To the Pentagon PAO: I just got the following e-mail from a reporter at the Oakland Tribune. What can she do to help?

Subject: I'm stranded at the Kuwait Starbucks!!!!!
Help Help Help. CPIC will not embed me, I have no place to stay here in Kuwait, United Airlines lost my luggage and I have no Plan B.
I still do not understand why they are not letting me embed. I have written articles favorable to our troops that have been read by approximately 700,000 readers. I have expressed a strong interest in seeing GWB go to jail but then 3/4 of America agrees with me on that one and so do half of our troops. I went to bat for the Marines in Berkeley regarding their attack from Code Pink, causing me great loss of credibility with the American Left. I came here because you said you would look into this matter and get back to me. At the very least, please let me stay at Ali until my my return flight is good or refund my plane fare or GET ME A HOTEL.
Thank you.

Exhibit 22: The Pentagon PAO replied to my e-mails, stating that I wasn't being offered an embed because I didn't have any military units in Iraq that were willing to sponsor me. I received this e-mail on February 13, in Kuwait.
Classification: UNCLASSIFIED
Caveats: NONE
You're not being embedded, Ma'am, because no military unit has agreed to sponsor you with them. My thanks.
