Sawyer’s shocking ignorance ping to Today show list.
Can someone please wipe the Vaseline off the lens. Every time I see Diane sawyer my eyes start to water.
Blonde?
She’s blond from the old school - she can talk well, but possesses no cognitive ability ...
Am I naïve to be shocked by this? Diane Sawyer, perhaps the most prestigious person within ABC News, the woman who’s traveled the world including Iraq, actually imagined that insurgents had gotten inside the US Embassy compound in the Green Zone and fired their mortars and rockets from there? Call me crazy but I’m stunned.
“militia groups associated with Moktada al-Sadr, renegade extremist factions of his Mahdi Army.”
There are no “renegade extremist factions” among Mookie’s Boyz in Da Hood!
They’re all takin’ orders directly from Iran. And so is Mookie!
SAWYER: Alright, I want to come back to that in a second, but how much of a surprise is it that they can actually get inside the embassy?
” Can someone please wipe the Vaseline off the lens. Every time I see Diane sawyer my eyes start to water. “
Actually, could you put more on? And turn off the lights. Maybe a bag over her head would help.
Oh, and some duct tape over her mouth. Yeah, that should do it.
Maybe she “mis-spoke?” She probably meant “How could the rockets be OUTSIDE the embassy” ... wait, hmmm, that doesn’t compute either does it?
Much ado about nothing. You do realize that Sawyer worked in the Nixon administration, and helped co-write Gerald Ford’s memoirs? She’s at least nominally an (R).
“stunned?” Do you mean “stuned?”
It’s not a question of her political affiliation per se. And while I know that Diane did work for Nixon long ago, I believe she has since become reliably liberal. She’s a huge global-warming alarmist, for example.
I am shocked though by her imagining that insurgents had actually breached the embassy perimeter in the Green Zone and fired their mortars from there. To me it shows glaring unfamiliarity both with indirect fire and the extent of the security that surrounds the embassy.
SAWYER: Alright, I want to come back to that in a second, but how much of a surprise is it that they can actually get inside the embassy? How fortified is that?
SAWYER: Ahriiit, ah wanna come back to dat in ah second. By da waaay, just ta let ya know, Ah ain't no rocket scientist neither. Ya mean dey fly frum ah long way away?
