Yesterday’s thread was getting a bit long, so I figured we might as well have a new thread for today. What the hell – it’s Orthodox Christmas. ? ?????????? ?????????!
Coming up on today’s talking head shows:
On NBC’s Press the Meat, Timmy the Potatohead (why don’t they dump this asshole and put Olbermann on instead) has NY Times reporter James Risen, who broke the story about the illegal Bush domestic spying plot, Chucky Schumer and John Cornyn are scheduled to talk about Jack Abramoff’s plea deal, as well as tell us how Scalito will get asked lots of real tough questions this week, before the Democrats give him a pass so they don’t look like a bunch of meanies, and a cat fight between Kate Michelman and nutsy-cuckoo Kate O’Beirne over abortion rights.
It’s more Scalito and Abramoff on CBS’s Face the Nation, as Bob Schieffer has Arlen Specter and fellow deadhead Pat (not the Jets old kicker) Leahy, plus somebody named Jan Crawford Greenburg, who’s billed as a Legal Analyst from the Chicago Tribune.
Over on ABC it’s – you guessed it – more Scalito and Abramoff on This Week with George Snuffalufagus as Teddy Kennedy and Sam Brownback Mountain join the Rumptable Regulars: douchebag George Will, snotty bitch Cookie Roberts, Fareed “Token” Zakaria and asshole David Brooks.
Fox News Sunday Morning will put its unique spin on Scalito, Abramoff, and Spying on US Citizens, with Lindsey Graham, Dianne Feinstein, and Jane Harman. Bush apologist Charles Krauthammer will lick some Bush ass, Mara Liasson and Juan Williams will provide the faux liberal, NPR’ish side of things, and everybody’s favorite whacko Bill Kristol of the Moonie Times will be there, too. And, if we’re lucky, maybe little snotface Chris Wallace will call his dad a traitor and crazy old fucker with Alzheimer’s again.
CNN’s Sunday Morning has, oh hell, who really gives a shit what CNN has on anymore?
60 Minutes has NYPD detective (and alleged mafia hitman) Stephen Caracappa, plus the new Sony CEO (whoppdie doo) and – in some earth-shattering news reporting, a story on “unorthodox, some would say unsafe, U.S. skiing sensation Bode Miller….” :yawn:
On the bright side, it’s all-new episodes of The Simpsons, Family Guy, and American Dad.
