Katie Couric didn't disappoint. As soon as the news of Saddam's capture broke yesterday, a number of FReepers began speculating as to how Couric would react to the "bad" news this morning.
Katie wanted to paint a gloomy picture as to how Saddam's capture wouldn't improve the situation on the ground:
"Isn't Saddam's capture basically just symbolic?" Sanchez said that it was more than symbolic, and that although there would still be violence, this was a major step.

Q: "Ibrahim Al-Duri is considered the real mastermind."
