I know Kari. I talk to her. She doesn’t know WHAT to think. She—unlike so many other people, whether in the Army, in Afghanistan, in the media, in the White House, and sadly on this very site—she wants to wait and see what actual FACTS come out. The stuff being “reported” by the media; even the noxious leaks from the Army (which, by the way, are illegal); we don’t even know are true and not made up or embellished by a reporter aiming to keep Obama spotless in this—isn’t gospel! How can a FReeper doubt the media over one story (say Trayvon or Obama’s BC) and yet take every thing they say in another—this story—as ultimate Truth?
I’m not even saying don’t believe it, but take everything you hear with a HUGE grain of salt and understand that a similar case, the Haditha “massacre”, turned out to be anything but. And yes, women and children were killed in Haditha.
Kari is devasted by what Bobby is accused of! But keep in mind he is accused, and no trial has begun, and until that time, Kari chooses to believe in his innocence. It’s all she CAN do.
What would you have your spouse do, if you were accused? What would you do if your spouse was accused?
Keep in mind, since before that day (11 Mar 2012) they’ve only spoken for a few minutes on a monitored phone call.
Please don’t misunderstand me. I was a fearing you were revealing too much info about her personal beliefs. If you are really her friend please do not put her on front street. Protect her. I told you how I feel. I’ve told everyone on this forum from the time I joined WHY.
I’m not anonymous. I’m NOT afraid.
THEY destroyed me once.
I won’t let it happen again.
I caught Kari’s interview this morning. I thought she did very well, despite what some of the naysayers bleated about “Today” and Lauer and what not.
I feel sad for Bales and his family. I don’t trust this WH, it’s motives and I think it would turn on us. Hopefully, we’ll find out the facts but with this anti-American media, they’ll cover up but good.
