I never said she was a media victim. We've always celebrated lives being saved.
Jessica Lynch isn't anyone's victim, and she totally used the media! She's just an opportunist. I don't thank her for spit. All she did was cause real heroes -- men whose names we never hear, and who get no movie or book deals -- to risk their lives on her behalf.
And I'll say again that you bashers are so attractive.
"Lynch-basher"?! So, now I'm a Lynch-basher?
Yep and yep.
I can no more be a Lynch-basher than I can be a Pres. Al Gore-basher.
I'm an Al Gore basher.
Jessica Lynch was no more a hero, than Al Gore was president.
Your subjective opinion.
When a fireman carries a woman out of a burning building, do you call the fireman the hero or the woman?
You guys are obsessed about the "hero" label. This is a thread about Miller, and you guys go into immediate Lynch bashing nearly drowning out any discussion about Miller. And then you complain that Miller isn't getting enough attention! lol
And if some idiot or group of idiots decide to turn the woman into a hero for doing nothing, someone who tries to set the record straight isn't a "basher."
She served in danger for others. There's a degree of heroism there. Because she was there maybe it saved 100,000 New Yorkers from being nuked. In today's Army every job is important.
Real heroes died, and others were wounded, and yet you ignore them, and instead salute the damsel in distress.
I don't post on military threads except for the threads where our soldiers are nitpicked. Lynch is nitpicked more than anyone.
Note that the real heroes are showing modesty, while the damsel is out selling herself.
So did Audie Murphy sell himself when he wrote a book?
Some people just can't handle the truth.
Some people can't be consistent.
Now that sums this thread up perfectly. It started with the title. Why can't some people pay tribute to Miller without tearing down Lynch? Why can't they even think about Miller without going into anti-Lynch hysteria?
