Sunday Talk Shows Open Thread



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

There's really just one topic for the guests on the shows this week: Afghanistan. Secretary of State Clinton and Secretary of Defense Gates are both doing ABC, NBC and CBS. CNN has the National Security Adviser Jim Jones. FOX has General Petraeus. Perhaps, we'll have a clearer sense of the strategy -- and the exit strategy by noon, but don't count on it.

Also, the Senate is in session again today. And, the President will be meeting with the Democratic caucus at 2 P.M.

No doubt, these august news shows will find time to discuss the only real news, meaning Tiger Woods, the White House party crashers and that young American women convicted of murder in Italy.

Full slate of guests after the post.

ABC's "This Week" — Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton; Defense Secretary Robert Gates; Sen. Russ Feingold, D-Wis.
