Sunday Talk Shows Open Thread

First, John Aravosis will be on CNN's "Reliable Sources," which starts at 10:00 A.M. Eastern. He should be on in the early part of the show.

The White House is sending out its big dogs today. Rahm Emanuel has two appearances. David Axelrod and Valerie Jarrett each have one. So, they're selling something as we approach the final push for health insurance reform. It would be great if some enterprising reporter could find out from these top Obama advisers, which staffer has been anonymously trashing labor, one of Obama's strongest allies. Ask Rahm, for sure.

No one from the White House is on FOX. No Democrats should go on FOX. It's a GOP propaganda outlet committed to the failure of Obama and the Democrats. Today, Kent Conrad and Arlen Specter are guests on FOX New Sunday. Conrad hasn't acted like a Democrat on health insurance reform. And, I'm still not sure Specter knows what he is. He's all about Arlen.

The slate of guests is after the break.
