Welcome to Press the Face, a Sunday-morning talk show liveblog where you can respond to the Sunday talks with your opinions, support, refutations, or ravings. The larger goal is to provide meaningful accounts of the the shows for those who are unable to watch them, but it's also an opportunity to share our thoughts in real time as armchair spectators of the sport of political discussion.
This week the world was brought to its feet by President Obama's Cairo speech, while the UK was brought to its knees by Parliament's MP expense scandal. Predictions: The motherland will manage to survive, and the U.S. will re-accustom itself to being regarded with respect.
Flights of angels, Dr. Tiller, David Carradine, Air France 477 passengers and crew. We are greatly diminished by your leaving us.

A reminder about posting: Please scroll through the Comments section to the blockquote containing the title of the show you're commenting on and post your comment under that. This helps to keep the comments from bottlenecking at the top of the diary.
Also, don't forget to record your nominee for the Money Quote under the blockquote comment of each show.
Let us go then, you and I. . .
