1. Oh the Irony of it all

katie chatting about a "routine trip in western Baghdad." Why its just like a stroll in an Indiana farmers market. So fucking ironic.

2. Finally! Someone call Alanis Morriset and tell her she's off the hook...

3. I wouldn't make too much of this choice of words, but yeah, she obviously doesn't get it.

Iraq itself is a war zone. Period. To be there is to be in combat, and there are no routine trips in western Baghdad. :eyes:

4. Couric is an airhead rethug. Nuff said.

:puke:

5. And to think, she used to be really

perky. Not particularly smart, educated or informed; but really perky.
