    This week on Fox News Sunday: (11/15/09)

    Attorney General Eric Holder announces that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged mastermind behind 9/11, will be tried in New York City.  The decision by the Obama Administration reignites a key national security debate.  This week Chris Wallace takes a fair and balanced look when he’s joined by two lawmakers close to the story.

    Segment 1 Guests:  Rudy Giuliani, Former New York City Mayor (R)

    Followed by:

    Sen. Jack Reed, (D) Rhode Island / Armed Services Committee

    Plus, from the debate over health care reform to the way forward in Afghanistan, what’s the Republican plan for the Senate’s two most pressing issues?  We’ll get the latest from the GOP’s top man in Washington in an Exclusive interview.

    Segment 2 Guest:  Sen. Mitch McConnell, (R) Kentucky / Senate Minority Leader

    Plus our Sunday Panel:
    Bill Kristol – Weekly Standard & Fox News
    Mara Liasson – National Public Radio & Fox News
    Liz Cheney – Former State Department Official
    Juan Williams - National Public Radio & Fox News

    And we speak with a man who leads his team, working nonstop, to protect us from H1N1.

    Segment 4: Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases

In response to Juan Williams comments about Sarah Palin Obama quit his job as senator and Hillary quit her job as senator to do other jobs why is Juan holding Sarah quitting her job as Governor against her but says nothing about Obama and Hillary and why did Chris not let there be responses from the other panel members on Juan's comments

Great show! Jaun Williams is a complete Obamaman! He is not honest deliberately slants everything that you discuss. The Obama supporters need to wake up; this man "our president" will destroy our wonderful country! Unfortunately, Americans are asleep at the wheel per usual. Too busy, focussing our ourselves then our country! Go Liz Cheney!!!! Thank God for Tony Fauci!

Juan Williams is usually fair in his discussions but today when he becamed unglued while talking about Sarah Palin - that was uncalled for. Why are so many Dems afraid of her?? I think the answer is clear. By the way, I also think Liz Cheney was GREAT.

Chris, We look to you for a somewhat cogent, rational interpretation of the week's events. This morning, Liz Cheney provided whining, whinging and veiled justification for her father's well known positions. She added only interruptions and a shameful intolerance of others' opinion to this morning's debate. Please encourage her to appear on McLaughlin's show;it is more suited to her style. Chris, I expect better of you.

Since when do terrorist and the Islamic Jehad's care about how we look or what we do? The Dems,Obama and Holder just want to make them look good to the rest of the world and could care less about US citizens.

We enjoy your panel and you Chris, however Lez Cheney turned this show into a form that we usually avoid, that is one in which the members are yelling at each other. There are plenty of those shows around for Ms Cheney to participate in. Please keep your panel civil so that we can continue to watch. Thanks

Thank goodness for Bill Kristol and Liz Cheney, the only sane panelists. Mara Liasson has become a left wing robot and unrelenting apologist for Obama. I am glad she is certain that Holder has good reasons for his decision as if any of his decisions have ever shown anything but raw, ugly political motives. And, Juan Williams needs to get a reality check about the we don't torture thing. Sorry, Juan, war is ugly and unpalatable. Our government is charged with protecting us not coddling murderers.

i sure would like to see a true comparison on how obama would've handled 9/11 cmpared to bush in his first 8 months,and how he obama would of reacted. because he sure is making a mess of this country with his army of czres. give liz cheney a chance i totally agree with liz and bill crystal regarding this so called trial of a terrorist that loves to kill americans how soon we forget

Supporters of the decision to bring the terrorists to trial in NYC say we should "trust" our Judicial system; that this will show the world how shining our Judicial system is. Well if that's true, then why is it that if the terrorists are found not-guilty they will not be set free? Because they are a threat? The shining example to the world is really regardless of what our Judicial system outcome is, we have already sentenced these guys to be held indefinitely, hmmmm

My husband and I watch your program every Sunday and always enjoy it. This Sunday 11/15/09, the segment on Dr. Fauci and what all he had done on research for infectious diseases for so many years, I have one question....Has he ever one the Noble prize? If not, how come he is overlooked and Obama gets one for his "plans".

William J. Tsamis

A trial of KSM and co. in NY will eclipse more newsworthy headlines. It will be like the OJ Simpson trial on speed. Dominating the newspapers and television news, not to mention the blogosphere, it will take away the spotlight from current problems. Obama has already lost much of his political capital; when this "trial" begins, his governance will take a back seat to this unnecessary showcase. Prepare to be drenched by media drama for at least two years.

Obama doesn't want to take responsibility for anything. He is way under qualified. He is like a little kid that wants all of the popular bully kids to like him. He is a terrorist sympathizer and doesn't act in the best interest of the American people. He is acting hitleresque. He wants to control the banks, the media, health care and he and his czars are try trying to destroy the private sector and control salaries. Yes, God Help this country!

Since we don't execute people any more, at the most life imprisonment, there's a good chance that these Jihadists will be inserted into our prison poplulation for a long time. What will be the result of this? Another "teaching moment"? How many times have you read of a prisoner being "converted" to a better life while doing time for heinous crimes? This happens often because they've received counseling at a time when they have a lot of free time. Now they'll be getting different counseling.

WHY DO YOU PUT PEOPLE LICE LIZ CHENEY ON YOUR SHOW. wHAT ARE HER CREDENTIALS, THAT SHE IS THE DAUGHTER OF AN UNLOVED vICE PRESIDENT?

November 15, 2009 at 11:05 am

Linda Wingfield

Our president represents all U.S. citizens and once again I am offended that he has bowed to a foreign power, even as a symbol of respect. I consider that to be un-American.

puremoxie

Please do not invite Liz Cheney back! Horrible! She was very rude to Juan, Mara barely got a chance to speak and Chris had to be the tactful host he is and couldn't manage to shut her up politely.

Liz Cheney didn't get the talking points. This is 'pro-wrestling'- style TV. To bump off the mumbling Brit Hume dogging Juan is quite a feat. You've got to tell her the gig. Chris has to act non-bias and when he tries to throw you a softball question, you shut up and let him throw it. Then you bat it out of the park. She's still acting like she does on all other TV-- combative, talking without taking a breathe, and saying irresponsible things to gin up the base thinking everyone's against her.

8 years in "Go-on Geronomo" with 3 Convictions! Cut the Republican Double-Talk, It'll Cost You Guys Out of Another Election, Already! "CHUBBY Liz" Cheney Looks Like She's Pregnant Again! "Oh, She's Not?"

Why should Holder's decision to bring prisoners to the U.S. from Gitmo come as a surprise? Just another "nail in the coffin" showing disrespect and lack of safety toward the American people by Washington!

I have two concerns regarding moving trials of 9/11 combatants to NYC. First of all, I am sure there are a lot of people in NYC that would love to see these people dead, Why spend oodles of money in this economy for security for one person when he could be tried where he is. Second point, all these people keep saying what kind of message this will send when these people are convicted. Don't they understand that these are religious fanatics, and they don't look at things the same way we do?
