Tonight’s live episode of The
Independents (Fox Business Network, 9 p.m. ET, 6 p.m. PT,
repeats three hours later) begins with
this fun video of then-Senator Barack Obama name-checking
Jonathan Gruber as among the health care economists “I’ve stolen
ideas from liberally”:
Which is a bit different than President Obama’s characterization
of the
now-disgraced Gruber at a
press conference Sunday as “some advisor who never worked on
our staff” and whose opinion “I completely disagree” with. When
Obama was asked at that conference whether he misled the American
people to get his signature bill passed, he replied “No, I did
not.” Which definitely comes as news to us who were paying
attention in real time.
Party Panelists Guy
Benson (Townhall Political Editor) and Will Rahn (Daily Beast
senior editor) help sort through that mess, plus the
pre-emptive state of emergency in Ferguson, Bill Cosby’s
sexual assault allegations, and the Drug Enforcement
Administration’s sudden interest in
football locker rooms.
Bill Nye the Science Guy will be on to talk about his new book,
Undeniable: Evolution and the Science of Creation. Foreign
policy analyst Michael
Weiss will talk about the latest ISIS beheading. Author/energy
analyst Robert Bryce
will discuss the Keystone pipeline. And Kmele Foster will give the pros and
cons of the
controversial, surveillance-reforming USA Freedom Act, which
may go up for a Senate vote as soon as this week.
