Heads Up: 60 Minutes looks good tonight, Krugman on Tina Brown
Also: The Mission of George W. Bush on CNN. 8:00PM, 11:00PM E.T.
The Mission of George W. Bush President Bush's first term in office.

(Note: I don't think that this is going to an extremely flattering portrait of Bush because it's by John King - who is NO fan of Bush. He's going to talk about how Bush thinks he's on a mission from God from some of the clips I've seen.)


60 Minutes - 7pm E.T. on CBS
(Talk / Tabloid) Security issues at some facilities housing the United States' nuclear weapons.

Topic A With Tina Brown - 8:00PM, 11:00PM - CNBC
columnist Paul Krugman; Cindy McCain, wife of Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.); writer Rik Hertzberg. (Might be interesting to see what McCain's wife has to say for her two-faced husband.)

1. Here's what Ms McCain says
snip>
"It's completely unnecessary," Cindy McCain told CNBC's "Topic A with Tina Brown," referring to the suggestions that Kerry lied about his medals.

"Doesn't have anything to do with any of the issues or any of the campaigns. And the American people are tired of it."

Cindy McCain indicated her sympathy for John and Teresa Kerry, saying, "I know what they're going through."

During the decisive South Carolina primary in 2000, rumors spread that McCain had an illegitimate black child and Cindy McCain was a drug addict.

"I was shocked that anyone would believe that," she said.

2. I've been watching Tina Brown since Dean was on
It's a good panel discussion. Looking forward
to Paul's appearance, thanks.
Definitely think I'll skip the Mission...I
don't care how it's framed.

3. No, CNN will be flattering to bush
in 2000 they did the same thing, Gore was presented as boring with no substance, while bush was presented as nice and solid convictions

They will do the same thing this time. The one they did on Kerry implied that Kerry was just an opportunist. The one on bush they are pushing that he is on a mission, I do not think they will exploit the "God" factor, or anything negative

8. The intro on CNN made it look like a standard suckupfest
I saw the intro and couldn't watch the rest. Yuck.
