Description: Michael A. Smerconish, nationally syndicated radio talk show host, columnist, author, and all-around lightning rod of controversy and spirited discussion, is back! In Morning Drive, he displays the same no-nonsense candor he did in his two best-selling books, covering the gamut of his trademark straight talk on hot-button issues on the minds of Americans today, from government spending and taxes to torture and fighting terrorism, from immigration to gay marriage and global warming.
