They're discussing Carter and the Iranian hostages.

1. i liked how they had andy card on to whitewash the bush bs during his part
of the thing. after he started trying to gloss over the wiretapping bs i had to turn it. i just couldn't listen to it. especially after that whistleblower's statements on countdown.

2. I have been trying to watch the episodes for the last few days.
While I have learned a lot, it seems like it might be slightly biased towards republicans. Every liberal or democrat they have profiled has had some major negative or seemed diminished in some way. Still worth seeing, just not sure if it is unbiased.

3. They took a break from covering 2012, Nostradamus, Nazi occult, and Bigfoot?
That's a shock. I refer to the History Channel as the Ooga-Booga Channel now.

7. LOL!
Maybe it was let a Senator do our programming week and it was John McCain's turn?

8. I think it's "seasonal" their programming to coincide with major points in US history.
Right around June and December, they tend to air a lot of WWII things.

Around July 4, they do Revolutionary War stuff.

And so on...
