John Kerry to appear on Face the Nation tomorrow; United Steelworkers prez on ABC
alongside Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY). On CBS's Face the Nation, Bob Schieffer will also interview New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman.

Other Sunday morning programming:
This Week (ABC): Exclusive interview with Senator John McCain (R-AZ) about a no-fly zone over Libya; a discussion about Muslim women with Tina Brown (The Daily Beast and Newsweek editor in chief), Dr. Nawal El Saadawi (Egyptian writer and activist), Zainab Salbi (Women for Women International), and Sussan Tahmadebi (International Civil Society Action Network for Women's Rights, Peace and Security); a preview of the redesigned Newsweek with Tina Brown; a roundtable about jobs with Mort Zuckerman (publisher of the New York Daily News and editor-in-chief of U.S. News & World Report), Chrystia Freeland (Reuters), and Leo Gerard (United Steelworkers President).

It's the second straight week of a labor representative appearing on a Sunday morning talk show; last week AFL-CIO president Richard Trumka was part of the Meet the Press roundtable (watch the program here).

Speaking of Meet the Press (NBC), the guests will be White House Chief of Staff Bill Daley and Rep. Michele Bachmann (R:puke:-MN). The roundtable will have just 2 panelists: Eugene Robinson (columnist for The Washington Post) and David Brooks (New York Times and author of the new book The Social Animal, which sucks.)

Oh, guess who's on Fox News Sunday tomorrow? MARGIE PHELPS (daughter of that despicable Westboro Baptist Church pastor Fred Phelps...Margie is the church attorney)!!!!!!!! But at least there'll be a segment about the Congressional budget debate with Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R-TX).

State of the Union (CNN): discussion about Libya with Stephen Hadley (former U.S. National Security Adviser under GW Bush) and Dr. Ali Errishi (former Libyan Immigration Minister); former Gov. Bill Richardson (D-MN) and Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-TN) on their presidential campaigns and the 2012 election; the House hearings on radicalization of American Muslims with Reps. Keith Ellison (D-MN, also the first Muslim elected to Congress) and Peter King (R-NY, the guy who started these hearings to begin with).

I don't know what Fareed Zakaria will cover on his Sunday morning show GPS on CNN, but on Sunday evening he hosts the special Restoring the American Dream :Getting Back to #1.

Newsmakers (C-SPAN): Rep. Harold Rogers (R-KY).

Washington Watch (TV One): General Colin Powell; a segment on entertainment with Tatyana Ali, Mario Van Peebles, Anna Deavere Smith, J. Anthony Brown, Kym Whitley, Vanessa Williams, and Bill Duke.

1. Leo Gerard (United Steelworkers President) would be good to see
I had to stop watching those soapbox opportunity shows years ago. I just can't take the crap that is announced as fact and left unquestioned by those "journalists".
