You say you don't live within the WLS broadcast area? Not to worry. You can go here to listen to the program, live, on the web.[You may encounter some technical problems in signing on-- allow five minutes, or so, for following the prompts for technical difficulties, and you should be able to hear WLS live on the web] See here for Tom’s Blog which has Tom's thoughts on a great many matters, political and otherwise.
Upset with something Berkowitz said on his show [www.PublicAffairsTv.com] or the [Public Affairs YouTube.com page], something he wrote on this blog or just the way he looks? Tom Roeser’s show on Sunday night is your chance to fire back. A free fire zone, so to speak. Also, you can help shape the show and its topics by calling in with your questions and comments—312-591-8900. Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians, Independents, Peronistas, Communists [no collect calls, please], Palin boosters, Palin critics, elitists, clingers to religion and guns, outside agitators and others are, of course, all welcome.
Tonight's show may touch on the continuing magic of Sarah Palin and how she handled Charlie Gibson in her first "national," media interview, whether the "change you can believe in," slogan has now been permanently stolen from Obama by McCain, is the Presidential race now a statistical tie, has Sarah Palin demonstrated she has the knowledge of domestic and foreign policy issues to go the distance, has Speaker Mike Madigan settled on capital plan he can live with, the possible impeachment of Governor Bungalow Blagojevich and whether there is credible evidence of an impeachable offense by Blago [Watch here the Public Affairs show with Rep. Durkin [dealing in part with this topic], [watch here the Public Affairs show with Rep. Dunkin dealing in part with this topic], the Blagojevich meltdown; Are the Republicans in Illinois now the party of ethics and better jobs [[Watch here this episode of Public Affairs with Senator Dillard dealing in part with this topic], will there be a capital budget, Will Sarah Palin strengthen the Presidential ticket enough to help Repubicans pick up State Senate and StateHouse seats Should there be a Chicago casino, should there be more gaming and perhaps additional casinos in Illinois,For a look back at how the more things change, the more they stay the same, See here for a March 25, 2007, retro TV interview with Illinois Chief Operating Officer John Filan about Gov. Blagojevich's long defunct Gross Receipts Tax, archived shows with State Reps. Mary Flowers [D-Chicago] and Jim Durkin [R-Western Springs] discussing State Budget and Tax issues ].
Who knows, we may even discuss so-called education funding reform of Senator/Rev. Meeks and the latest proposal of Meeks-Gidwitz [Watch here the show w/ Rep. Dunkin dealing in part w/ this topic], economics, school vouchers- school choice, why Governor Bobby Jindahl would have made a better McCain VP, charter schools, jobs and free lunches .
This reporter doesn't know the topics for tonight—they are determined by Mr. Roeser, with some incisive suggestions, no doubt, by his lovely, energetic and intelligent wife Lillian. However, an educated guess is that the questions will consist of various Illinois and Presidential political issues, possibly selected from the following questions, some of which are holdovers from prior episodes of "Political Shootout," or "Public Affairs."
Of course, you can call and ask any of the below questions or whatever you like. As with University of Chicago Ph. D. prelim questions in economics over the years, many of the questions on Political Shoot-out stay the same each week, only the answers change [or do they?]. And you are Free to Choose, so to speak, as this is the land of Milton Friedman, the late, great Nobel Prize Laureate in Economics from the University of Chicago [WWMFS, i.e., what would Milton Friedman say? is the question we classically ask, followed with:
-- Could Paul Vallas win a Republican Primary for Governor? Would he make the run?
--Did Abdon Pallasch of the Sun-Times get it wrong when he suggested Palin got it wrong as to what admitting Georgia to NATO might mean?
--Has Keith Oblermann completely lost his mind?
--Is Tim Russert turning over in his grave when he sees the growing dominance of Olbermann, Maddow and Matthews over what is left of the NBC news division.
--Could Ald. Sandi Jackson be the next Mayor of the City of Chicago? the next Cong. from the 2nd CD?
--Will Cong. Jackson be the next Junior Senator from the State of Illinois? Cong. Jan Schakowsky? Cong. Rahm Emanuel?
--WasChicago Sun-Times columnist Laura Washington correct, once upon a time, to be concerned that "concealed carry," would put a dangerous person with a gun next to her in a movie theater, or is that more likely to be the case without a concealed carry law?
--Does the Chicago Public School system spend more than $14,000 per kid per year to try to educate kids? Does Arne Duncan tell the truth about this? If not, why not?
--Was Barack Obama Emil Jones' show pony, as Senator Rauschenberger contends? [watch here]
--Was Obama way too cautious in his handling of the Pastor Disaster? in his selection of a VP?
--Is Obama's cautious nature both his strength and his weakness?
--IsObama suffering from buyer's remorse?
--Are voters concerned about Obama's lack of "shared values"?
--Will voters be concerned about Gov. Palin's lack of national experience? lack of knowledge of national security or foreign policy issues?
--In light of what has transpired about Rev. Wright, Rezko and Ayers, does Sen. Dillard reqret the TV ad he cut for Obama last year. [Watch Sen. Dillard discuss this topic].
-Will the state GOP cave in the next few months on its hostility to increased taxes? Will House Republican leader Cross lead the capitulation?
-Is it now unlikely that 2006 10th CD Democratic nominee Dan Seals [D-Wilmette] can come back to beat Cong. Kirk [R-Highland Park] this year?
Does Obama's presence at the top of the ballot give Seals an increasingly small chance to beat suburban agenda Kirk? Are both Seals and Kirk playing a prevent defense? Isn't that a dumb strategy for Seals?
-Is WTTW's Chicago Tonight in need of an aggressive political interviewer to boost its sagging ratings and its lack of balance? Which cable TV personality in the Chicago Metro area could provide it?
Did WTTW gets it's money's worth of convention coverage from Marin, Brackett and Samuels?
Should Chicago Week in Review be renamed "Liberal Week in Review."
Did Flannery exhibit a certain lack of balance on his appearance this past Friday on WTTW's Liberal Week in Review.
Is Carol Marin just a "Working gal."
-Is it past time for a change in leadership in the State GOP?
- Could Colonel Jill Morgenthaler (D-Des Plaines) upset first term Republican incumbent Cong. Peter Roskam in the Illinois 6th CD? Watch Morgenthaler go after Roskam here. Why is Roskam hiding from Public Affairs? Why does Roskam hide from probing questions?
--Could Scott Harper upset ten year Republican incumbent Cong. Judy Biggert in the Illinois 13th CD. Watch Harper go after Biggert here. Is Biggert hiding from Public Affairs? Biggert hiding from probing questions?
-- Is Ozinga a likely winner over Halvorsen in the 11th? Halvorsen just wrong for the District?
--Could Greenberg upset Bean in the 8th CD? Watch a virtual conversation w/Bean-Greenberg here. Where will Greenberg get the money to finance such an upset?
