Coming up on Hardball

Saying that the debate over the new TSA security procedures is a touchy issue is an understatement. But tonight on Hardball, we'll fast forward the conversation to the ticking time bomb scenario: How far are Americans willing to be inconvenienced in order to prevent the next terrorist attack?

And then: Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) is calling President Obama anti-American. What will the Democratic Party do to fight back? We'll talk with Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, Chair of the new American Bridge and Josh Marshall, founder and editor of Talking Points Memo, on the Progressives' new answer to the right-wing echo chamber.

Next up: 'Tis the season, but Republicans—and even a solid portion of Democrats—aren't in the mood to give thanks to President Obama this year. So why have the administration's accomplishments gotten swept under the rug? We'll ask Rep. Jared Polis (D-CO) and MSNBC Political Analyst Richard Wolffe. Plus: Velma Hart spoke out for Americans struggling financially when she questioned the President at a CNBC town hall this fall. But now, she's been laid off—and she's joining us today to talk about her situation.
