It's a travesty that Katie is paid millions to voice these sentiments. 'Perky' and 'cutesy' does not apply to someone like her speaking about terrorists who hold the life of their prisoner in the balance. Would SHE think this way if it were HER daughter? I can only imagine how the parents of their innocent daughter must feel on hearing this twit.
Like an "old proverb" goes:
"A Conservative ain't nuthin' but a Liberal that's been mugged, abused or betrayed."
