On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show: Mark plays audio from Milton Friedman that explains the beauty of the free market and how the state is attacking the individual's sovereignty, freedom and ability to create wealth and own private property. There is no paradise on Earth, despite what the liberals would have you believe. This is a line between liberty and totalitarianism where the Executive is refusing to follow the boundaries of the Constitution placed upon him. Mark also talks about minimum wage and how this actually holds back qualified workers and hurts businesses as well. Finally, the House voted to take over 100 positions from being confirmed by the Senate – thus giving more power to the Executive. Mark says there should be more people appointed by the Senate, not less – just look at all the czars Obama has appointed by himself.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show: Dick Cheney comments on Sarah Palin saying she wasn't Vice Presidential material. What is the criteria for being President of VP – and hasn't Obama lowered it by being elected? Also, the Republican Establishment got their nominee in Romney, but they can't win the election without the conservative vote as well so they need to really take that into account when choosing VP. Mark also brings up the debate about the Voter participation center and how we should have a voter ID card. Mitt Romney is in Israel and says that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, a position that the Obama Administration refuses to say. Finally, Ted Cruz calls in to talk about the Texas Senate runoff vote Tuesday.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show: The Middle East would look a lot worse, if President Obama gets a 2nd term, than it does now. Jay Carney won't even acknowledge that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel. Our major ally in the world is Israel and our government won't even mention what their capital is. Why do Jewish people continue to vote for Democrats or for Obama when we know that he doesn't like Israel because if he did he wouldn't act the way he is. His foreign policy is not beneficial to Israel whatsoever. Also, the new term for illegal immigrants is being a "Dreamer," and that if you're a dreamer you can get away with almost anything. Finally, Michael Walsh calls in regarding his new book, The People v. The Democratic Party.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show: Mark talks about the attack on the fast food chain Chick-fil-A because of its President’s opposition to gay marriage. Mayor Menino of Boston is trying to stop the chain from open a store, which will create jobs, because he disagrees with him. It seems private businesses aren't free to practice as they please anymore. Also, Eric Holder is on the attack against those that want voter ID laws and photo IDs because he believes it discriminates. There are organizations that are set up for the sole purpose of trying to figure out ways to illegally vote. Finally, Paul Kengor calls in about his new book, The Communist: Frank Marshall Davis, The Untold Story of Barack Obama's Mentor.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show: All of the Senate Democrats except two voted Wednesday to massively increase taxes on small businesses. No longer are they just going after the millionaires and billionaires, they are now going after the heart of the economy – small business. Meanwhile, we have Republican's that are supporting Democrats in the November election. Conservatives not only have to defeat the liberal media and the Democrat machine in November, but in some instances the RINO's and Republicans that hate conservatism as well. Also, Congresswoman Bachmann is still under attack from Senator John McCain and Speaker Boehner regarding her wanting to look into the Muslim Brotherhood and Washington ties. Finally, Senator Jim DeMint calls in to discuss the lame duck Congress.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show: Gov. Romney gave a great and powerful speech earlier Tuesday to the VFW and we should give him credit for it. He brought attention back to the fact that there have been serious Intel leaks from inside the Administration and there needs to be an investigation about it. Mark asks the callers what President Obama's foreign policy is? Based on his policies and military decisions, it seems like Obama is saying that Israel is the problem in the Middle East. Mark also talks about the philosophy of a civil society and why we need a functioning one in order to let the individual flourish and succeed. Michele Bachmann and her comments on the Muslim Brotherhood are drawing criticism and some Republican's aren't standing up for her including John Boehner and John McCain. Finally, Phyllis Schlafly calls in about her new book, No Higher Power: Obama's War on Religious Freedom.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show: Mark says that they need to go for the death penalty against James Holmes. Mark plays audio from a spokesperson for Arlene Holmes that shows that the allegations that ABC News made that suggested Arlene knew that her son had committed the horrible shooting appear to be wrong. The media once again twisted words to suit a narrative without presenting facts. Mark then talks about the issue of gun control and asks how the government is going to get all the guns from those that have had them? Once again the law abiding citizen gets blamed for something a nut job has done. John Lott calls in and talks about the statistical analysis of gun control and how it doesn't necessarily always work the way people want it to. Mark also talks about Penn State University and the NCAA's decision that punishes the community and the current students that had nothing to do with the terrible things that happened. Finally, Andy McCarthy calls in and discusses the Muslim Brotherhood and what they stand for.

