Moammar Gaddafi's 42-year reign as dictator in Libya was brought to an end by a combination of civilian uprising and limited military support from a coalition of allied forces including the United States. But with Gaddafi gone the country is now facing an era of uncertainty with no clear leader and no clear way forward. Sam Seder discusses the situation in Libya and some possible challenges we could see in the near future, with Steve Clemons, Washington editor at large for The Atlantic.

Papantonio: Bachmann's Warped Worldview
Total duration 15 minutes:
Papantonio: Bachmann's Warped Worldview
The presidential candidacies of Rick Perry and Michelle Bachmann have already proved one thing about the 2012 election -- the religious right is going to once again play a massive role in electing Republicans. Both Perry and Bachmann have developed their worldviews based on the Re-Constructionist movement within the religious right, a movement that believes in a strict, literal interpretation of the Bible. Mike Papantonio talks about how dangerous the religious right will be in 2012 with Frank Schaeffer, author of the new book "Sex, Mom, and God: How the Bible's Strange Take on Sex Led to Crazy Politics--and How I Learned to Love Women [[and Jesus) Anyway."

Papantonio: Blockbuster Diabetes Drug Linked to Bladder Cancer
When a politician gets caught blatantly lying to the American public, it can severely damage their career. But when corporations do the same thing, they just continue with business as usual and the public barely pays attention. This is the case with Takeda Pharmaceuticals who have lied to the American public about the dangers of their blockbuster diabetes drug Actos. Mike Papantonio recently discussed the issue with Chris Paulos, one of the attorneys who is working to hold Takeda accountable for their negligence.

Papantonio: The "I Hate Everything" Tea Party is Dangerous

Papantonio: Trade Deals Are Killing American Jobs
One of the worst acts of compromise perpetrated by Bill Clinton was the enactment of the North American Free Trade Agreement -- NAFTA. This trade deal allowed American companies to move good-paying American jobs out of the country in order to pay slave wages to workers in other countries. Since then the jobs situation in America has been going steadily downhill. And it doesn't look like President Obama is going to do anything to reverse things like NAFTA or CAFTA. Mike Papantonio recently spoke with investigative journalist Daniel Denvir about why Obama wants to continue these programs.

Papantonio: The Class War That Needs To Happen
If you've listened to any conservative media outlets in the last few weeks, you've probably heard them talking about class warfare. But they aren't talking about the poor or middle class -- they're talking about the alleged class warfare being waged against millionaires and billionaires. While this kind of rhetoric isn't winning over the millions of Americans who are out of work, it HAS given Democrats the upper hand in the battle for 2012. By focusing on preserving the American system of social safety nets, Democrats can once again be victorious in national elections.

Papantonio: How To Restore Manufacturing Jobs in America
America has been shedding manufacturing jobs for years. These jobs now make up a smaller share of our economy than at any time since the United States entered World War Two. And their decline has accelerated in recent years, which has correlated to stagnant wages and declining job benefits. Mike Papantonio talks about how we can bring these decent-paying jobs back to America with Joshua Holland, a senior writer at Alternet.

Papantonio: Commodity Prices Linked to Civil Unrest
A provocative new study suggests the timing of the Arab uprisings is linked to global food price spikes and that prices will soon permanently be above the level which sparks conflicts. The UN actually has a formula that tells them when people will become angry enough to protest over the price of commodities. And the US Federal Reserve seems to be hell bent on pushing those prices to the breaking point in America.- Amped Status

… there is a specific food price level above which riots and unrest become far more likely. That figure is 210 on the UN FAO’s price index: the index is currently at 234, due to the most recent spike in prices which started in the middle of 2010 [coinciding with QE2].

Papantonio: Populist Uprisings Needed in America
This year's populist uprising in places like Wisconsin have sent shock waves through the corporate Republican ranks -- scaring powerful players like the Koch Brothers, the Heritage Foundation, and the Chamber of Commerce. These big money groups realized that they can't keep stepping on American workers to get what they want and that concept scares the hell out of them. And there's no reason that this populist uprising should be limited to Wisconsin.

Papantonio: Climate Change Leads to Massive Food Shortages
If you've seen Al Gore's film An Inconvenient Truth then you're probably familiar with the concept of global unrest spurred on by climate change. In his film he talked about these issues as being something that could happen in the future but as we're seeing around the world today, these events are already happening. As climate change is making access to resources more and more scarce, people around the globe are becoming scared and sometimes violent. Mike Papantonio talks about how this is happening and what we can do, with Christian Parenti, author of the new book "Tropic of Chaos: climate Change and the New Geography of Violence."

Papantonio: Tea Party Still Driven By Racism
The tea party claims that they are a group of average citizens who just happen to oppose a lot of President Obama's policies. They want us to believe that they are a diverse mix of people who were just fed up with the federal government. But their claims hold no truth -- they are mostly a mix of old, white, angry people who are upset that a black man lives in the White House.

Papantonio: Time for Democrats To Fight Back
A few weeks ago Democrats lost two House seats in special elections that should have been a lock for the Democratic Party. These losses, along with the falling approval rate of President Obama, show that the Party desperately needs to reshape their message before the 2012 elections. Mike Papantonio talks about how to reset the Democratic Party with John Nichols, Washington correspondent for The Nation magazine.

Papantonio: No-Tax, No-Regulation Tea Partiers Are Killing America
The system of maintaining America's infrastructure in the last eight years has been referred to as "patch and pray." The no-regulation, no-tax approach to government was unleashed on all of us in 2000. It was as if a giant clown car pulled up to a curb somewhere in our nation's capital and unloaded a gaggle of politicos who had no real understanding about why tax revenues matter. They called themselves fiscal conservatives. Today they call themselves teabaggers.
