• Vice President Dick Cheney came out swinging today, calling some Senate Democrats "dishonest and reprehensible" for suggesting the administration lied or exaggerated pre-war intelligence. Correspondent Greg Kelly sorts out the vice president's speech in a live report from Washington.

• And a heavily debated call to pull U.S. troops out of Iraq: What might happen if U.S. troops did pick up and leave? How would it look to the rest of the world if we got out of Iraq immediately? We’ll ask P.J. Crowley, former special assistant to President Clinton for national security, and senior fellow at the Center for American Progress and Danielle Pletka, vice president of foreign and defense studies at the American Enterprise Institute.

• Then, family members of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, are turning their backs on the terror leader saying they will sever links with him until "doomsday.” With one of our main enemies managing to make enemies out of his own tribe, how will this help us in the War on Terror? Wayne Simmons, a former CIA operative joins us live.

• Plus, the war in Iraq was a key issue in the 2004 election. With the mid-term congressional elections less than a year away, how will the bitter Iraq feud affect the races in 2006? Larry Sabato, director of the University of Virginia’s Center for Politics weighs in.
