LOL.... The dude said that no Americans or foreigners are venturing out into Baghdad for anything. He said he would get kidnapped in a second. AND he meant it....

2. He's afraid of being smothered in a shower of rose petals!

6. Such a traitor
How can CNN employ such a traitor. The President has told us that things were better in Iraq. CNN reported it. As an employee of CNN this individual has gone against the President and has besmirched the good name of CNN.

He/She must be fired! I demand an investigation-

11. Anne Garrels was on Al Franken's program this morning
She's due to return to Iraq in November but is seriously thinking over a change to a country near Iraq instead. The increase in violence and especially the frequency of the kidnappings is influencing her to reconsider.
