First, on Press the Meat, Timmy Potatohead hosts Jim Webb, fresh off a trip to Iraq, to tell us how things are going over there.  Then it&#8217;s David Brody of Christ&#8217;s network, NBC&#8217;s David Gregory, NPR&#8217;s Michele Norris and WaPost columnist Eugene Robinson.<\/p>\n<p>Over at CBS, Bush Buddy Bobby Schieffer hosts St. John McCain, plus a couple of campaign shills: David Axelrod of the Obama campaign, and Howard Wolfson of the Clinton campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Over at Fux News Sunday, Weaselface Wallace has the Pillsbury Dough Boy, Karl Rove, and the Chairman of the DCCC, Chris Van Hollen.  This week&#8217;s media whores include Freddy Barnes of the Weekly Standard, Mara Liasson of NPR, Bill Kristol (also of the Weekly Standard, to fairly balance Fred Barnes, I guess), and Nina Easton of Fortune Magazine.

This Weak&#8217;s voice is none other than Steven &#8220;Little Stevie, Silvio Dante&#8221; Van Zandt.<\/p>\n<p>Wolf Blitzer&#8217;s Late Emission includes Commander Codpiece, George Bush, plus Chris Dodd, Lt. Gen. Raymond Odierno, head of the &#8220;Multi-National&#8221; Corps in Iraq, Carl Levin, and Arlen &#8220;would somebody <strong><em>please<\/em><\/strong> pay attention to me&#8221; Specter.  <\/p>\n<p>Later, on 60 Minutes, Scott Pelley tells us that times are tough for Iraq&#8217;s Christian population (what&#8217;s left of them, anyway), Lesley Stahl tells us about Nicholas Negroponte&#8217;s goal of a laptop for every kid in the world, and Steve Kroft helps Will Smith hawk his latest flick.<\/p>\n<p>Better yet, there&#8217;s a new episode of Dexter on at 9:00.  Nothing like a serial killer in high def.  Enjoy your Sunday, and (if you&#8217;re like me) try not to think about having to go back to fucking work tomorrow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, what&#8217;s up today?
