Was Rush Limbaugh's apology to Georgetown student Sandra Fluke (whom he referred to as a "slut&quot sincere? Is climate change going to doom the planet? Are kids in a hyper-competitive environment in schools that encourage high performance on standardized tests over creativity and real learning? Comedian Jimmy Dore leads this week's panel on The Point with Christopher Ryan, Ph.D (co-author of 'Sex At Dawn'), Boise Thomas (actor, tv host, activist), and Ana Kasparian (co-host of The Young Turks and TYT University). The 'points' are from Amanda Marcotte (blogger, pandagon.net), and Joseph Romm (climate expert at ThinkProgress). Finally, the trailer for the film 'Race To Nowhere' drives the third segment.

1. i liked the vid and the panel was good but they missed the opportunity to relate all to talk radio

the war on contraception and women, the lack of action on global warming, and the decline of education and emphasis on testing etc, are all directly related to allowing 1000 plus of our loudest radio stations to continue to pound the country with a well coordinated pro-corpotate think tank-scripted message to benefit the 1% and the GOP.
