ABC's "This Week" � Adm. Michael Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

___

CBS' "Face the Nation" � Former Secretary of State Colin Powell; author Alvin Poussaint.

___

NBC's "Meet the Press" � Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill.; former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga.

___

CNN's "State of the Union" � Former Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge; Sens. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., and Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Ala.

Well, and then there's "Fox News Sunday" _ Sen. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz. :spray:

2. The WaPo says Powell's going to crack back on Shootin' Dick and OxyContin Rush

Looking forward to that one. Also, Durbin versus The Silly Salamander.

5. Still more Republicans than Democrats.

Edited on Fri May-22-09 11:01 PM by Lasher

When the GOP controlled the Executive and Legislative branches we saw more Republicans than Democrats on the Sunday talk shows. But now that Democrats control both branches we see more Republicans than Democrats on the Sunday talk shows.

Edit: Newt again. WTF is he doing on these shows over and over?

Who cares what Newt Gingrich thinks?

May 19, 2009

If you don't think the press' treatment of Gingrich is bizarre, then please point out the prominent Democrat who was driven from office during the 1990s, suffers from dreadful public approval numbers, has no actual base of political support, hasn't been elected to office in more than a decade, hasn't had his hands on the levers of power since before the iPod was invented, and yet is treated like a Beltway big shot. Who is the wildly partisan '90s Democrat who spits out falsehoods with stunning regularity, wallows in sophomoric name-calling, and yet the press corps obediently follows around, making sure to report his or her every utterance as news?
