May 29, 2009 by GregC

May 29, 2009 by GregC

On Friday, President Obama called for a stronger, more focused effort towards protecting the U.S. infrastructure, which is controlled almost entirely through computers.  How vulnerable are we to attacks and viruses?  How difficult is it to upgrade our cyber-security?  What’s the right way to get the job done and what’s the wrong way?  And can the security ever get ahead of those trying to cause us harm?  We ask Randy Skoglund, executive director at Americans for Technology Leadership.

The Case Against Sonia Sotomayor

May 28, 2009 by GregC

Several conservative organizations are already pushing members of the U.S. Senate to vote against the nomination of Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor. Why? What do they see in her past statements and decisions that cause them alarm? And why should Republican senators fight against this nomination even though they probably can’t block it? We ask Wendy Long of the Judicial Confirmation Network.

Dr. Tim Ball Slams Pelosi’s Call for Inventory to Be Taken on Americans’ Energy Use

May 28, 2009 by GregC

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is touting the push for climate change legislation during her trip to China this week.  She is also calling for an inventory to be taken on energy use.  Does she mean we all need to be good stewards of the environment or that the government will take action if we don’t use less energy?  How is China running roughshod over the U.S. on the issue of climate change?  And why is the momentum among the public moving decisively in the direction of global warming skepticism?  We ask Dr. Tim Ball, former professor of climatology and a leading scientific voice against the global warming hysteria.

What Fate Awaits General Motors?

May 28, 2009 by GregC

Within days, the fate of auto giant General Motors will be detailed by the federal government. Why is GM open to bankruptcy after months of kicking and screaming against it? Why did the negotiations with bondholders seem to go much better in the case of GM compared to the friction in the Chrysler case? What is the actual plan to return GM to profitability? What will a more prominent role for the United Auto Workers mean for the future of the auto industry? And do GM and Chrysler officials really believe the government-mandated course of action really steer them back in the right direction? We ask Marty Padgett, editor of thecarconnection.com.
