Despite the fact that most folks seem to realize that the Swine Flu isn’t the Apocalypse (are Americans finally beginning to see the light, and quit being manipulated by the media’s bullshit?), Press the Meat will try and drum up the fear, with HHS Sec. Kathleen Sebelius, DHS Sec. Janet Napolitano, and CDC Acting Dir. Dr. Richard Besser. Then, just how fucked is the Republican Party? Arlen Specter will be on to speculate, and former RNC chair Ed Gillespie comes out of his closet to chat with Mornin’ Joe Scarborough.
While Gillespie and Scarborough stroke each other, Specter, Sebelius, Besser, and Napolitano all jump in a cab and head over to CBS to appear on Faze the Nation.
Keep the meter running, cabbie, ‘cuz Napolitano, Sebelius and Besser will need it to head over to Fux News Sunday and chat with Weaselface Wallace. Specter, of course, is persona non grata at Fux News, so Majority Whip Dick Durbin and Republican Policy Committee Chairman John Ensign will be on to talk about him. Along with the usual Fuxheads, Power Player of the Week Chris Buckley will be on to hopefully tell the Weasel how ashamed his father would be of the Republicans, if he were around today.
Over on the Goebbels network, Pat Leahy and Orrin Hatch talk SCOTUS with George Snufalufagus, until the trio of Napolitano, Sebelius and Besser hit the scene. Then it’s a roundtable of pinhead emeritus George :jerk: Will, Paul Krugman, PBS’s Gwen Ifill, and the WSJ hack Gerald Seib.
Later, on 60 Minutes, Ecuadorians are suing Chevron because oil drilling in the Amazon jungle by Texaco polluted their fragile environment, Saudi Arabia says it’s attempting re-educate Osama bin Laden’s followers, and Morley Safer reports on the Antinori family, who have been in the wine business for 600 years.
Have a good Sunday, everybody.
