Today’s Episode:

GUESTS:

Governor Kathleen Sebelius
Democrat, Kansas
Website

First elected to the Kansas House in 1986, Gov. Sebelius left in 1994 to run for state insurance commissioner and shocked the state by winning — the first time for a Democrat in over 100 years. While there, she was credited for bringing major change to the health insurance agency and in 2002, used the strength of her reputation as a reformer to win the Governorship.

Donald B. Slutsky
Commentator, Father

Donald B. Slutsky brings over 55 years of liberal activism to the show. Ok, 54 of those were actually spent as a hardcore Republican, but we welcome him with open arms and a freshly corked pair of Birkenstocks to our team. When Don isn’t ranting on DoubleSpeak, you can find him in his homemade Situation Room (A.K.A the living room), monitoring Blitzer, Scarborough, Matthews and all the rest while calling his sons to offer political commentary and strategy for the Democratic Party.

MUSIC:

Béla Fleck and the Flecktones
