Pity her?
I cant pity her for what she did.
I didn't agree with Bruce's title, either, but I suppose he is making the point that there isn't one American citizen who would trade places with this woman, now or ever! She certainly dug herself one hellova deep hole and will live in it for the rest of her days. She will never be forgiven.
This can't be looked upon as a matter of "youthful indiscretion!" She wasn't a teenager. She was in her mid to late '30's.
Those tapes of her clapping her hands together like a child on a pony, when she's sitting on that anti-aircraft gun, gleefully absorbing all of the attention she is receiving, while slandering our troops.........those images will forever haunt her, and they are burned into the memories of the men whom she betrayed.
I'm sorry, but I agree with those who passionately say, here on FR and elsewhere, that they will never forgive her.
As a private citizen and a civilian, but a deeply patriotic American, frankly, I can't ever forgive her, either.
