Despite it being a holiday weekend, expect some news from the shows today.
Colin Powell is supposedly going to fight back against Limbaugh and Cheney. We already know Ridge already took a swipe at Cheney (because CNN has been hyping it for days.) Newt makes an appearance, too. So, one more time, the Republicans really getting attention are the leaders of that party: Cheney, Rush and Newt.
With Mullen on Stephanopoulos, we'll probably get a "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" question.
Jon Kyl on FOX has potential for some real crazy talk. He's a real right wing whacko and, on FOX, he won't be restrained.
Here's the lineup:
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.
"Fox News Sunday" _ Sen. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz.
