geJoin host Brit Hume and FOX's Team Washington weekdays at 6 p.m. ET for "Special Report" — Find out what's happening inside the Beltway and on the world stage.
• President Bush and Congress may all be taking time off for the Thanksgiving holiday, but the debate over the war in Iraq carries on. Correspondent Greg Kelly reports on what the administration and Democrats are saying.
• Then, new Medicare prescription drug plans became open for enrollment last week, but some seniors are complaining that it's too complicated and that there are too many choices. But isn't choice what they asked for? Correspondent Major Garrett takes a look.

• Also, correspondent Bret Baier has more from his interview with Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Peter Pace. Tune in to hear when Gen. Pace thinks U.S. troops may come home, also hear his thoughts on the comparisons between Iraq and the Vietnam War.
• Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad stirred up a storm of criticism last month when he called Israel, "a disgraceful blot" that should be "wiped off the face of the earth." But as correspondent Amy Kellogg reports — in the third of her series this week — relations between Iranians and Jews were not always so hostile.
• And there’s growing support behind a bill to adjust a U.S. law so that babies born to parents in the U.S. illegally would not automatically become citizens. But could that lead to the same kind of problems France has had with disenfranchised youth? Trace Gallagher has a report.

Plus, the United States threatened Tuesday to delay the two-year United Nations budget unless reforms are approved by the end of the year. But could that move cause havoc for U.N. staff? Eric Shawn takes a look.
Real journalism: fair and balanced. That's why we're No. 1 — FOX News Channel.

Hume brings a historical perspective to the political scene that is rarely rivaled.

Each program features a two-minute segment called The Grapevine, which reels off the latest outrageous news nuggets, political poll results and in-the-Beltway gossip that viewers will not see on any other news program. The New York Daily News describes The Grapevine as a must see that, "will make you sound smart around the water cooler… the next day."
FOX News' Team Washington provides live reports from the White House, Capitol Hill, the Supreme Court and key federal agencies. Seasoned correspondents explore political hot spots, races and legislative battles being waged around the nation and abroad.
Hume wraps up each program with a lively roundtable discussion featuring Mara Liasson of National Public Radio, Fred Barnes of The Weekly Standard and Mort Kondracke of Roll Call.
