Cash for Clunkers

Glen Beck’s Rally

August 24th, 2010

Dr. Martin Luther King did not only stand for racial justice: he stood for justice for all oppressed peoples (including women and Jews, Latinos and gay people); he stood for economic justice (which Glen Beck ridicules), and he stood against wasteful military spending on needless wars. As Beck attempts to co-opt and distort the legacy of our American heroes, we need to remind Americans who our heroes were and what they stood for.

Mark is on the Leslie Marshall show for one hour tonight (hosted by Brad Bannon).

Mark on “Money Rocks”

August 20th, 2010

In the first excerpts, host Eric Bolling tries to blame corruption and drunk driving on the Democrats, as if they were the only politicians that had engaged in such things. As I point out, the Republicans all do the same, if not worse:

In these excerpts, Eric Bolling shows he opposes Government regulation, even if it’s to help Catholic nuns against Morgan Stanley:

I Debate Megyn Kelly on the Economy and Obama’s Poll Numbers

August 18th, 2010

I thought this was a really good, tough debate.

But a number of conservatives were upset that I joked about Rush Limbaugh’s drug habit. Guess Rush can joke about Michael J. Fox’s Parkinson’s disease and call me names, but Rush’s fans can’t handle a joke at Rush’s expense.

The host didn’t know me and calls me “Mike Levin” the entire time.
