Sunday Show Roundup: Emanuel, Summers and More

If you’re a political freak who had one-too-many cocktails last night (perhaps you were watching the Blackhawks game?), leading you to sleep in and miss the Sunday talk show bonaza, I’ve got a roundup for you.

This Week on ABC News was the best of the bunch this Sunday. George Stephanopoulos had an engaging back-and-forth with President Obama’s Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel. Topics ranged from health care to the economy and they even hit on the possible prosecution of…

A Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy?

Probably not, but the ‘get-our-message-in-line‘ campaign organization by the left passed the creepy peg a few rotations ago. Does Media Matters have this much power?

The vast new left-wing conspiracy sets its tone every morning at 8:45 a.m., when officials from more than 20 labor, environmental and other Democratic-leaning groups dial into a private conference call hosted by two left-leaning Washington organizations.

The “8:45 A.M. call,” as it’s referred to by members, began three weeks ago, and it marks

Rahm Emanuel Is Going Nuts

Emanuel appeared “beet-red,” according to an ABC News cameraman who was invited inside by Emmanuel to use his bathroom this morning.

“I’m getting regular death threats. You’ve put my home address on national television. I’m pissed at the networks. You’ve intruded too much, ” Emanuel said, according to the cameraman.

Is it because he has something to hide in the Blagojevich case?

Palin’s ABC Interview: Round Two

Sarah Palin on Hillary Clinton:

GIBSON: I saw you quoted somewhere as speaking rather admiringly of Mrs. Clinton, Senator Clinton, during the primary campaign. Do you think Obama should’ve picked her?

PALIN: I think he’s regretting not picking her now, I do. What, what determination, and grit, and even grace through some tough shots that were fired her way, she handled those well.

The Painful Sarah Palin Interview

In her first of three interviews with ABC News’ Charles Gibson and the only interview since being picked by Sen. John McCain as his Republican vice presidential nominee, Palin categorized the Russian invasion of Georgia as “unacceptable” and warned of the threats from Islamic terrorists and a nuclear Iran.

I’ve made a point of being honest, whether for good or bad, on this site. That said, I have to tell you, that was bad. To be fair, I…

Excerpts From Palin’s ABC Interview

Sarah Palin on Experience:

GIBSON: Governor, let me start by asking you a question that I asked John McCain about you, and it is really the central question. Can you look the country in the eye and say “I have the experience and I have the ability to be not just vice president, but perhaps president of the United States of America?”

PALIN: I do, Charlie, and on January 20, when John McCain and I are sworn in, if
