Saturdays at 3 o’clock Eastern, rebroadcasts Sunday nights at 8 pm Eastern
This week on Ring of Fire, Tim Dickinson from Rolling Stone magazine will be here to tell us how the GOP is planning to take over congress in November, not by offering up any meaningful reforms, but by making sure that President Obama fails in everything he attempts.
We’ll also talk with Dr. Boyd Haley from the University of Kentucky, who has some breaking health news that everyone needs to know about.
We’ll also be talking with Senator Maria Cantwell about her efforts to help curb carbon gas emissions, and she’ll give us the inside scoop on what’s really going on with healthcare legislation in the Senate.
And we’ll check back in with comedian Matt Filipowicz who’s got some interesting thoughts on Liz Cheney and her modern day McCarthyism.

G writes: “You have my total empathy, Mara. I feel that way in life with people at both home and at work. If there was such a thing as reincarnation, I would do it differently because I would learn my lesson from my previous life.”
I woke from a dream, once, that I had been, in some previous life, forcibly buried alive. I could feel myself screaming in horror, in the dream. Well, horror – that is a bit of an understatement.
Anyway, this voice spoke through the dream and said: “You left that lifetime with a great feeling of defeat and despair, knowing that you could never get out of your circumstances of cruelty. That is why you come into this lifetime with such despair.”
Now, maybe that’s all a load of sh*t. It probably is. Maybe my mind used, symbolically, the notion of reincarnation, to explain something to myself.
At any rate, how many people are imprisoned in “coffins”, like I was, in the dream, screaming to get out?
And how many people are happy to be inside, and trying to lock others away, with them?
It’s good to rigorously question Everything, I think. But, as a “true believer” (we all have this side, I think), it’s very painful and resistance and pain is typical. Conviction is admirable, but only if one can also question it, from time to time.
