Sunday news shows: Sending in the clowns

[stevedeshazer]

ABC's "This Weak": Secretary of State Colin Powell advances the PNAC agenda with special guest Iranian Foreign Minister Kamal (We're Next!) Kharrazi.

CBS' "Face the Nation": Howard Dean, this one actually looks good, and Bob Schieffer is a decent interviewer.

NBC's "Meat the Press": Watch Tim Russert lob softball questions to Condoliar Rice, then hammer Dick Gephardt.

Fox "News" Sunday: Watch Tony "Snow" his viewers with another Condoliar puff interview, then whack on John Edwards....

Will *anyone* bring up a real issue?

2. If Josh MM is right, it might get interesting tomorrow

After all, every major newspaper is screaming the headline that the CIA asked the DoJ to investigate the WH. I know most of these guys are total whores, but I don't think they can ignore this.
Condi will probably bobble her head right off from all the lies she'll tell, but GE Russert won't even notice, he'll just move on to the bashing of Gehpardt.

4. I thought Condi blinked and shook her head "no" when she lied

She "bobbles" her head, too? What's that?

[janekat]

11. frequent blinking, looking down WHEN you tell the lie, rubbing nose

excessive perspiration are all "classic" signs of lying.

14. that's why they call her "the unflappable Condi Rice"

[stevedeshazer]

5. Extra points if

either Russert or Snow says anything at all about the CIA request. I'll be surprised if they do, and even if this happens, they'll let the Supertanker lie like a rug.

3. You should write for TV Guide......nice descriptions............eom

6. iirc

Kamal is very articulate and knows how to play the game. I saw him on Charlie Rose. Rose was so insensed by the guys words plus kewl, that he turned beet red and began to slober like Novak. It was a friggin demented.

15. Dean on Face the Nation

Hopefully Dean rips into the Bush administration for the CIA treason.

Hopefully Russert has the cojones to quote the Post on the CIA affair, then to quote Bush I on "treason."

Then, if that happens, hopefully Gephardt will follow up.
