HWX, with Rep. John Kline

If it’s Saturday, this must be the Hinderaker Ward Experience (HWX). 
John Hinderaker of Power Line and me, Brian Ward of Fraters Libertas, get together once again to cover the news of the week.  And what a week it was, with the Supreme Court ruling on Obamacare and the Attorney General of the United States being held in contempt of Congress.  It’s a great week to talk about the law, and who better to cover that topic than me and John? 

That’s right lucky listeners, one of us has a Harvard Law degree and the other has watched the movie The Paper Chase like a dozen times.


Later we’re joined by the distinguished Congressman from Minnesota’s 2nd District, John Kline.  He’s a member of the Republican leadership, the Chairman of the Education and Workforce committee, and the most accurate rifle shooter in Congress (boom!). Rep. Kline provides his thoughts on Obamacare, Eric Holder, and the upcoming election. 

We wrap things up with Loon of the week (focusing on what the Fast and Furious investigation is REALLY about) and This Week in Gatekeeping (another award winning journalist goes down in flames).
The show is brought to you by the fine folks at Audible.com.  They are the LEADING provider of audiobooks with more than 100,000 downloadable titles across all types of literature, including fiction, non-fiction and periodicals. 

To celebrate their sponsorship of HWX, they are offering our listeners one free audiobook of their choice.  Just redirect your browswer to www.audiblepodcast.com/powerline and sign up for a free 30 day trial, and let the easy reading with your ears begin. 
I’ve got my eyes on two candidates available at Audible, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter and What Really Happened:  John Edwards, Our Daughter, and Me by Margaret Thatcher by Rielle Hunter.

We hope you enjoy the show and we hope you enjoy a free book, and as always, comments are most welcome over on Ricochet.
