I’ve Already Got Battle Fatigue

March 19, 2003

OK, you know what the worst thing about this war is so far? (Obviously, other than the dying and the poor international diplomacy and the general ruination of the world)…

OK, the worst thing about this war is the local news coverage. I just watched Chuck Henry, who normally does goofy travelogue shows like they show on E!, on the news, and he used a telestrator to illustrate our simultaneous attack on Afghanistan. Right after that, I watched the local weatherdude explain the weather in Iraq. Hello?!?!? Am I going to work in Iraq tomorrow? Why do I need to know if I should be carrying my parka?

I’ve been long resigned to the whole idea of this thing, but man, there’s no need to torture me with news coverage that borders on Saturday Night Live outtakes. I guess I’ll just have to watch Blind Date or some other crappy show instead.
