Somebody is assigned to type away and watch people everyday. Adding to the biographies assigned to them and waiting to showcase their work in progress when that person dies.

Are 'insurgents' really people who are creating an uprising? Or are they people who are mad that their livelihoods and families are being killed and bloodied and butchered in front of them? What defines one? Someone who is threatening the lifestyle of you? I think the true insurgents are being born over there right now and they won't care about an A&E biography.

The quote below is taken from correspondent Bess (the lovely, talented, musician, artist, writer) reporting from New York City:

On my way home this evening, I passed a group of maybe 15 people who
were protesting the war. Just off to the side were literally 20
cops, several patrol cars, vans, the works. I mean, come on, now. 15
people! It's not even like it was some racy radical organization! It
was CodePink, for crying out loud!
