The Hardball Briefing On MSNBC
------------------------------------------------------
With his credibility, and possibly his job, on the line, Attorney General
Alberto Gonzales testified today before the Senate Judiciary Committee. We'll
have the latest tonight on Hardball with David Rivkin, former Bush 41 Justice
Department official, and Robert Raben, former Assistant Attorney General under
Clinton, plus more on the investigation of firings with Mike Isikoff from
Newsweek and the Chicago Tribune's Jill Zuckman.
Then, the continuing debate over Iraq. The new Iraq security plan calls for
securing Baghdad, but violence there continues to surge. We'll hear from Reps.
Patrick McHenry (R-NC) and Artur Davis (D-AL).
And late Wednesday, NBC News released disturbing pictures and video of the man
who murdered 32 people at Virginia Tech, sent to NBC between the two shootings.
We'll have the latest developments in the shooting and what we're learning
about the killer from Aamer Madhani of the Chicago Tribune, reporting live from
the Virginia Tech campus.
