Never forget Jessica Lynch
Valerie Plame isn't the only American patriot that the Neocons set their sites on.

Jessica is the one to bring up when they have a tough time believing they were lied to. Forget WMDs. Regardless of the fabricated evidence, the jury is still out until Election day. There is always the possibility that they well plant WMDs to dig up again in October.

They incontrovertable one they lied to us about was Jessica Lynch. And when she wouldn't go along with the lies, they payed her back by saying she was anally raped. Yes, that's how this administration treats our American Heros.

1. I just saw an ad with her as part of a motivational speech tour.
Edited on Tue Mar-16-04 06:49 PM by FoeOfBush
She's gonna give the speech covering 'Perserverence'. Advance tickets $49 per office(That's right if you have 10 people that's only $4.90 each - practically FREE!!). $225 at the door. Also appearing, Zig Ziglar, Joe Montana and 2 other dudes I can't recall!!

I just hope she's received good advice about this gig and isn't being used by anyone.

Edit: No link, but if you can get the print version of 3/16/04 San Francisco Chronicle it's a full page ad.

3. while I respect her for serving
I am sick to death of hearing about her. All the soldiers I know don't ever want to hear her name again. They feel she was given too much attention and money/donations while other POWs and families of deceased soldiers were basically ignored.

5. Me too.
There are many infantrymen that went through much worse than Lynch. It was sad to see the Pentagon lose whatever credibility they ever had under this corrupt administration. I remember that black one-star that told about the firefight going in and going out of the Lynch rescue. He knew he was lying or did not have complete information. This administration has hurt the military more than most people know.

4. Excellent reminder, Must_B_Free

Let's never forget the way they denigrated the service of Jessica Lynch, much in the same way they now attempt to denigrate the service of John Kerry and his compatriots.

Their greed and lust for power knows no bounds.

6. When bu$hco could no longer use her
and when she could no longer cooperate they discredited herand dropped her like a used rubber.

She is probably more couragous on her home turf then she was even on the war front. Don't dismiss her. She could help.
