Are we Lynch bashers because we don't buy into the heroine BS. They perpetuated a lie and continue to do so.

Is being pinned under a truck a new definition of a hero/heroine?

One REAL hero is that young LT who orderd his men to point their weapons to the ground to assure an angry crowd the soldiers had no intention of destroying their Mosque. Of course, this was a guy and what the libs/feminists needed was a female heroine. The only problem is they forgot to include the doctors in their fabricated story of her being shot/knifed. Time to put this story to sleep. We have heroes dying every day in Iraq to whom we should give the honor of calling THEM heroes.

Flame away.

Re: the heroine BS.

With due respect, she laid her body on the line for my country.

How can I not honor that?

You do have a point about what constitutes a hero. I struggle with that myself. However, none of the hoopla surrounding Lynch was of her doing. I personally think she's done marvelously well with all the unasked-for attention that has come her way.
