Cohen -v- Finkelstein

Last night, I was privileged to be able to see firsthand a classic, political debate. I was in the studio for the taping of Mark Finkelstein's next show with special guest, Jeff Cohen. It was one of the best debates I've ever seen, including ones I've participated in myself. It was the libertarian against the conservative. The left against the right. It was an hour of discussion that included blogs and political philosophy and the role of government, and at some points became very heated. Mr. Finkelstein was by far the most animated of the two, while Mr. Cohen was rather subdued throughout the whole thing. I was texting my dad through the majority of the debate, telling him the arguments from both sides. My dad enjoys politics and he wanted to know what each side was bringing to the argument. And even though I didn't agree with everything being said, sometimes from both sides, it was really cool to be able to be there!
