The Hardball Briefing On MSNBC
------------------------------------------------------
Drill Baby Drill!
First up - President Obama announced today that he will be opening up a big
stretch of America's coastlines to oil and gas drilling. Was this a smart
political move? What's the Republican reaction? Radio Talk Show Host Ron Reagan
and former Cheney Aide Ron Christie will score this one.
Next - 14 state Attorneys Generals have filed lawsuits challenging the
constitutionality of the health care reform bill. Georgia's Democratic Attorney
General Thurbert Baker has rejected such lawsuits and Republicans want him
impeached. We'll talk to Attorney General Baker himself - don't miss it!
And, Governor Charlie Crist may be learning a lesson down in Florida . we'll
explain in the Hardball Sideshow!
Plus, the father of a fallen marine refuses to pay the legal fees of a Kansas
church group who picketed at his son's funeral in 2006. The group is known to
protest at the funerals of fallen soldiers because they say American war deaths
are God's punishment for America's tolerance of homosexuality. We'll hear from
Albert Snyder, the father of Lance Cpl. Matthew Snyder, and his attorney Sean
Summers.
Finally, the Catholic Church and the Pope himself have received mounting
criticism for recent child sex scandals. MSNBC's Political Pat Buchanan and
Salon Magazine's Joan Walsh will weigh in.
