6 - 7pm: The Texas Miracle with Steve Krinsky
The President and his marauding gang of bandits have been trying, for
the past four years, to export to the entire country the policies that
Dubya used as governor of Texas: tax breaks for the rich, corporate
favoritism, privatization, sleazy politics and more. Steve Krinsky
talks to some of the people who stood up to the Republican
assault--with some cool Texas music thrown in the mix.
7 - 8pm: GOP Dirty Tricks: The Felon's List with Doug Schulkind and
Jessie Allen
Florida is one of just a handful of states that permanently
disenfranchises anyone convicted of felony. Some say this law --
enacted during reconstuction when freed slaves first got the right to
vote -- disproportionally affects the African American community, and
could help determine the outcome of the coming presidential election.
For an in-depth analysis of Florida's problematic law and its looming
implications, we turn to voting rights expert Jessie Allen. As
associate counsel for the Brennan Center for Justice at the New York
University School of Law, Allen is lead attorney in a major Federal
voting and civil rights suit challenging Florida's permanent voting ban
for felons.
8 - 11pm: The Alternative Coronation
Dave the Spazz is pre-empted to present an audio hijack of Dubya's
acceptance speech. Tune your TV to NBC's live coverage of the

alternative soundtrack.
(FM, stream and archive).
