During hours 1 and 2 of today's show the big story is Obama's "Info-Czar" [Director of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs], Prof. Cass Sunstein, and Sunstein's ideas about internet regulation and censorship, taxing or outlawing conspiracy theorists, the 2nd Amendment, etc., etc..

This guy is a real piece of work. Check out some of the articles on Infowars:

I've included his paper on Conspiracy Theories with this torrent [pdf].

Here's a quote from an OpEd piece Sunstein wrote some years ago for the Chicago Tribune:

Quote:

"In what sense in the money in our pockets and bank accounts fully ‘ours’? Did we earn it by our own autonomous efforts? Could we have inherited it without the assistance of probate courts? Do we save it without the support of bank regulators? Could we spend it if there were no public officials to coordinate the efforts and pool the resources of the community in which we live? [....] Without taxes there would be no liberty. Without taxes there would be no property. Without taxes, few of us would have any assets worth defending. [....] There is no liberty without dependency. That is why we should celebrate tax day...."

In hour 3 Jason welcomes guest Cindy Sheehan.
