It's Friday, the Sunday Chat & Chews loom on the horizon. (All shows air Sunday. Check your local listings for air times.)
ABC's This Week offers up Dennis Kucinich (among others) which makes it worth watching more than anything else that's been offered in sometime. Here's the line up:
Terry Moran, Chief White House Correspondent, ABC News
Linda Douglass, Congressional Correspondent, ABC News
Rep. Dennis Kucinich, D-Ohio
Jim Boskovitch, Father of Cpl. Jeff Boskovitch
Rosemary Palmer, Mother of Lance Cpl. Edward "Augie" Schroeder, II
But just when you're thinking it may score high marks, here comes the roundtable:
Finally, Sam Donaldson, Cokie Roberts and George Will will join me for a classic roundtable. We'll discuss the politics of Iraq, steroids and baseball, and John Roberts.
Dragging Cokie Roberts out of moth balls is frightening enough. Teaming her with George Will and Sam Donaldson is positively frightening. Can nothing stop this unholy trinity?
