Today, on the Ed Morrissey Show (3 pm ET), we have a great show in store for you! Los Angeles Times reporter and blogger Andrew Malcolm joins us for the first hour to talk about politics and the media, and we’ll be certain to discuss the op-ed of John Brennan today. In bonus time, Marco Rubio joins us to talk about his Stimulus Bomb fundraiser and his rapid ascension to the front-runner position!

Now you can join the conversation in the chat room! Be sure to register at Ustream to participate in our raucous live-chat sessions.

Jazz Shaw of The Moderate Voice and The Monster moderate the chat, and they have Troll Gun Trivia Contest running before the show, for those who get there early — and are registered!
