Not necessarily apropos of our normal Sunday fare, but it appealed to me because I'm an inveterate doodler with a large pad of sticky notes next to my desktop, often making little animated flipbooks to entertain my kids. In any event, it was a lot more entertaining to watch Jeff Chiba Stearns' animation than to contemplate this Sunday's shows.

The ubiquitous Holy Joe Lieberman is on FOXNews Sunday, undoubtedly to agree with William Kristol that we can't leave Iraq. Will Chris Wallace ask him how he feels about Maliki agreeing with Obama's plan? Al Gore is following up his appearance at NetrootsNation with an appearance on Meet the Press. Somehow I don't see Tom Brokaw treating him quite as well as we liberal bloggers did.
