Hard to believe it’s been three years already. My, how time flies. It seems like just yesterday that our glorious leader looked sternly into the camera, and blinked his way through a pack of lies about how we “tried” diplomacy, and telling Saddam and his boys they had 48 hours to get out of Dodge. And then of course we blew up a reataurant with a cruise missle, in hopes that Saddam would be there. Oops. Sucks to be an Iraqi restaurateur, I guess. Anyway, one exhilarating flight deck victory landing, a couple thousand US Soldiers, a hundred thousand or so Iraqis, and a trillion dollars (and counting, at the rate of $200 million a day) later, here we are. Happy Anniversary Iraq!

To celebrate, on Press the Meat, Timmy Potatohead has General George Casey, Commander of the “Multi-National Force” (don’t forget Poland, damnit!) in Iraq. Maybe Timmuh will ask him how many more photo-op “missions” we need to have before we can declare victory, pack it in, and get the hell out. As they put it on their website, “and for the Democrats, Rep. John Murtha (D-PA), a 37-year Marine Corps veteran and Ranking Member of the Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense, will join us in an exclusive interview to talk about his views on the war and his plan to redeploy American troops from the region. ” Ah, so it’s the Democrats on one side, and the Military on the other. Nice.

Over on Fazed the Nation, Bushbuddy Boy Scheiffer has a special treat for us all. Yes, it’s an exclusive live interview with Darth Vader himself, deadeye Dick Cheney. The airwaves should literally drip with truthiness.

Iraqipalooza continues over on This Weak with George Snufalufagus, as Senators Chuck Hagel, R-Neb., and Jack Reed, D-R.I. come on to tell us what, exactly, constitutes success in Iraq and can we get the hell out already? Then Olympic speed skater Joey Cheek (not the black one) will be on to tak about his advocation for relief efforts in Darfur, and, on the rountable, the axis of drivel is reunited again, as George :jerk:Will, Cokie “Skeletor” Roberts, and Sam :omg: Donaldson are together again to talk about how censuring the president is a win for the Republicans, and never mind the fact that 67% of those asked to provide a one-word description of George W. Bush in the latest Pew Poll chose either, “Incompetent,” “Idiot,” or “Liar.”

Over on Fux News Sunday, Chris “Kiwi Black” Wallace has Dick Durbin on to talk about Russ Feingold, the latest updat on glorious Operation Smarmer, and – gasp! – apparently there’s some sort of controversy with the preznit’s medicare prescription drug program.

Later, on 60 Minutes, Steve Kroft talks to a bunch of kids all fathered by the same incessant sperm donator, Scott Pelley talks to the head of NASA’s Climate Study Institute about how the Bush Administration is muzzling him on Global Warming (and politicians are rewriting the science), ad Ed Bradley talks to NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly, who has formed his own 1,000-member counterterrorism unit (and, lucky for you NY’ers, he’s lef the Bushies out of it).

I have no idea what CNN has scheduled, but odds are it’ll be highlight reels of the Iraq invasion, and maybe some updated DOD photos from Operation Smarmer. Just don’t start watching too close to 9:00 EST, because you don’t want to fall asleep before we find out what happens with Tony on the Sporanos.
