This is better than a usual Sunday, since I don’t have to go to work tomorrow. Otherwise, it’s pretty much bidness as usual.
On Press the Meat, Timmy Potatohead should look even uglier than usual this week, as he hosts John Edwards. Then it’s one of the lamest roundtables ever, with David Brody from the Jesus channel, David Broder from whatever fantasy world he lives in these days, the insipid Margaret Carlson, and fellow SU alum, Ted Koppel. Then Jay Barbree takes a look back at Sputnik.
At CBS, Faze the Nation has Charlie Rangel, but it’s all downhill from there, as the other guests include some Florida wingnut congressman named Adam Putnam, asshole Tony Perkins (not the good one), from the “Family Research Council,” and Roger Simon of the ever-incorrect Politico.com.
On Fux News Sunday, Weaselface Wallace has Nancy Pelosi, on to talk about what the Democrats will cave in to Bush on next, and Hillary’s Campaign Manager, Patti Solis Doyle. Plus the usual Fux News meatheads, including Bill O’Reilly’s BFF, Juan Williams.
On the Goebbels network, George Snufalufagus has Bill Richardson, and then HHS Secretary Michael Leavitt will be on to tell us why it’s a good thing that Bush hates children, while NJ Gov. Jon Corzine tells us why sick kids without insurance really isn’t a good thing. At the roundtable, it’ll be Katrina vanden Heuvel, surrounded by Jay Carney-Shipman, Claire Shipman-Carney and of course, George :jerk: Will.
At the Crappy News Network, Wolf Blitzer’s Late Emission included some guy named Talibani from Iraq (he’s, like, the “President” or something”), Sudanese Foreign Minister Lam Akol, Bill Clinton’s Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs, Susan Rice, human rights activist John Prendergast, and the one, the only, Mr. Andrea Mitchell himself, Alan Greenspan.
Later, on 60 Minutes, it’s The Boss, interviewed by Scott Pelley. Steve Kroft talks to Interpol’s secretary general, Ron Noble. Lesley Stahl reports on how DNA is being used to trace family ancestry, and Morley Safer does a story on Forrest Bird’s, who invented the respirator.
Enjoy your Sunday.
