Sunday Morning Bobblehead Thread

Let's look at who's framing the debate on all the Sunday Talk Shows, shall we?
By John Amato — September 28, 2014

Conservatives have been foaming at the mouth with glee since Obama decided to start bombing somebody (ISIS), but still are slamming him for not unleashing the Kraken sooner. Some like Bill O'Reilly are calling for a Team America: World Police to be formed to kick terrorists asses around the world. Erik Prince told Bill that it would cost around 2.1 million dollars per troop each year and Bill's plan calls for 25,000 troops which equals over 52 billion dollars a year. He didn't care about the cost one bit, but we can't extend unemployment insurance, food stamps and expand social security for working class families because of freedom. It's no surprise that the Sunday talks shows will be dominated by discussions of the war on terror.

Here's the Morning lineup:
