Also up for discussion are an array of topics from the Republican Tea Party token Mayor Mia Love to the outrageous assertions of Todd Akin and his gang of conservative cronies. Who is Mayor Mia Love and how can she possibly explain her allegiance to Mitt Romney & associates.

And let's not forget Todd Akins and Paul Ryan who seem believe that a woman will not get pregnant if they are "legitimately raped". Mr. Ryan, Mr. Akin, Mr. Mittens, and their conservative Christian backers should probably talk to actual rape victims instead of sharing old wives tales and passing it off as scientifice evidence. But I suspect they would rather hear from the victims male representative...IJS Join us tonight - Danta, Darla, Rome, Sharra and Deja at 7pm by calling 646-649-0102.
