You won't believe this....well maybe you will. Please be sitting down for this one. Unfuckingbelievable from Dana Perino. Now I know where they get the blond jokes from.

7. I listened to the show.....
the kicker for me is she only got one out of four questions asked her...meaning the person she was playing for lost, and in reality she is a big loser! I could hardly stand to listen to her, she is a piece of work.

8. No, but they are related.
Cuba wouldn't have felt the need to put nukes on their territory had the US not illegally sponsored the Bay of Pigs invasion. Yeah, we denied involvement at the time, but the people over there aren't that stupid.

9. Does she know if Fidel is alive or dead?
Can she identify Cuba on a map? This administration is not only evil, they employ people who are embarrassments.
