Segment 1: Why does America have so many people incarcerated?  And why do we call them “correctional” facilities? Is America’s prison system just one massive form of payback, retribution and revenge, under the guise of justice?

Segment 2: Conservatives have a neat little thing going with their cries of liberal bias in the media. No matter what the mainstream media does, it’s biased, according to conservatives.

Segment 3: Republicans’ “smooth evasion” when it comes to popular and successful government programs like Social Security and Medicare.