On Friday’s Mark Levin Show: When a horrific shooting occurs, we have many question, but what we shouldn’t do is search for political scapegoats. It’s outrageous that ABC’s Brian Ross and George Stephanopoulos tried to establish a connection between the tea party and the murders at the Colorado movie theatre. No politician or group is to blame for this shooting; it was one nut job with serious problems. Also, a new report from the 2009 Fort Hood shooting faults the FBI for missteps in the case because of political correctness. Finally, Robert Spenser, director of Jihad Watch, calls in to discuss Congresswoman Bachmann calling for an investigation in suspected efforts by the Muslim Brotherhood to infiltrate the federal government.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show: There is now a well circulated ad campaign being given by Mexico with help of some American agencies to give food stamps to illegal immigrants here in America. The amount of money being spent on illegals via the food stamp program has risen to massive levels. It is becoming ridiculous how much corruption and fraud has taken over a well intentioned program. Senator Jeff Sessions calls in and gives more figures on the waste that goes into the food stamp program ever since the standards have changed for those that receive them. What would happen if 12 million of us went to Mexico and demanded rights, healthcare and free school tuition like it is being done here?

On Wednesday’s Mark Levin show: A new poll finds the majority of voters said a presidential VP pick has an impact on their vote. Mark explains that this is the reason Governor Romney must pick a confident conservative; somebody that the tea party is comfortable with. Also, Obama believes no one can be successful on their own, as the government provides us with the roads and bridges to reach that success, but Mark reminds us North Korea has very nice roads and bridges. Those roads are the consequence of a vigorous and thriving people. Mark also presents President Obama with an ultimatum; Romney will produce his tax returns when Obama releases the names of the drug dealers from whom he bought his drugs all those years he was a (self-admitted) dope head. Finally, Ted Cruz, running for Texas Senate, calls in to talk about his opponent David Dewhurst’s’ attacks and lies.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show: Apparently some Republicans and RINOs are more focused on Mitt Romney's tax records than all the unconstitutional things that President Obama has done. We're in a battle for the soul of America – Romney is for liberty, Obama is for tyranny. Romney is finally getting aggressive and attacking Obama the way he should – by taking advantage of all the failures that Obama has done, his inexperienced past and the clueless direction he wants to take the country. Obama was selected during a recession, he promised to fix it, and instead has made it worst; that’s his record.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show: President Obama made comments over the weekend that if you're successful, you didn't do it on your own. He is ridiculing and mocking the American people when he says this. Imagine the possibilities and economic growth we could have if there were less government restrictions and regulations. Also, Mark puts his own Obama twist on Reagan’s 1984 ad “its morning in America.’ And does Obama really love America as a country? One wouldn't keep talking about transforming the country if they liked it the way it was.

On Friday’s Mark Levin show: President Obama keeps bashing Gov. Romney and Bain Capital, but what he is actually doing is bashing capitalism. Romney is now running against the American version of Castro and Chavez; they think and sound alike. Also, Mark explains that Obama and HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius committed another impeachable offense – the administration is trying to gut welfare reform with a quiet policy change. Senator Mitch McConnell calls in and explains how the Democrats are trying to stifle free speech by trying to pass the Disclose act. Finally, Monica Crowley calls in to discuss her new book What the (Bleep) Just Happened?: The Happy Warrior's Guide to the Great American Comeback.

Their main position right now is to do what they can to elect Democrats into office, as well as obstruct voter ID laws. President Obama is trying to turn the country by attacking our traditions and unity. Also, a breaking news story saying that Condoleezza Rice is the front runner as a VP candidate for Mitt Romney. Mark says at first it may seem great, but is she a conservative? With a quick internet search, Mark looks at her record and has two issues that might be potential problems – mildly pro choice and mildly pro affirmative action.

We are unilaterally withdrawing our security perimeters from the border; we don't know who's coming in or what they're doing and this is a serious problem. We're taking away the ability to protect ourselves and if we can see it, why isn't President Obama doing anything to protect us? Why is Obama worried more about giving away entitlements, which we can't afford, than protecting the citizens? Also, Mark talks about Mitt Romney's offshore accounts and says what's the big deal – it's not affecting the country like some of what the Democrats are doing. Finally, Congressman Allen West calls in and discusses the House vote Wednesday to fully repeal Obamacare.

No Republicans are coming out and speaking as clear and succinct as President Reagan did. Also, Mark reads form the Obamacare law so you can see how complicated, difficult and absurd it is. Why are we in the private sector always on defense; the type of fundamental transformation that Obama wants isn't going to fix the country, it's to destroy it.

All the job bills have not worked or produced more jobs, just more debt. Obama is running virtually the same campaign that FDR did – attack the rich, pretend to be for the middle class, massive government programs and spending. After all this, Obama wants us to give him 4 more years. Also, China is building up its transportation infrastructure at a higher rate than America is, and illegal citizens are being given more rights than actual citizens are! Finally, David Limbaugh calls in to discuss Obama’s unemployment numbers. David’s new book is The Great Destroyer.

Axelrod recently said that Romney is worst than Richard Nixon when it comes to secrecy; why hasn't the Obama Administration released documents regarding Fast and Furious? Perhaps the Obama Administration are the ones being secret – we aren't insinuating anything, we just want the facts.
