White House Press Corps mainstay Helen Thomas blasts Israel and is forced to resign, Obama forgets that BP supposedly no longer stands for British Petroleum, Rod Blagojevich and Joe Geni both run into trouble over their vivid hand gestures, Ethan busts his head open, and the whole world gets excited for some kind of popular sporting event involving balls and feet.

Joe, Roni, Ethan (for a little while), and Alec (for like 10 seconds) fight horrible connection issues to debate the Gaza flotilla raid, the pronunciation of "flotilla," and other flotilla-related things.

Roni and guest contributor Steven Thomas discuss Bill Clinton giving Joe Sestak an offer he can (and did) refuse, Don't Ask Don't Tell's history and future, Obama cleaning up the BP spill by himself, and the obligatory (and news-worthy) DPRK story.

Iran sidesteps the UN's permanent 5 with a new nuclear exchange deal, North Korea torpedoes its relations with its neighbor, Rand Paul shocks the world by being an actual libertarian, and Hezbollah spies on the US via the beauty pageant circuit.
