Who's on the Sunday Morning Talk Shows

For Sunday, January 29, 2006
Meet the Press (NBC): Host Tim Russert spends the hour with Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist of Tennessee to talk about stuff -- "including domestic spying, the Jack Abramoff scandal, and Hamas' victory in the Palestinian elections." So Tim's down with the misleading "domestic spying" line.
If you want to watch journalists talk to each other, Byron York will be there for their roundtable thing.
FOX News Sunday: Host Chris Wallace talks to Howard Dean. The show redeems itself when Wallace talks to Senator John Thune (R-South Dakota) and House Republican Study Committee Chairman Mike Pence (R-Indiana) about the state of the GOP's agenda.
Face the Nation (CBS): Host Bob Schieffer sits down with George W. Bush, President of the United States.
This Week (ABC): Host George Stephanopoulos interviews two Senators who have at times fit in with the mindset of his audience: Chuck Hagel (R-Nebraska) and Barack Obama (D-Illinois).
Late Edition (CNN): Host Wolf Blitzer talks with White House counselor Dan Bartlett and Senators Pat Roberts (R-Kansas) and Joe Biden (D-Delaware). (Biden has just returned from Palestine where he was observing the election of Hamas.)
---------------------------
Thune and Pence on FNC could be insightful, and Joe Biden will prove his own facsimile of cognizance regarding whatever is on Blitzer's mind. Obama is doubtlessly going to attack "culture of corruption" in the GOP, and the party will have Chuck Hagel to defend it; but that's Steph's show.
Now where is John McCain?
He's gone missing, but I'll have the review of these shows live here at RedState.com probably a little before 2p ET.

Domestic Spying... sounds like spying on the average American, which couldn't be further from the truth. And interesting to hear Dean's revised and recycled take on the "Culture of Corruption."
Wouldn't it make more sense to bold whose going to be on the show rather than the host of the show?
Hagel representing the Republican side again. Good grief. No media bias here. Hey, did Steph ever invite Zell Miller to defend Dems? Never mind.
Usually, I'll hit the mute button when there's somebody on I can't stand listening to. Hegel is special--with him, I turn the TV off and leave the room.
It boggles the mind to think this pseudo-Republican, this empty suit with the philosopher name, fancies himself presidential timber.
Never mind that, where is the Prince of Paltering Pomposity, John Kerry, the Maven of Mendacious Meandering. You mean the poor b-----d sprung for a long distance call from Europe trying to organize a Custer's Last Stand for the morally disadvantaged and this is the thanks he gets! I'm sure he has one of his servants strapped to a chair in the pantry waiting for a last minute call. Theresa will have to listen to his droning alone,but that's love.
You know, when an American makes a phone call to someone overseas, we call that an "international" phone call. That's what's being surveilled here.
McCain was in Davos the last couple days. He may be there over the weekend.
I hear that the main subject in the backrooms is the possible fall of RIM. Blackberry users are scared to death!

You probably might want an adult beverage first.
Dean on FNC???
I can't wait.
Maybe Mehl-MAN can sneak in there.
