This Week's Topics:
--British science fiction author Richard K. Morgan joins us to talk about the ideas and politics in his book, and he also discusses the election of Barack Obama and a bunch of other stuff.
--Tons of snow, and many in the media say there must not be global warming since we had so many snowstorms last week.
--Politics and Facebook.
--Barack Obama wants Rick Warren to pray at his inauguration, and it seems like a horrible idea, especially to anybody concerned with gay rights, as Obama claims to be.
--The US refuses to back a measure to decriminalize being gay.
--Obama is the increasingly irrelevant Time Magazine Man of the Year, but the more interesting thing is that conservatives claim it's because of liberal bias, even though many president-elects have won in the past.
--We hear some comments from George W. Bush about what he will miss the most once he is no longer President.
--Governor Rod Blagojevich says he's completely innocent of all charges, even though so much concerte evidence points the other way.
--The media frenzy about Rahm Emmanuel's supposed contact with Barack Obama, even though the news originally came from a gossip column.
--Will Obama get a new health care proposal through the House and Senate, and will Tom Daschle have anything to do with it?
--Joe Biden talks about wanting to be more like Al Gore than Dick Cheney.
--Strange comments about Barack Obama planning to use his middle name during the January inauguration.
--John McCain refuses to pledge support for Sarah Palin for President in 2012.
