It&#8217;s Senator Barack Obama, apparently (according to Time Magazine, anyway). Then an even worse &#8220;Roundtable&#8221; discussion than usual, with tired old has-been and WaPost &#8220;senior&#8221; hack, David Broder, WSJ hack John Harwood, pollster Charlie Cook, and Count Novakula. I think I&#8217;ll pretend it&#8217;s next week, and sleep in an extra hour or so.<\/p>\n<p>Over at Faze the Nation, Bob Schieffer hosts Chucky Schumer, and icky Liddy &#8220;no wonder Bob needs Viagra&#8221; Dole, along with Amy Walter of the Cook Political Report.<\/p>\n<p>On Fux News Sunday, fuxface Chris Wallace hosts a discussion on how dear leader did such a great job with those evil old North Koreans, with a buncha worthless Senators &#8211; Dick Lugar, John Warner, and Senator MBNA. Plus Carl Levin, who isn&#8217;t as worthless as the rest of them (IMHO). Then weaselface has Richard Branson, who I hope will offer send the whole damn bunch of them into orbit &#8211; and leave them there.<\/p>\n<p>Wolf Blitzer&#8217;s Late Emission has a typically fair and balanced<sup>\u2122<\/sup> show, with Bill the Cat (killer) Frist on to answer the question, &#8220;will Republicans hold Congress, or will the world go up in a big mushroom cloud?&#8221; Plus, batshit crazy (and nowhere near as good looking as Liddy Dole) Kay Bailey Hutchison and Jack Reed of Rhode Island, will be on to &#8220;debate strategy in Iraq.&#8221; I guess Hutchison will argue that the Bush administration has a strategy. Other fairly imbalanced guests include Al &#8220;I have assumed control&#8221; Haig, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Stormin&#8217; Norman Ornstein, Mikey Allen of Time, and Andrea &#8220;my Dad&#8217;s Ted&#8221; Koppel.<\/p>\n<p>There might be a good reason to end the boycott of the Goebbels Broadcasting Network, but This Weak with George Snufalufagus sure as hell isn&#8217;t it. First, there&#8217;s an &#8220;exclusive&#8221; with dear leader himself, and then it&#8217;s John &#8220;don&#8217;t blame me I voted for&#8221; Kerry. Next, the axis of drivel is reunited, with George :jerk: Will, Cokie &#8220;the hag&#8221; Roberts, and the man with the worst toupee in the business, Sam :omg: Donaldson. Then it&#8217;s a hard-hitting news piece, as Kelly Kulick discusses her passion for bowling. Yes, Kelly has apparently broken the glass, um, bowling ball, and become the first woman to qualify for a full season on the PBA tour. I&#8217;ll bet she even has her own shoes.<\/p>\n<p>Later, on 60 Minutes, Lesley Stahl profiles Nancy Pelosi (they&#8217;re teasing this story as her maybe possibly being two heartbeats away from the presidency if the Democrats take back the House; wishful thinking, or are they trying to scare the Republicans?). Then, Steve Kroft tells us how millions have been stolen from Iraq&#8217;s treasury. The Bush admnistration declined to comment, at least until they&#8217;re done distributing it to Halliburton. Finally, Scott Pelley tracks down &#8220;Jacob,&#8221; who fled his village in Darfur to escape mass murder &#8211; leaving his family behind. Well, hopefully there&#8217;ll be wacky commentary on paperclips or something from Andy Rooney to pick us all up after that one.<\/p>\n<p>Have an enjoyable Sunday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another snark, another Sunday.
