What was that we were saying about Red Meat Wednesdays on The Independents? Tonight on Fox Business Network at 9 pm ET, 6 pm PT (with repeats three hours later), you can see the one & only P.J. O'Rourke talk about his new book, Baby Boom: How it Got That Way (and it Wasn't My Fault) (and I'll Never Do it Again). Speaking of funny people, here's last night's panelists Michael C. Moynihan and Gavin McInnes playing a game called Trump vs. Nugent:

Also on tonight's show, Fox News Senior Judicial Analyst and Reason.com columnist Andrew Napolitano will talk about news that National Security Agency Director Gen. Keith Alexander is looking to criminalize journalistic publication of national security leaks, and whether that means we should be rooting for a federal shield law. Funnymen Jim Norton and Michael Ian Black will speed through a number of contested topics—former IRS official Lois Lerner's non-testimony in front of Congress today, Diet Coke's "You're on Coke" advertising campaign, the Government Accountability Office's report that Michelle Obama's healthy school-lunch initiative is making kids gag, a would-be Alabama congressman's shameful-or-awesome past as a maker of toilet-cam political vids (you can view an example here), and the latest idiotic vaping ban in Los Angeles.

Other topics may include the Duke porn actress who came out today, China's increasing military budget, Chipotle's mixed messages on whether climate change will drive guacamole off the menu, and the 10-year-old kid suspend from school for making finger-guns.
