Sunday Talk Shows: Supreme Court's Ruling

Jack Lew, Nancy Pelosi, Howard Dean, Chuck Schumer, Vicki Kennedy, Keith Olbermann,Gov. Martin O'Malley, Gov. John Hickenlooper, Henry Waxman,Gov. Brian Schweitzer, Rep. Peter Welch, and Katrina vanden Heuvel

Meet The Press
This Sunday: An exclusive interview with the Democratic leader in the House, Rep. Nancy Pelosi with her reaction to the Supreme Court’s decision on President Obama’s health care reform law. Plus, we’ll get her take on the race between President Obama and Mitt Romney, as well as what lies ahead for the Democratic party.

How will the Supreme Court’s decision to uphold President Obama’s health care reform law shape the 2012 race? As both candidates adjust their strategies for the fall, we’ll have an exclusive debate between two top campaign supporters. Joining us: Obama supporter Fmr Gov. Howard Dean (D-VT) and Romney Supporter Gov. Bobby Jindal

President Obama’s health care law was upheld by the Supreme Court this week while Republicans in Congress vow to repeal it. Is the issue of health care reform finally put to rest? Is it now easier or harder for Mitt Romney to attack the president on health care? And what effect will the Supreme Court’s ruling have when voters go to the polls in November? Our roundtable weighs in: NBC’s Savannah Guthrie and Chuck Todd; Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson; and the National Review’s Rich Lowry

Pelosi: GOP mouthpiece for health insurers
Airing Sunday, House Democratic Leader Rep. Nancy Pelosi says the GOP’s call for repealing the health care law is unrealistic.

ABC This Week
The widow of former Sen. Ted Kennedy, Vicki Kennedy, a driving force behind the push for health care reform, speaks exclusively with George Stephanopoulos Sunday on "This Week."

In her first interview following the Supreme Court's landmark ruling upholding the Affordable Care Act, Vicki Kennedy weighs in on what the court's historic decision means for the country, and for her late husband's legacy on health care reform, which he championed for over four decades in the Senate before his death in 2009.

Plus, White House chief of staff Jack Lew and House Budget Committee chair Paul Ryan, react to the Supreme Court's blockbuster decision to uphold President Obama's signature piece of legislation, and discuss what happens next in the battle over health care reform.

With Chief Justice John Roberts writing the 5-4 majority decision declaring constitutional the individual mandate requiring Americans to buy health insurance or pay a penalty, the White House gains a major win less than five months before the presidential election. Will validation by the conservative chief justice provide a seal of approval for health care, and draw more public support for the still-controversial legislation? Or will Republican calls to repeal "Obamacare" grow stronger through the remainder of the 2012 campaign?

White House chief of staff Jack Lew and Rep. Paul Ryan discuss the landmark health care ruling, Sunday on "This Week."

Then, the "This Week" powerhouse roundtable debates the Supreme Court's key health care and immigration decisions and all the week's politics, with Keith Olbermann, ABC News' George Will, Democratic strategist and ABC News contributor Donna Brazile, former Rep. Artur Davis, and "Nightline" co-anchor Terry Moran, who covers the Supreme Court for ABC News.

As the Obama and Romney campaigns continue sparring over jobs and the economy, how much will the Supreme Court's decision impact the race for the White House? Will growing fears of over-politicization of the Court change following the health care decision, or does Justice Antonin Scalia's vocal dissent on Arizona's immigration case earlier this week signal continuing partisan rancor? And what will this week's decisions mean for the legacy of Chief Justice Roberts and the current Supreme Court?

Plus, "This Week" takes its weekly trip down memory lane in "What Year Was It?" See the whole political picture, Sunday on "This Week."

CBS Face The Nation
Sunday on Face the Nation: Days after the Supreme Court rules on health care, House Speaker John Boehner, sits down with CBS News Chief White House Correspondent Norah O'Donnell, substituting for Bob Schieffer on "Face the Nation."

Then, two Senators take on the ruling and its political and legal implications. Plus, what will it mean for patients and doctors? Norah sits down with Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Sen. Tom Coburn

And, the view from the states with Gov. Martin O'Malley, D-Md., and Gov. Scott Walker, R-Wisc. How does the decision affect their states?

Finally, a roundtable breaks it all down: POLITICO's John Harris, National Journal's Major Garrett and CBS News' John Dickerson and Jan Crawford

Fox News Sunday
The Supreme Court upholds the Obama Administration’s signature piece of legislation, health care reform. We’ll hear from White House Chief of Staff Jack Lew on the real world test for the law and Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, who is part of an effort to legislate it off the books.

CNN State of The Union
We’ll talk to Jack Lew, President Obama’s Chief of Staff, about the landmark, 5-4, Supreme Court ruling upholding “ObamaCare.” Chief Justice John Roberts cast the deciding vote in favor of the law that makes it a requirement for most Americans to carry insurance, or pay a tax penalty, as authorized by Congress’s power to levy taxes.

After two years of heated debate by Tea Party activists and Republican lawmakers against the law. The ruling is a major victory for Congressional democrats and President Obama who supported it. How will the ruling play out on the campaign trail?

Then, in a historic vote the House finds Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress. Is the investigation and corresponding vote a “politically motivated” effort against the administration – as Holder has said it is?

Plus, how will the Affordable Care Act impact small businesses, state budgets, and individuals not covered by their employers, as unemployment remains high, and as states continue to face budget shortfalls? We’ll talk to Jennifer Granholm, the former Michigan Governor and current Obama supporter – and Carly Fiorina, the former Hewlett Packard CEO and California Senate Candidate, about the law and its implications.

Also, how good, or how bad, is the U.S. economy really doing? We’ll sort through the confusing and contradictory economic headlines and assess where it really stands.

CNN”s White House Correspondent Dan Lothian, and USA Today’s Washington Bureau Chief Susan Page, join us to discuss the political fallout from the Supreme Court ruling on Health Care and other political stories of the week.

And finally, as the Colorado fires take a deadly turn Gov. John Hickenlooper joins us with the latest on the monster fires that have come roaring down his state.

Fareed Zakaria GPS
On "Fareed Zakaria GPS" this week: How to shift Moscow from being part of the problem to part of the solution in Syria; a smart discussion on Obamacare and the economy, with Katrina vanden Heuvel, Jeff Sachs and more; and India's huge project to fingerprint 1.2 billion people.

Did they finally get around to reading the research that showed that week after week, they interview mostly RW shills something like 60% or more of the time?

And why does Schieffer pick this week to be off? He couldn't gloat?

And then CNN has the nerve to indicate the following:

Also, how good, or how bad, is the U.S. economy really doing? We’ll sort through the confusing and contradictory economic headlines and assess where it really stands.


This from the network that manufactures "confusing and contradictory" headlines like this?



They can't even sort their way through the food court on the 1st floor of their building.
