Those are the words used by CBS News president Sean McManus, who is not a doctor. Still, two-and-a-half months after being critically wounded in Iraq, she's about to be released from Bethesda Naval Hospital. Dozier sustained shrapnel injuries to her head and legs on May 29 when a bomb detonated near the convoy she was traveling with in Baghdad. Her cameraman, Paul Douglas, and soundman James Brolan were killed in the blast. McManus said that Dozier will have full use of her legs and she apparently didn't suffer any brain injuries because he describes her as "sharp as a tack" and says she plans to return to Iraq.

I don't want to go back to the scene of a paper cut, I can't imagine why she'd be going back to Iraq. Maybe she's winding us up for a rousing "Psych!"

Wait she has no brain damage, but is still going back to Iraq? Okay there has to be atleast a little brain damage there.

what a huge mess the USA has created, obviously iraqis were better off before, even if they were repressed!
