Ankarlo Mornings 8-30-07

Thursday, August 30, 2007:  The conversation about Senator Larry Craig continues on this edition of Ankarlo Mornings.  The more Darrell reads about the story, the more he wonders if we should cut the guy some slack.  At 9, Darrell reacts to a story on the NBC Nightly News.  According to the story, most Russians under the age of 30 view America as the enemy.  There is a new nationalism taking root in Mother Russia, while the opposite is happening here in the States.  Our kids are being taught that those brilliant Founding Fathers were nothing but slave owners, that we killed the Native Americans and we stole the desert southwest from Mexico.  Are we in the middle of the fall of America?  At 10, Darrell explores NAFTA for a little while as Mexican trucks will start coming into the US as of Saturday to deliver goods.  What kind of goods will be in the back of the uninspected trucks though?  The Chairman of the Arizona Republican Party, Randy Pullen joins Darrell after that to talk about John McCain and the primary system.  And in the final hour, it’s time to focus on our nation’s schools.  An eighth grade student was suspended for drawing a picture of a gun.  The Director of Public Relations for the Florence Unified School District tells us more.
