For Sunday, March 18, 2007

Meet the Press (NBC): Host Tim Russert has one of his noisy panels to discuss the four year anniversary of the start of the Iraq war: former Representative Tom Andrews (D-Maine) of some outfit called Win Without War; former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Texas); Richard Perle of AEI; & Representive. Joe Sestak (D-Land of the Lost). After that, he talks to Chuckie Schumer about the firing of the U.S. attorneys.
FOX News Sunday (FNS): Host Chris Wallace, interestingly enough, talks to two of the U.S. attorneys who were canned: Bud Cummins and David Iglesias. The Arlen Specter, that Senator from Pennsylvania, will be on to issue his proclamation on the matter, after which John Kerry will be on to talk about Iraq (yawn).
Face the Nation (CBS): Host Bob Schieffer SecDef Bob Gates about Iraq and Walter Reed, then he'll rap with Diane Feinstein about the U.S. attorneyes.
This Week (ABC): Host George Stephanopoulos talks to Senators John Cornyn and Pat Leahy about the U.S. attorneys.
Late Edition (CNN): Host Wolf Blitzer listens to National Security Advisor Steve Hadley, Okinawa Jack Murtha, and his usual cast of thousands.

I assume nothing interesting has happened this past week. Another Russert panel on the war, Schumer expressing mock outrage about sometthing, Specter vowing to hold hearings into something, John Kerry and Okinawa Jack opening their traps... and the last thing we need, in my estimation, is the U.S. attorneys talking about the U.S. attorneys. It might be interesting of they went all Joe Wilson no. 4 on us, but good lawyers are too bright for all that.
We'll see how it goes. I'll have the report here at RedState.com tomorrow afternoon.

I'm sort of interested to see what he brings to the roundtable. He of all people has an interest in exploring the surge as he is probably looking for opportunities to say something along the lines of: We weren't "right", but history may yet prove us more right than wrong...
