The Feral Cats of Freedom cough up hair balls of truth each week from the crap we've digested throughout the week from the Fat Cat News, bloviators of blather, the weasel wunderkind of Washington, and stupid goobers with misspelled signs.  This week we discuss the President's health care address to Congress, the latest Wall Street scam in "death bonds", and is capitalism dead?  Who is the next bunch to be sacrificed to the gods of money?

Local Montanans weigh in on the way of the world with your hosts Diane Kamp and Dave Zollinger; the rancher and the trucker.

Dr. Bob Putsch joins the Montana Maven and Deadrock Dave On Democracy's Edge Talk Radio in Bozeman, Montana.  Dr. Bob answers questions about what a single payer health care plan means.  A great humanitarian, scholar, and speaker, he makes it plain and we are proud that he is a Montanan.

Dr. Arjun Makhijani joins the hosts of Democracy's Edge. 
Dr. Makhijani got his Ph.D. at Berkley and now works in Takoma Park, Maryland at the Institute for Energy and Environmental Reseaarch of which he is president.

A recognized authority on energy issues and nuclear issues in particular, Dr. Makhijani is the author and co-author of numerous reports and books on topics such as nuclear defense systems, radioactive waste storage and disposal, nuclear testing, disposition of fissile materials, energy efficiency, and ozone depletion.  He is the principal editor of Nuclear Wastelands: a Global Guide to Nuclear Weapons Production and Its Health and Environmental Effects, published by MIT Press in July 1995, and subsequently nominated for a Pulitzer Prize.


The banksters succeeded in bringing misery to the whole world without using any nukes.  But just in case the crony capitalists and globalists don’t do us  in completely,  maybe we ought to pay a little more attention to the real thing; nuclear weapons, nuclear waste, and nukes in space.  After all look what happened when we weren’t watching the bond traders and bucket shop bozos?  Should we worry or Should we stop worrying and learn to once more love the bomb? And since we’re broke, what is this costing us?

Hosts Diane Kamp and Dave Zollinger cough up fur balls of truth each week from the baloney digested throughuot the week from the Fat Cat News.

Stephen Zarlenga of the American Monetary Institute at monetary .org is the author of "The Lost Science of Money".  Stephen and his colleagues are dedicated to de-mystifying money because  “If it had to be summarized in one sentence it is that by misdefining the nature of money, special interests have often been able to control a society’s monetary system, and in turn, the society itself.”

The Teamster and the Rancher, Dave and Di, ask Zarlenga about the details of the "American Monetary Act" that they have proposed.   Should we incorporate the Federal Reserve into the Treasury?  And they ask him to explain the difference between banking and money. And should there be such thing as a moral economy or moral and just money?

The Feral Cats of Freedom on Democracy's Edge Talk Radio are searching for new ideas to either fix or replace or political and economic system.  What do you think of Zarlenga's ideas?

 Democracy's Edge Independent Alternative Talk Radio discusses how the government can speed the recovery of the economy.  Caller "Robert", a small business man has his ideas.  Lady Di calls him the anti-Thain.  John Thain is the latest not so whiz kid of Wall Street that got caught on his $35,000 commode taking a dump on all of us.  He took bailout money and gave 8 billion in bonuses to his "top managers" aka "made men".

Each week for three hours the Feral Cats of Freedom cough up fur balls of truth from the baloney they've digested throughout the week from the Fat Cat News.  Join them online at kmmsam.com to whack through the misinformation from the Corporate media. 

In the 2nd Hour, Diane and Dave interviewed Hedy Epstein.  She talked about what life is like for Palestinians.  She talked about the terrible weapons used in the latest Israel attacks.   Regular caller "Vinnie" tells us what these new weapons used in Gaza are.  Frightening stuff.  He is followed by our Elizabeth Darrow, activist, Art Historian and "Dr. Doom."
We here from other callers in the 2nd half hour.

Democracy's Edge Talk Radio welcomes Hedy Epstein for a talk with co-hosts Diane Kamp and Dave Zollinger.  Hedy is a holocaust survivor and lifelong human rights, peace, and social justice activist.

Rick Perlstein, journalist and author of "Nixonland:  The Rise of a President and the Fracturing of America" joins Diane and Dave on Democracy's Edge Talk Radio to talk about from where this divide in American politics came.

Perlstein takes us through the chaotic and turbulent period in America from 1964 to 1972.  He chronicles the stories of ordinary Americans and also Richard Nixon and his climb to power through the polarization of the voters.

Brillliant investigative journalism and superb insight are hallmarks of Perlstein's books.

The Feral Cats of Freedom interview Stephen Zarlenga of the American Monetary Institute.  Stephen Zarlenga draws on 35 years of experience in the world of finance, securities, insurance, mutual funds, real estate, and futures trading. He has published 20 books on money, banking, politics and philosophy.

Stephen and his colleagues are dedicated to de-mystifying money because
“If it had to be summarized in one sentence it is that by mis-defining the nature of money, special interests have often been able to control a society’s monetary system, and in turn, the society itself.”

So money started out being a way to exchange goods.  And problems arose when people just wanted to make money from money?  Is that one of the problems?  Usury?  Interest?  Making money from derivatives or paper and not making money from investing in a cure for cancer?  

Should there be such thing as a moral economy or moral and just money?
Should we start by putting the Fed to bed?

This is a short clip for the blogs from the Feral Cats Interview with Harvey Wasserman.  We discuss the real possibility of a Solaropia by 2030 if we just stop taking our marching orders from King CONG (coal, oil, nukes, gas). This short clip is where I ask Harvey about the Presidential candidates  and their policies on nuclear energy and alternative energy sources and a little bit on what Germany is doing.

Part One of the Feral Cats of Freedom's interview with author and activist Harvey Wasserman.  Wasserman's new book is Solartopia:  Our Green Powered Earth A.D. 2030.  Always provocative and never dull, this witty and smart activist and author bedazzles the ferals on their weekly talk radio show, Citizens' Voice.  Join Lady Di, Deadrock Dave and Captain B as they find out why the heck we are so far behind in creating a totally solartopia.

Each week the Feral Cats of Freedom on Citizens'Voice Talk Radio cough up hairballs of truth from the baloney we've digested each week from the Fat Cat News.  This week Harvey Wasserman, the activist and author, joins them to talk about the possibility of a "Solartopia: A Green Powered Earth, A.D. 2030 which is also the title of his new book.  Wasserman is sharp and funny and always provocative.  This is no dull interview.  He makes fighting King CONG (coal, oil, nukes and gas) fun and invigorating.  Makes you want to get arrested with him as he protests at nuclear power plants.  This is part two of a 40 minute interview with callers.
