Countdown Friday: Back to the Big House

Yes, We're Leading With Paris Hilton: It's called "ratings gold" folks, you'll have to deal with it on a Friday night! The most famous for being famous probation violater in the world is ordered back to jail to serve her entire 45 day sentence. The scene in the courtroom, outside the Hilton home, and in dueling press conferences between the court and the sheriff's department brought us one of the nuttiest public spectacles in history. And we've got team coverage.

Bush's Belly Aches: And yours might too after this week. First President Bush gets sick at the G8 summit, and now he needs to get himself a new Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Of Staff. It's enough to drive a man to drink near-beer. Peter Pace Picks A Pecka Problems.

ODDBALL: Bad bears, bad bears... what you gonna do? What you gonna do when they come for you? ... Plus, a guy in China gets thrown under the bus - literally - and lives to tell about it.

Dismissal Defense: Is it the ruling that could close Gitmo? The Pentagon tells the Judges "wrong answer, come back when you're ready to agree."      Professor Neal Cutyul from the Hamdan Case joins us again.

Woke Up This Morning... Television bids goodbye to the Sopranos. We'll predict how it will all end, and we'll do it without Keith who's a few weeks behind on his TiVo. Catch up Keith!

WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD: Robert Bork was against punitive damages for injury victims, until he became one - now he's suing... A James Dobson pastor-pal says America would deserve to have an entire city destroyed because we celebrate "lesbian sex". Hey, don't ask us to explain it.... and Bill O'Reilly is surprised to see that murder in Kansas was committed by a "white-bread guy" -  guess he thought all crime was committed by illegal immigrants.

Hilton's All Booked Up: Yeah, more Paris Hilton. But this time we're going to attempt to have a reasoned discussion with Dana Milbank of the Washington Post about what this all really means about us as a society. Oh, and there will be puppets.
