Katie Couric going to Iraq.

[Swede]

CBS executives declined to provide other details about her travels, citing the U.S. military's request that the network withhold specifics about her movements for security reasons.

Let me be the first to say

Go, Katie...and keep on going!

[ronnykmarshall]

1. She's getting a job for Iraqi TV?

Good Morning Iraq?

[wryter2000]

3. Good one!

I was going to say I hope they keep her, but that might suggest I want something awful to happen to her. I don't. I just want her out of Walter Cronkite's chair!

4. That was my first thought, too!

Over the weekend, C-Span aired a talk by a State Dept. woman who had been in Iraq setting up "communications" (read radio talk shows, etc.). Bet they could use some of lil' Katie's help in getting the propaganda media going over there!

2. One way, or round trip?

5. I thought she was not going to travel due to her children?

Ratings trump children now?

I'm with the others: Couric can just go and stay. Or keep on going. Doesn't really matter to me. She really doesn't even rate any longer. To most, CBS no longer has an Evening News program.

6. Helmet, check. Flak jacket, check. Mini skirt, check

[tanyev]

7. Leg Bronzer, check. Cute 4 inch heels in camo pattern, check.

[Disturbed]

8. She will perk up the Troops with her perky smile.

She will be the top cheer leader for more Blood For Oil.

9. Foolish. She's Likely to Break Her Wrist. Sweet Irony.
