June 9 edition of the Casey Lartigue Show!

* Professor Walter E. Williams returns this weekend to the Casey Lartigue Show on XM 169 The Power. We'll be talking about his recent columns.

During last week's show we had a caller who asked about a column Professor Williams wrote about blacks benefiting from slavery. That column has been attacked numerous times by hosts and callers on XM 169. So it will be interesting to hear what Professor Williams has to say.

* Following up on last week's discussion, we will present more information to debunk Memorandum 46. That's the memorandum that was allegedly written by Zbigniew Brzezinski, Jimmy Carter's former national security advisor. It is widely circulated in black leftist circles. On last week's show I read an e-mail that Brzezinski sent to me denouncing the memo as a forgery.

* We'll be looking at other news from the week. If I had to go on the air within the next few minutes, then we would talk about Gary Sheffield's comments that Major League Baseball prefers Latino players because they are easier to control. And we'd also also talk about interracial marriage to mark the 40th anniversary of the Loving v. Virginia case.

Obama debating Keyes, 2004, education excerpt

PONCE : Thank you. Let's move to the question of education. Mr. Obama, you've said that you consider education as the most important civil rights issue facing America today. Currently, your children are in private schools. If you're elected to the Senate, will you send them to public schools? OBAMA: Well, my children currently go to the lab school at the University of Chicago where I teach, and my wife works, and we get a good deal for it. But, so - - (laughter, applause) OBAMA: - -it depends on whether we move or not. And that, obviously, hinges on the election and what's gonna happen. We're gonna choose the best possible education for our children, as I suspect all parents are gonna try to do. And that's part of the reason why, consistently when I've been in the state legislature, I've tried to promote those kinds of reforms that would improve what I think is an inadequate performance by too many public schools, all across the state. PONCE : But yo

2019-10-18 Active, not busy

I recently got a call from a person in media who was surprised that I answered the phone. He follows me on Facebook, he and his team had planned to call my office, connect with an assistant, then arrange a time to talk to me directly. Instead, I answered the phone, throwing off his schedule. It isn't difficult to meet me--if you let me know the purpose. Many people say that I am busy, but I don't believe it is true. I am ACTIVE. Busy means you have no time in your schedule. But if you want to help TNKR in some way, then I can make time to meet you. If you want to chitchat, talk about memes on the Internet, talk to me about talkers who don't do anything except talk or analyze,m or debate with me? Then I will put you through to an assistant.

Thank God for the Atom Bomb

Paul Tibbets , the pilot who dropped the first A-bomb on Japan in 1945, just died at the age of 92. I agree that the dropping of the A-bombs was a proper and effective way to end WWII. The best defense I've read is Paul Fussell's "Thank God for the Atom Bomb." A couple of random thoughts about Paul Tibbets . 1) His certainty is striking. It is now so hip to be a moderate or wishy -washy. The media in particular seems to enjoy stories about American soldiers torn over the need to obey orders to fight. Tibbets would be loved today if he had expressed anguish over what he had done. In today's climate, he might even be Time Magazine's Man of the Year if he dropped the bomb in an ocean rather than obeying orders to drop it on the enemy--except that the environmentalists might then protest glorifying such an environmental hater.. 2) Soldiers who actually do their jobs—that is, eliminate the enemy—seem to play second fiddle to soldiers who get captured and must be

2017-02-12 Speech at camp (Seongdo)

I'm in Seongdo (suburbs of Seoul) this afternoon giving a speech at a leadership camp. The teacher in charge had them do research about me in advance, so the students were already familiar with TNKR! About 30 middle school students know TNKR. The best question: What's my ultimate goal with TNKR? She is one of my big fans! She invited to speak at this event and a few others.  She later became a monthly donor to TNKR and never forgets to remind how great she thinks I am! He drew this for TNKR, I used it for years. I hope I can get him to draw one for FSI! www.lovetnkr.org/donate

2018-05-25 Samantha and Jasmin visit TNKR

TNKR Members Jasmin Fosse and Samantha Cianfrone Livson visited the TNKR office twice last week! They were visiting from Finland. They had an energetic trip, visiting many sites in Seoul, and making the trip to the DMZ. They stopped at the TNKR office twice, staying for extended periods. Jasmin has been volunteering with TNKR for more than a year, our first teenager to become a Representative. She shares our many messages on Facebook, has raised money for TNKR, and even gave part of her graduation gift to TNKR ! She brought her delightful friend Samantha, who surprised us with a fantastic gift. We had some delightful discussions about North Korean refugees, TNKR, life. She left us a poignant note expressing how impressed she is with TNKR. Two TNKR students joined us over a three-hour lunch the final day. www.lovetnkr.org/donate
