Cheerleader Nation
Words fail me.
What did Katie Couric do to Scott Stantis? She must have squated down and taken a dump on his driveway to deserve the hideous drawing that Scooter served up today. Not since the days of Spitting Image (or the last time Stantis drew Howard Dean) has someone been made to look so horrifying.
Is Katie the best choice for hosting the nightly news? I dunno. I mean everyone had a cow when "serious journalist" Diane Sawyer went to host Good Morning America, and the earth still spins on its axis. And let's be honest - we'd all rather look at Katie instead of Bob Schieffer.
Personally I think once Stantis heard the news his first thought was, "Yes! Another chance to make fun of Dan Rather!" Instead of going with his "courage" sign off (which by itself is funny), Stantis dregs up the whole memo thing again. Yup, let's go back to 2004 when things were better for you and your conservatives, right Scoots? Let's just hope they don't send Katie to Iraq - your war for oil has already cost us one news anchor who's suffering because of Bush's madness, we don't need to lose anymore.
But hey - that's what you get when you elect a former cheerleader...

I wonder if all these people who rip on Katie Couric have ever watched the TV show. She can certainly be friendly, but she's not relentlessly perky, and she's a great interviewer. I've seen her skewer people, usually those who are lulled into thinking she's a perky puffball.
I'd like to see her handle Scotty!

So was Trent Lott (at the University of Mississippi).

Mao: Never a cheerleader.
Stalin: Never a cheerleader.

What do you mean? I was always at the top of the pyramid when University of Moscow played its archrival, Petrograd State. Go Reds!
