1. Shit.

Might as well turn on EWTN or PAX.

[merbex]

2. Russert has gone totally over the edge lately with religious themed

shows

I'll bet this will be a love fest for the new Pope

Enough!!

4. No shit. Enough of the God squad already.

FauxNews Sunday looks like it could be fun. Durbin is always on message and will hammer away. Graham could surprise.

3. Lovely...Mitch "the son of a bitch" McConnell

Wonder if he'll be present at the hate-fest tomorrow?

5. Only one possible moderate theologican in the lineup

That Southern Methodist Univeristy prof looks to be quite conservative, those priests from Opus Dei and Ave Maria University are both quite right wing Catholic establishments. Also that JPII Institute dean looks to be pretty conservative.

It remains to be seen what that Sister O'Niell is like from a possible moderate Mt. St Agnes Theological Center for Women.

So much for National Catholic Reporter-style guests.

This lineup the National Catholic Register would approve of in a heartbeat.

6. At least Joe Biden on ABC

If he's on at the beginning I can turn it off after he's done.

Edited to add:

Dexter Filkins, NYT Baghdad correspondent, on CSPAN Q&A at 8 PM looks like it will be interesting.

7. Chalabi on CNN with Blitzer! What the hell is he doing showing his face

around here. Is this "Rehab" time....Dammit....:puke:

[Roland99]

8. Whatever happened to those Iran spy charges?

And shouldn't we be deporting him to Jordan to answer charges of embezzlement?

[ZootSuitGringo]

9. Same shit, different day.

:boring: Good to know what I won't be missing.

10. Morning Kick.

11. Holy Fuck The Democrats Sunday! Goddamn, This Is Over The Edge
