Does anyone pay attention any more when one of the fluffy dames in network television has a cozy, non-confrontational fireside chat with a megalomaniac?

If you were a killer tree, what kind of killer tree would you be?

Remember the interviews with Saddam? Same system of bribes and benefits.
I’d definitely be a baobab, because, well, they are so big and oppressive, and destructive, in that sense of the word. That is, if I wanted to be a tree, but I think Rosie O’Donnell must be some kind of hybrid mix between kudzu and the baobab. She is just plain evil.
As for fluffy dimwitted clucks interviewing evil bastiches and iceholes in the Troll Kingdom, Diane Sawyer takes the booby prize, because not only does she go all gushingly dhimmi, but she manages to actually LOOK FETCHING in her head scarf!
Me, I prefer the Orianna Fallaci method of interviewing tyrants: fling the chador in his face, and when told not to do that again…do that again. We need more Oriannas.
