First and foremost, Happy Mothers Day to all the mothers out there -- including mine, Rita Madonna (also a regular reader of AMERICAblog.)
The theme for this Sunday: Washed up Republicans. Back from the past are Cheney, McCain and Gingrich. Or as the DNC's Hari Sevugan put it, "1996 Called. They Want Their GOP Sunday Show Lineup Back." What's old is new again with the Republican party.
Besides the back to the future Republicans, there's lots of foreign policy talk.
Here's the lineup:
ABC's "This Week" _ Retired Marine Corps Gen. James Jones, the president's national security adviser; Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz.Notice the leaders of Afghanistan and Pakistan opted for the softball show.
