It could be worse. What might the Chung do to her?

[Lijahsbubbe]

It has the personality of an angry piece of cardboard! LOL

[SylvainSylvain]

From what I've read she's said that any profit that comes from any of this will go to the children of her friend who was killed in the ambush.

[Lost Highway]

She is setting the record straight by saying, in effect: "look, don't make me into something I'm not. I never fired my weapon or fought with anybody. All I did was survive a terrible ordeal."

The only way to accomplish that is to do a primetime interview while hawking a book?

[mass55th]

"People make assumtions all the time in their everyday lives. For you to deny that shows how far you have to go to support your points."

That's fantastic! I just can't get over how you know every thought in a person's mind and every feeling in their body. You've never met me, yet you know me better than I know myself! You must be psychic. Maybe you ought to write a book. God knows where it could lead...television interviews, a movie made about your life, not to mention the money to be made. I really think you're wasting your talents on FR.

Geez, from dissing the Iraqi who supposedly helped her to this, this Jessica Lynch thing is starting to get nasty. Too bad.

You are so right Hillary's Folly!! She is beginning to make me wish that we hadn't videoed her rescue! This girl needs paddled!!! Ungrateful.

The Iraqi meeting story was a lie because CNN didn't mention that Lynch said she would meet him later. The headline of this article is a lie because it's quoted out of context. Be careful what you read in the liberal media!

I'm thinking more about the dozens and dozens of prime time interviews, books, and movies that will never transpire as a result of her telling the truth about her orderal and not playing the role of "hero" that they all wanted her to do. If she played their game she could have rode the horse of feminist-hero off into the sunset of wealth and fame forever.

With her severe injuries and mental scars she will need the money this book will generate. She did, after all, suffer a severe spinal injury, broken arms, thighs, ankles and head injury. Not to mention the fact she was a POW, got anally raped while still broken and bleeding, and saw her comrades die.

I stand corrected!! Thank you!

Maybe we'll learn the context when the interview is played tomorrow. Thanks for having an open mind.

Jessica Lynch has angrily accused the Pentagon of using her for propaganda. The 20-year-old private, portrayed as a female Rambo after she was captured by Iraqis during a blazing gun battle, then freed by American troops, told ABC there was no reason for her rescue from an Iraqi hospital to be filmed.

Rumsfield installed hundreds of reporters amongst the troops to counteract our liberal lying media. How does she miss that.

In this sick world where evil is good and good is evil, it is sad that public support needs to be swayed when 300,000 dead bodies riddle the countryside.

We must blame this girl's ignorance of evil on the LIBERAL schools that indoctrinated her and her parents.

This ought not be so! Put the standards back in our schools and courthouses, where currently perversion replaces righteousness.

God have mercy on this foolish generation. Evolution taught as fact has turned their minds from Your truth.

LOL (Scary!)

Really? Where did you read/hear that? Are you sure you heard her correctly? (Asking because I've read a lot about her but that's something I've never heard before.)

[bondserv]

DUH!

Rumsfield = Rumsfeld

[johnb838]

I believe that, like Shock & Awe, the Jessie Rambo story was invented by the media and later blamed on the military when it proved to be untrue.

It amazes me that people here are STILL bashing her when she states publicly that she doesn't consider herself any kind of hero and that she's been used. And that she should shut the hell up. The person that said that apparently must think that she has been talking. She hasn't said a WORD publicly until the Diane Sawyer interview which hasn't even aired yet. And the book seems to me to have been chosen because it's the best way for her to tell her story without someone elses spin.

Feminists demand the right of OTHER women to be sexually assaulted and killed.

[johnb838]

She says there was no reason for it to be FILMED, moron.
