Summary
Someone has attempted to assasinate Democrats so often demonized on right-wing media, and the president commented 'They brought it on themselves.' Thom draws a historical parallel to a key turning point in the fascist takeover of Germany. Callers respond. Thom reads from his book 'Screwed - The Undeclared War on the Middle Class and What We Can Do About It. Congressman Mark Pocan takes listener questions on issues including universal health care, midterm elections, and more. Bob Ney beams in from Talk Media News to update us on the political news behind the headlines.
