Analysis of Hillary Clinton Confirmation Hearings

AirTalk for January 13, 2009

Larry Mantle discusses Hillary Clinton's confirmation hearings to become Secretary of State with Ed O'Keefe of the Washington Post, and Andy Barr of Politico.

A Conservative Look Back At The Bush Administration

AirTalk for January 13, 2009

Bush ran in 2000 as a "uniter" willing to work across the political spectrum. Ultimately, things didn't exactly work out that way, to say the least. But his administration's policies also formed a split within the Republican Party. Neo-Conservatives, who support an aggressive, pre-emptive foreign policy, supported Bush's policies--if not always how they were administered. More classical Republicans felt Bush was overreaching in foreign entanglements. Moreover, the Libertarian wing of the Republican Party has often been highly critical of Bush for his expansion of government and the consolidation of power in Washington. Larry checks in with a variety of conservatives including Tom Minnery of Focus on the Family, Matthew Continetti of The Weekly Standard, Jon Fleischman of The California Republican Party, and Mike Tanner of the Cato Institute for their thoughts on the Bush legacy.
