On September 10 our own Amy Siskind was the guest on Tommy Christopher’s Unusable Signal on BlogTalkRadio.

Amy talked with co-hosts Tommy Christopher and Tom Fitzsimmons about the founding of The New Agenda and explained the group’s non-partisan mission and goals.

We’ve excerpted a few snippets from the hour-long interview to share here:

  • Amy on the founding of The New Agenda (47 seconds)
  • Amy on The New Agenda as a non-partisan “big tent” (56 seconds)
  • Amy on The New Agenda as a watchdog for women candidates (50 seconds)

    I think one can be ‘poor’ and vote Republican if one thinks the primary response to terrorism should be military and not jurisprudence, economics and diplomacy. One can vote Republican if she/he thinks gun owners should be strictly held accountable for their actions and there should be harsh consequences for all forms of illegal gun violence and useage, rather than not holding people accountable by banning gun ownership.

    Obama lacks political will to crack down on Wall street crooks. Be sure to read the comments.

    Yes, but making women appear incapable of helping themselves is only half of it. It’s also talking about DECADES of Obama helping… o.O

    I am appalled at that ad. Does Obama seriously think he can appeal to women by showing us we are not capable of helping ourselves??

    Does anyone honestly believe Obama’s “Julia” story equals liberation for women? http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=51265

    Strange, Romney’s Mormon family not polygamist BUT Obama’s father was polygamist. I didn’t realize!
