It's been a long time since I've done an all-Michael post... but it's also been a long time since he did nine programs in one day, as he did Friday!
But first, let's go back to Thursday's AC360, which had two appearances on two different topics. First up was the announced plans for the withdrawal of troops from Iraq:
Later in the hour, his report on the war against the drug cartels in Mexico:
Then the Friday marathon begins... John Roberts speaks with Michael (and Christiane Amanpour) about the plans for Iraq and Afghanistan. John also mentions that Michael may be heading to Afghanistan in the near future:
Three hours later, Michael speaks with Jim Clancy for International's Your World Today:
An hour later, he is on International Desk, and Hala Gorani asks about some details in the president's plan, such as determining whether sectarianism has been eliminated from the Iraqi security forces. Hala also mentions that Michael will soon be heading back to Mexico:
Three hours later, TJ Holmes has Michael on NewsRoom to discuss the planned drawdown. Time Magazine's Joe Klein also joins in:
Back to the International side in the next hour, and an appearance on Michael Holmes' BackStory:
Followed by a brief chat with Max Foster for World News Europe:
Which gives him time to join Wolf Blitzer for the final hour of The Situation Room and a discussion of the Mexican drug war piece:
An hour off (dinner, perhaps?) and he's back with Wolf, who is sitting in for Campbell Brown. Nine+ minutes to discuss Iraq; also with Christiane and Chris Lawrence:
Another hour off, then back with Anderson (and Ed Henry) to wrap up the day's discussion on the Iraq plans:
*phew* Now that is a full day of work! And another Iron Man award for Michael!

Michael Ware has got to be worn out.
The situation in Mexico seems so horrible.
That report from Mexico by Michael Ware was
unbelievable. Have you guys noticed a new CNN
promo with voice over by Anderson Cooper that
is airing on CNN this March 1st. Now if CNN would
just move away from Rush Limbaugh . Enough.
i am afraid that I might have to tune CNN for
the week because they seem to think people
care about Rush Limbaugh. Not.
Excellent work from Michael.
Cyn, thank you for all your work too.
You go Michael, way to do the rounds. Most people would take a couple of days to do that kind of circuit. Rush him in and rush him out. What a shame.
