Get this lady a script, stat

Sally Field is one terrific actress. Take away her script, and you get last night's rambling Emmy speech.

We all remember her, "you like me, you really like me!" comment years ago after winning her second Oscar for "Places in the Heart." She was much younger then. Now, she's 60, and she should know a little something about making speeches in front of strangers.

By the way Sally, there have been a number of women in recent history who ordered young men into battle. And while we're parsing her statement, I imagine there are just as many dads awaiting the return of their sons from battle as there are mothers. Let's not forget them, ok?
