The Hardball Briefing On MSNBC
------------------------------------------------------
First up, Chris from Boston, the "healthcare war is on!"
A Democratic congressman was quoted over the weekend saying that health care
was a "war." As the healthcare debate has turned hostile, who is winning the
it? We'll play Hardball with Congressman Bob Inglis (R-SC) and President of
Americans for Prosperity Tim Phillips on the battle for healthcare in America.

Next up, the Afghan War intensifies,
As violence rises in Afghanistan, are more forces needed for a new strategy in
the Afghan War? Is the war in crisis? We'll have NBC News Chief Foreign
Correspondent Richard Engel to discuss the situation in Afghanistan.

Plus, did Mark Sanford travel on the state dime?
Up until recently, South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford had prospered on the
politics of being politically thrifty. The Associated Press reports that
Governor Sanford used state aircraft to shuttle himself and his family around
the state for personal and political use. With Mark Sanford's wife moving out
of the governor's mansion and new allegations of hypocrisy, is his job in
jeopardy? We'll ask Associate Editor for the State Cindi Scoppe and Washington
Post Columnist Eugene Robinson on the new allegations.

Finally, in the Politics Fix, Politico Executive Editor Jim VandeHei and
Chicago Sun Times Washington Bureau Chief Lynn Sweet will join us to analyze
the politics of the healthcare debate, the state-by-state approval ratings of
President Obama and the rest of the day's political events.
