Madeleine Peyroux singing "Don't Cry, Baby" and "Don't Wait Too Long"

My fellow C&Lers, it's Sunday morning again. Before I force myself to listen to the Beltway Bubble Bunch pontificate, dissertate, obfuscate, conversate, orate and altercate, I'm going to grab me a steamy hot cup of my favorite coffee and relax to a little Madeleine Peyroux.

Boy howdy, there's quite a line up for us today. A little for everyone, I think. President-elect Barack Obama will by on This Week, while they'll be talking about his presidency on The Chris Matthews Show. FOX News gets a double dose of Bush on the Legacy Rehab tour, with Bush 41 and 43 cozying up to Chris Wallace, while the big Dick is on Late Edition with Nancy Pelosi. Don't suppose there'll be much cozying up there. And if that's not enough for you, would-be Illinois Senator Roland Burris and unofficial obstacle Sen. Dick Durbin will Face the Nation with more of the "Will he or won't he?" foolishness. A wealth of political bread and circuses to be had this morning, doncha think?

ABC's "This Week" - President-elect Barack Obama

CBS' "Face the Nation" - Former Illinois Attorney General (and Senate appointee) Roland Burris, Rep. John Boehner, R-Ohio, and Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill.

NBC's "Meet the Press" - Comedian and author Bill Cosby, author Alvin Poussaint, Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., and District of Columbia Mayor Adrian Fenty and former Mich. Rep. David Bonior.

NBC's "The Chris Matthews Show" - Panel: Clarence Page, Kathleen Parker, Norah O'Donnell, Reihan Salam. Topics: Will Obama's presidency redefine America? What does Obama inherit from his four predecessors?

CNN's "Late Edition" - Vice President Dick Cheney and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

CNN's "Fareed Zakaria GPS" - Fareed Zakaria talks about the Israel-Gaza conflict and the possible repercussions.

"Fox News Sunday" - President Bush and former President George H.W. Bush.

So, what's catching your eye this morning?
