The Senate blocked another component of the President’s jobs package yesterday: funds for teachers and other public sector workers. GOP candidates took off the gloves in Las Vegas to attack each other in their latest debate. With a Thanksgiving deadline looming, members of the Congressional deficit reduction “supercommittee" met with the “gang of six” behind closed doors. Monthly reports showed the housing market stuck in a rut. And some Fed officials are making a case for another round of mortgage-backed securities purchasing. A panel of journalists joins Diane for the domestic hour of the Friday News Roundup

Of course to someone on the extreme left (gbloper), everyone on this show is a conservative. And to someone on the extreme right (Marcus), everyone's a liberal."

While you are correct that gbloper is oblivious to the NPR and "The McLaughlin Group" folks who are self-identified liberals, I have no problem identifying the conservatives on NPR and "The McLaughlin Group."
But I could use your special skills to help me identify any NPR show that is hosted by a conservative. Take all the time you require.
