1. John King is in the studio to start us off this evening.
Mentions of the memorial services in NYC and at the Pentagon.
Then moving on to support for the War in Afghanistan, or rather the lack thereof. Tom Foreman is keeping them honest.
ETA: Michael Ware is live from Kabul and David Gergen is also in to talk about the lack of support, I suspect.
Michael says that we're going to need a huge amount of troops out there to continue fixing this.
ETA2: John asks Michael how the Afghanis feel about things. He says "They want you out - but they don't want you to leave the mess that is currently Afghanistan." Harsh, but overwhelmingly true.
2. More on Joe Wilson!Fail. Joe Johns is here to tell us about the business. In 48 hours - Wilson has apparently raised $700,000 but Miller has over $1,000,000. ♥
25,000 different people giving money. :D
David Gergen kisses Dem ass seems to agree that maybe the Dems should tell Wilson off. Officially, I mean.
3. Erica's Bulletin: anti-Healthcare march tomorrow, shooting spree in Michigan, people from The Vampire Diaries were arrested last month? (*yawn&), epic art-theft.
4. An account from an embedded reporter who was in a unit when they were ambushed. Harrowing.
5. Then over to pre-recorded Andy and Peter Bergen. In Kandahar. They discuss, as they have been all week, how things are going, whether things are working.
Peter Bergen poses the question - will the politicians give the military enough time to finish the job. I think the conclusion is that its unlikely.
6. Remember the Yale Student from last night's Bulletin? Randi Kaye is hear to tell us all about it.
Unsurprisingly the wedding has been cancelled. It's a weird one.
7. Erica's Bulletin Redux: Discovery back on the ground (I watched it live!), US going to start talking to N. Korea, more on Semenya - Aussie papers being dicks apparently, Jeter broke a record of some kind.
John King is a Red Sox fan.
!!! BEAT 360! It's been ages since we had one!
:DDDD The Viewer makes a nice 'I'm Erica's #1 fan' thing and Erica says: I ♥ you. And then John follows up with 'I thought I was your number one fan.
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
8. Tonight's Shot - Anderson's Reporters Notebook. Which is...sorry, I shouldn't laugh, it just sounds really dramatic and Anderpants' voice is really deep and sort of gravelly?
