Here is the finished(i use that term lightly as it is never really finished) script. I dont know if people usually post them when they are finished but in case someone else searches on this thread. Thanks again everyone.

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
#use warnings;

use DBI;

my $all = ();
my $EDO = ();
my $comment = ();
my $now = localtime();
my $result = ();

my $dbargs = {AutoCommit => 0,
              PrintError => 1};

open (DATA, "@ARGV");

my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:SQLite:dbname=scan.db","","",$dbargs);

while (<DATA>) {
    ($EDO) = /=EDO=([^=]+) Result=/ if /^=/;

    $all = $dbh->prepare("select comment FROM rr where EDO=\'$EDO\'");
    $all->execute();
    my $result = $all->fetchrow_hashref(); 

    print;
    print "\nMitigation:  $result->{comment}\n\n" if ( /^UNIX Checklis
+t/ );
}

close (DATA);

$dbh->commit();
$dbh->disconnect();
