Then, at the roundtable, it&#8217;s CNBC economic &#8220;expert&#8221; (and former Goldman Sachs analyst) Erin Burnett, conservative chowderhead Paul Gigot, CNBC&#8217;s John Harwood and (get ready to take a drink, Vernon) Ted Koppel.<\/p>\n<p>Over at Faze the Nation, Bush buddy Bobby Schieffer drags li&#8217;l Lindsey Graham out of his closet, plus there&#8217;s Colorado Gov Bill Ritter, Richmond Mayor Doug Wilder, some cracker from Florida named Adam Putnam, and Henry Kissinger protege C. Fred Bergsten, Director of the Peterson Institute for International Economics.<\/p>\n<p>On Fux News Sunday, Weaselface Wallace hosts Grampy McCain&#8217;s campaign manager Rick Davis, his counterpart in the Obama campaign, David Axelrod, MN Gov Tim &#8220;nothing wrong with that bridge&#8221; Pawlenty, and PA Gov Ed Rendell.  Plus there&#8217;ll be the usual fuxheads.<\/p>\n<p>At the Goebbels network, George Snufalufagus has former Clinton Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, plus the man who saved us from being burdened with an Al Gore Presidency, James Baker.  Then it&#8217;s the ever entertaining Barney Frank, and the ever annoying Roy Blunt, on to debate the &#8220;political fallout of the economic crisis.&#8221;  On the &#8220;Roundtable,&#8221; it&#8217;s the WaPost&#8217;s Dan &#8220;got no&#8221; Balz, the NY Times&#8217; Paul Krugman, Cokie &#8220;the hag&#8221; Roberts and George :jerk: Will.<\/p>\n<p>CNN&#8217;s Late Emission is hosted by former U-Boat Commander Wold Blitzer.  What more information do you need?<\/p>\n<p>Later, on 60 Minutes, Armen Keteyian (I thought he was a sports guy) reports on the FBI undercover agent who infiltrated the Gambino family. Lesley Stahl reports on &#8220;weaponry so advanced that it spots the enemy and destroys it from nearly two miles above the battlefield&#8221; (makes you proud to be an American, don&#8217;t it?), which was used last year in &#8220;the fight for Sadr City.&#8221;  And Morley Safer goes to Tuscany, Italy to drink wine. Nice work if you can get it.<\/p>\n<p>And I get to stay up late tonight and watch all the HBO and Showtime stuff that I usually have to record and watch later, because, in honor of that great human being Chris Columbus, I don&#8217;t have to go to work tomorrow.  <\/p>\n<p>Have a good Sunday, y&#8217;all.  And if you go to see The Express, bring a box of hankies with you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s economy day on Press the Meat today, with NJ Gov Jon Corzine, and McCain lackey and former Bush Budget Director Rob Portman.
