Should Congress' pay be cut? A novel idea: Lou on Tuesday was joined by CONGRESSWOMAN ANN KIRKPATRICK (D-AZ), who discusses her "Taking Responsibility for Congressional Pay Act." That legislation calls for salary cuts for senators and representatives by 5 percent.

And JONAH GOLDBERG, editor at large for National Review Online, discussed the prospects of ObamaCare and all the latest incidents of "liberal fascism."

Also on today's broadcast, one New York Congressman said he was forced to resign not because of sexual misconduct but because of his NO vote on ObamaCare. Tune in to hear what he said about Rahm Emanuel. Plus, one lawmaker suggested Congress should see its pay cut -- how will her colleagues feel about that?

On the show Monday Lou hosted a roundtable discussion of three of the best political minds: Democratic strategist Robert Zimmerman, Republican strategist and former campaign manager Ed Rollins, and Pulitzer Prize winning columnist for the New York Post Michael Goodwin. Each weighed in on a host of issues including ObamaCare, the shady dealings of the President in an attempt to receive more support, and the state of both major political parties.

And CAROL SWAIN, Professor of Law and Political Science at Vanderbilt University, discussed a gathering of African-Americans being put together by talk show host Tavis Smiley to press the case for a "black agenda," and why several prominent African-American leaders are getting behind New York Governor David Paterson despite his questionable dealings.

On the broadcast, we tackled the issue of President Obama, flanked by fellow his theatrical whitecoats, saying he will do everything in his power to make the case for his health-care plan. Of course, we all know what that means: reconciliation and a plan we don't want. Plus, is the administration finally coming to its senses about the 9/11 terror trials? Now comes word that they might try these terrorists in civilian court: Are Eric Holder's days numbered? And a tepid jobs report out today: But why are public sector workers earning so much more than the private sector?

Plus, President Obama says "I will do everything in my power to make the case for reform." Now we know what he means: The White House nominated one undecided Democrat's brother to the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit. Pay for play? Is this Change you can believe in?

Thursday, Lou was joined by attorney ALAN GURA, who argued in front of the Supreme Court on Tuesday. Gura discussed yet another threat to our 2nd Amendment rights in the McDonald V. City of Chicago case and the oral arguments he made.

TONY PERKINS, President of the Family Research Council, explained why an invitation to speak at an event for the Air Force was rescinded because of his stance on Don't Ask, Don't Tell.

Congressman Dan Burton (R-5th district Indiana) talked about the trial set to begin on three Navy Seals who were brought to military court for supposedly giving a bloody lip to a known terrorist they captured. Neal A. Puckett, Attorney and Counselor at Law Lieutenant Colonel, USMC (RET) and representative for Navy SEAL Matthew McCabe joined in on the conversation.

And BILL MURCHISON, senior columns writer for The Dallas Morning News and author of There's More to Life Than Politics, explained why Democrats planning to go it alone on health care do so at their own peril.

Plus, the Culture of Corruption continues for the Democrats: Rep. Charlie Rangel finally relinquishes his chairmanship of the Ways and Means Committee. And will a balanced budget amendment solve many of our nation's fiscal problems? We'll break it all down for you today.

Entering the Independent Nation on Wednesday will be LARRY KLAYMAN, founder of Freedom Watch and Judicial Watch, to explain why ObamaCare is a fraud and why Freedom Watch is bringing a lawsuit against the Obama administration for trying to pass ObamaCare.

And DON TEAGUE, CBS War correspondent and co-author of the book, "Saved By Her Enemy: An Iraqi Woman's Journey From The Heart Of War To The Heartland Of America," discusses the upcoming Iraqi Parliament elections and his latest book.
