BTL # 182 - Lady of Leisure - 1/4/16

This week on BTL...we begin 2016 with a look towards the Iowa and New Hampshire primaries, which are just weeks away!  Ted Cruz is in the lead in Iowa and Trump got a lock on NH, but the real race is for second, third, and fourth place (a.k.a. first place in the much more desperate establishment sub-primary.)  All that, plus an exciting look at some other races to watch, the return of the Cliven Bundy's clan, some hopeful news regarding gun control (did we ever think we'd say that?) and so much more!

BTL #181 - Talk Of Retirement - 12/20/15

This week on a special bi-coastal BTL, we're joining the chorus of people who think it's time for Debbie Wasserman Schultz to give up the ghost and leave the DNC in less compromised/incompetant hands.  Though even her Saturday debate scheduling couldn't stop us from sort of semi-watching the Dem Debate, most of what we took away involved Martin O'Malley being super irrelevant and a little sad.  One debate we didn't snore through, however, was last week's GOP debate because GUYS it was 25% fresh shenanigans (though, sadly, also 75% warmongering)!  Tune in for our rundown of both debates and more before we disappear for two full weeks into the Christmas ether!

"Experience" and "Good Ideas" are not the same thing

"Experience" and "Good Ideas" are not the same thing

It’s time for us to have a chat with America about the value of Hillary’s foreign policy “experience," because “experience” and “good ideas” are not interchangeable.
