Cynematic and Donna Schwartz Mills will be joined this week by MOMocrats Jaelithe Judy and Julie Pippert. And what a week it's been: Protest is in the air, from the Middle East on to Madison Wisconsin. A GOP majority voted in to create jobs instead seems to be using economic crisis as an excuse to bust unions. Worse is a return to the old culture wars, with a renewed focus on women's issues. Special guest Kelsey Collier-Wise of DakotaWomen.com will be on hand to talk about last week's jaw-dropping "Shoot the Doc" bill, and what's on the docket next in South Dakota.

This week's episode might be subtitled "Still Waiting for Superman" - or "Lex Luthor, Big Man On Campus." MOMocrats Cynthia Liu and Donna Schwartz Mills talk extensively with special guest Leonie Haimson, longtime New York City education activist and organizer of grassroots group Parents Across America. Talk was of schools (in New York and elsewhere), class sizes, Cathie Black, Michelle Rhee, budget cuts and why Bill Gates and Michael Bloomberg DON'T have all the answers.
