Our Principles and Policies radio show for Wednesday April 24, 2013. Barry Sheets and Chuck Michaelis analyze an article supposedly written by former Congressman Gabrielle Giffords which attempts to build a case for new gun control legislation but in the end manages to be an example of how logical fallacy can moot your entire argument when people who read closely publish what they find.

Principles and Policies Podcast for 4/9/2013- Is The Senate A Mere Debating Society Or Does It Make Law?

Our Principles and Policies radio show for Tuesday April 9, 2013.
