359: First Buddy
Obama Thanksgiving Address and Mutual Responsibility Rhetoric
President Obama's holiday address is critiqued for its emphasis on "mutual responsibility" and the concept of being "one's brother's keeper." The hosts mock the contrast between the First Family watching football and the call for citizens to serve in soup kitchens. They further deconstruct the President's attempt to link the holiday's history of hardship to current political gridlock and legislative goals in Washington.
