Just time for a quickie today, what with so much work to do, and so little time.
On Press the Meat, it’s National Security Adviser James Jones, Mikey Bloomberg, Newark Mayor Corey Booker, asshole David Brooks, Erin Burnet, and John Meachem.
Jones makes a trip over to CBS’s Faze the Nation, to be joined by Carl Levin l’il Lindsey Graham.
Jones is a busy man today, as he also heads on over to Fux Nes Sunday with Weaselface Wallace. Also up, dickhead Mitch McConnell, and this week’s fuxheads are Paul Gigot, Mara Liasson, Stephen Hayes, and Ceci Connolly.
On the Goebbels network, it’s Newt Gingrich and Howard Dean, plus a roundtable with Richard Haass, President of the Council on Foreign Relations, Peggy Noonan, Cokie “the hag” Roberts, Sam :omg: Donaldson, and Matthew Dowd.
Over at CNN, Fareed Zakaria talks to Hillary Clinton in Kenya (looking for Obama’s birth certificate).
Have a good one.

A senior Justice Department official said that Holder envisioned an inquiry that would be narrow in scope, focusing on “whether people went beyond the techniques that were authorized” in Bush administration memos that liberally interpreted anti-torture laws.
