The Sunday talking head line-up is ready for reading. It's a whole lot of not much this morning, I have to say. Any bets on whether Timmeh will ask Mary Matalin about her former boss Dick Cheney and her former co-worker Scooter and “the latest maybe they did, maybe they didn’t tell him to lie” floater from Scotty McLellan? Yeah, me neither. Have you ever seen a more annoyingly self-referential and self-serving line-up? Yeah, me neither. Not enough coffee in the whole world.

Beyond that, it’s a whole lot of “here come the primaries,” with a sprinkling of foreign policy for spice. In short, not a lot of surprises, but the Zinni interview could be the surprise of the day. Guess we’ll see.

To make up for the dud of a line-up, do yourself a favor and shake up your morning with some Celia Cruz (YouTube) and an impressive musical line-up behind her as well. Guaranteed to get you up and moving for the day. What's catching you eye on the blogs and in the news?

Donna Hightower sings Stormy Weather...a little mellow jazz to start your Sunday.

The Sunday talking head line-up is ready for reading this morning. Lots of Presidential campaign discussion this morning, with interviews including Thompson, Edwards (twice), and Huckabee. And a lot of talking head discussion of the intricacies of a primary season that is still 46 days away from beginning.

Some Oleta Adams to start your day. Love her voice...

The Sunday Talking Head line-up is up and ready for reading. One wonders if Blitzer will bother asking Armitage about his outing of Valerie Plame Wilson and what he coughed up to keep his ass out of the indicted chair. But I'm not exactly holding my breath on that one. Other than that, it's a Presidential candidate-o-rama on most of the shows: Dodd, Paul, Huckabee, Richardson, Biden, McCain and Obama.

The Sunday Talking Head line-up is ready for the reading this morning. Congratulations (condolences?) to ABC’s This Week for winning the most craptastic guest line-up award this week. Blergh. But Sen. Dodd on MtP and Mohamed ElBaradei on Late Edition both promise to be quite interesting, indeed, given the news of the past week and what is likely to be in the news next week. Rule of law and Iran, anyone?

The Sunday Talking Head line-up is ready for the reading. Rep. Charlie Rangle officially has the most annoying green room of the day, having to share it with Howdy Doody Adam Putnam and Family Research Council president Tony Perkins. That's enough to give anyone indigestion. Some discussionon SCHIP, but not too many Bushies willing to go on television and defend Ebenezer's veto and "emergency room health care" plan.

The Sunday Talking Head line-up is ready for reading. Newt Gingrich will be on This Week, no doubt explaining why he's on the off-again cycle of his flirtation with a presidential run -- fickle little odious bastard, isn't he? Bill Clinton is making the rounds following the Clinton Global Initiative Summit in NYC. Otherwise, it's a roundup of the usual suspects -- with the exception of a Seymour Hersh interview set for CNN which ought to be intriguing and scary at the same time.

A little latte art to start your morning...

The Sunday Talking Head line-up is ready for reading.  I can sum it up with a single sentence:  "A whole lotta Hillary and a few extras."  If you are a Hillary fan, you are in luck today -- because it's a five show morning for Sen. Clinton today.  (Taylor calls it the "campaign grand slam.")  If you are not a big fan...put on a second pot of coffee, because you are gonna need it.

For those interested in some horse race analysis, the NYTimes has a pseudo-behind-the-scenes as they want you to see them anyway glimpse into some of the campaign back and forth between the Clinton, Obama and Edwards camps.  Speaking of Obama, Digby has a piece on the fetid swamp that passes for Republican banter and radio discourse.

The Sunday Talking Head thread is up and ready for perusal this morning.  It's a whole lotta Iraq and bloviating, and not much else, frankly.  But there could be some interesting sparks on CNN's Late Edition if Rep. Tom Lantos gets asked about why Rush Limbaugh is an ill-informed, bloviating moron.  (Here's hoping Blitzer gives him the chance...but I'm not exactly holding my breath.)   I wanted to highlight a story from Nova Scotia that one of my readers (Audrey -- thanks!) linked up in my comments.  It makes for much better Sunday morning contemplation.  Via the Chronicle Herald:

Two students at Central Kings Rural High School fought back against bullying recently, unleashing a sea of pink after a new student was harassed and threatened when he showed up wearing a pink shirt.

The Grade 9 student arrived for the first day of school last Wednesday and was set upon by a group of six to 10 older students who mocked him, called him a homosexual for wearing pink and threatened to beat him up.

The next day, Grade 12 students David Shepherd and Travis Price decided something had to be done about bullying.

"It’s my last year. I’ve stood around too long and I wanted to do something," said David.

They used the Internet to encourage people to wear pink and bought 75 pink tank tops for male students to wear. They handed out the shirts in the lobby before class last Friday — even the bullied student had one.

"I made sure there was a shirt for him," David said....

The Sunday Talking Head line-up is ready for the reading. Lots and lots of Iraq, which isn't exactly a shocker, is it? Plus, a heaping helping of Fran Townsend, who apparently is a more public-friendly face on national security matters than Michael Chertoff. Who knew? (Raises hand.)

So, what is catching your eye in the news and on the blogs this morning? Do tell.

Here's the Sunday Talking Head line-up. Read it and then run out into the world and avoid the ick. Truly. No idea what NBC was thinking with their line-up, but no thanks. CNN's Late Edition has an intriguing match-up with Michael Gordon from the NYTimes and Michael Ware of CNN. That could be fun.
