Sunday Preview: Rummy, Gray, et al.

In addition to the final Capital Gang tonight (CNN, 7 p.m.), this weekend’s talk shows will feature SecDef Rumsfeld (Meet the Press, This Week, Fox News Sunday), Bono (Meet), Gen. John Abizaid (Face and CNN’s Late Edition), and Carl Levin and Iraqi PM Ibrahim al-Jaafari (both Late Edition).

For true Washington wonks, though, the highlight of the weekend might be George Stephanopoulos’s interview with former FBI Director L. Patrick Gray–a.k.a. Deep Throat’s boss. A preview of the interview:

MR. GRAY: [Mark Felt] was a really formidable character, and as it turned out, a formidable foe as far as I was concerned.

MR. STEPHANOPOULOS: And formidable liar.

MR. GRAY: Yes, because he told me time and again, he was not Deep Throat.

…

MR. GRAY: This was a tremendous surprise to me, and you talk about shock in Iraq and awe in Iraq. I could not have been more shocked and more disappointed in a man whom I had trusted, and I felt totally at a loss as to understand why he did not come to me and tell me what his problems were.
