Katie Couric was doing her JOB today...
Either that or I wasn't fully awake. But I could've sworn she was raking Stormin' Norman over the coals about why our troops keep getting their ass kicked and how our policy in Iraq is failing. Did anyone else catch it?

2. She actually didn't take his bullshit responses
and followed up more than once. I didn't hear all of it, Mrs. Wickerman had a serious problem with her hair today and was offering witty attacks on on dear ol' Katie that were more interesting than Normie's lies, so my attention strayed.

3. Wrong target, though!
It's Rumsfeld's War -- Schwarzkopf is out of the loop!

5. Yes, But He's a Staunch Defender of this Stupid War
Plus he bashes General Clark ad nauseum, so no love lost from me...

18. I'm in agreement
It always seems though when the mainstream decide to get "tough," it's never with the actual key players.

4. Why would the problems in Iraq today be his fault
She is racking a retired General over the coals for the bull shit that is happening under a different set of egotistical war lords.

If Katie "whore lips" Couric was doing her job, she would be asking the tough questions to the shrub and rummy.
She is one of the biggest media whores in the industry.

7. Did she have her glasses on?
That's always the sign that she's about to embark on a round of Serious Journalism.

12. Bush has his second term; the mediawhoring might diminish a bit --
Rove may be enjoying Christmas, and loosening for a moment his iron grip on the press.

15. That is exactly what is hapening ...
Flipping past Faux News, I even saw flag-draped coffins! How many of those did I see pre-election? A - Zero! These propagandists accomplished their goal with constant attacks on Kerry and now they are trying to show how "fair and balanced" they are. Insidious and evil propaganda. It works.

17. ms. couric has been mentioned as a replacement for Dan Rather.
Perhaps katie thinks it's time she actually accumulated some journalism cred. Stranger things have happened, but I doubt it.
