Why is it nasty to tell the truth? I think everything she's saying is honorable. She's saying she is not the hero, the people who risked their lives to save her are the heroes. You don't agree with that?

[Hillary's Folly]

re-read my post. I did not say she was nasty but that the whole Jessica Lynch story was getting nasty. She disses the Iraqi and the Pentagon, others diss her. All of which to me looks nasty. I have no way of knowing whether there is something going on with the Iraqi man that makes what we've been told about him untrue. All I know is that there is a lot of uncertainy about everyone's story in this episode and the scuttlebut around it is, in my opinion, getting nasty. That an operation that originally brought pride to all of us has degenerated to this is, in my opinion, too bad.
