On Press the Meat, Timmy Potatohead boasts an “exclusive†with right-wing nut Chuck “I’ll talk tough about Iraq, but I won’t fucking do anything†Hagel. Then it’s one of the many assholes from the NY Times, David Brooks, plus WaPost hack Anne Kornblut , Todd Purdum (schmuck from Vanity Fair, who – ironically – seems obsessed with John Edwards haircut), and Eugene Robinson (also from the WaPost). If, for some reason, you actually want to watch this crap, you’ll have to get up early (at least on the east coast), thanks to Wimbledon.
Over at CBS, Bush buddy Bobby Schieffer hosts one of my Senators, Chucky Schumer, plus Utah’s Orrin “Big Love†Hatch, David Yepsen from the Des Moines Register, Vaughn “with a name like this, I shoulda been a sportscaster†Ververs, and Jeanne Cummings of the perpetually wrong Politico.com.
On Fux News Sunday, Weaselface Wallace hosts Congress critters Chris Van Hollen and Chris Cannon, on to talk about dubya’s glorious, Solomon-like act of clemency in keeping Scooter of jail. Plus, are we about to face another horrible terrorist attack? When in doubt, ask a fucking Republican – in this case, Pete “Hokie†Hoekstra.
On the Goebbels network, it’s John Conyers, on to talk about Scootergate, and then George Snufalufagus hits the trail with Ron “Don’t call me Les†Paul, and Mike Gravel . Then, at the roundtable, it’s Fareed “Token†Zakaria, Kevin’s future wife, Katrina vanden Heuvel, and weaselly little asshole from the National Review, Rich Lowry. Then Nicholas Kristof talks about some contest he sponsors.
About the only thing that looks interesting on Wolf Blitzer’s Late Emission is Pat Leahy. Otherwise, it looks like the usual collection of CNN hacks, Republicans, and a token Iraqi or two.
Later, on 60 Minutes, Steve Kroft talks to U.S. Comptroller General David Walker, in an attempt to scare us about the Medicare program, and then Scott Pelley tells us how tigers are damn near gone from the jungles of India. Plus, Lesley Stahl does a story on the wonderful foster-care system in this country.
Well, I better get cracking and bottle myself some beer. Enjoy your Sunday.
