1. Glenn Greenwald will also be on ABC's This Week

As a reminder, on Sunday morning, I'll be on ABC News' This Week roundtable, along with George Will, former Obama White House Counsel Greg Craig, former RNC Chair Ed Gillespie, and The New York Times' Helene Cooper. The topics will be Kagan, the Karzai visit/Afghanistan, and other topics, and will be preceded by an interview with Sens. Pat Leahy and Jeff Sessions, the Chair and ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, so it should be interesting.

2. No John McCain??

It can't be Sunday without John McCain blathering on about something on one of the talk shows.

It might be worth watching Di Fi take Kyl apart though.

5. The "loser"? Why in the world would they have him on?

I consider him a BIG LOSER. What does he know? Nuthin'.

Same with his sidekick "quitter."

Are they not even trying to book Dems or would none appear? At least the Lizard won't be on - the Cheney's must be in hiding.

7. Fair and Balanced...

Laura Bush on one side, Newt Gingrich on the other.

Let me see..... that would be the right side and the far right side.
