The Hardball Briefing On MSNBC
------------------------------------------------------
Tonight, Ann Coulter plays Hardball! The controversial queen of conservatism
and author of "Godless: The Church of Liberalism" joins us out on Hardball
Plaza for our first summer grilling. We've got a live audience ready to jump
into the conversation on Iraq, Bush and Cheney and where the country is headed
now. And Coulter won't escape your Hardball questions - we'll be asking her
the tough ones you submitted online and we'll take a look at the best of the
video questions, too. If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the Plaza!
Plus, later in the show, more on all the day's big political news including the
Senate's immigration vote today and Sen. Dick Lugar (R-IN) speaking out against
the Iraq war with our Hardball Plaza Panel: MSNBC political analysts Craig
Crawford and Hilary Rosen.
Be sure to tune in to Today tomorrow morning for an exclusive interview with
Sen. Dick Lugar (R-IN), the ranking member of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee.
And we're only getting started on the Plaza...Coming up on Thursday, we're back
out in the heat with a smokin' debate between Christopher Hitchens, journalist
and author of "God is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything," and
political activist Rev. Al Sharpton. The last Hitchens/Sharpton match-up made
headlines in May when they dueled at the New York Public Library. Now they're
back for round two when Hitchens and Sharpton play Hardball on the Plaza.
Don't miss a full hour of fiery back and forth on religion, politics, Iraq and
more. Want to get in on the action? Go to www.hardball.msnbc.com to submit
your questions for Hitchen and Sharpton.
