I don’t think anyone here should deify Ms Logan. Do an internet search and add words like affair, home wrecker and slut and see what comes up.
She could be the sleaziest person in the world, but if she’s willing to tell me the truth I’d take her above any other reporter.
Somebody just commented about Joran Van Der Sloot impregnating a woman while on an unsupervised visit - saying that the more heinous the crimes against women, the more women line up to bear his children. It’s way past time that real feminists heard what Obama’s pals have been up to, and that an Islamist America under Obama and the Muslim Brotherhood would make anything Mitt Romney would do to “slow down” women seem like a walk in the park.
The world needs to hear what Lara Logan is saying, and I’m thankful that she has the guts to say it. They say a conservative is a liberal who’s been mugged. Maybe Lara is undergoing some re-thinking now that will affect the whole rest of her life. 180-degree turnarounds are definitely allowed - thank GOD!
Liberal females are staggeringly naive when it comes to their true vulnerability in the rest of the world.
For the last 20 years I’ve been reading out exchange students, Peace Corps volunteers, vacationers, reporters, etc. going to help the poor 3rd worlders, only to be summarily raped as soon as they arrived.
Sadly, many of them feel a deep obligation not to report it, so as not to cast their cause or pet 3rd worlders in a bad light.
There was one such lefty-student program for college women that came to light a few years ago. For over a decade, every young woman that arrived was taken to the head office and raped the moment she arrived. And not one of them wanted to report it back to the program.
Leading from behind...that might mean something totally off the wall to a down low Chicago guy. I think it means taking Islam up the poop shoot.
Thanks for pointing out the asinine extreme.
Just as an experiment I am gonna compile a diverse list of 50 famous women and spend an evening Googling their names combined with “home wrecker” or “slut”.
Very curious what I will find.
Lara Logan may have had a radical awakening. She had months to recover and rehabilitate her reason.
Seems in that time she has opted to step up, step out and speak truth to power, from a precarious perch— network news.
Now, what will she do with her vote in the wake of her demonstrated courage of going against the media tank, in it for Obama? Yikes.
Okay, I googled “Cyman, affair, home wrecker, slut” and got 3,850 results!
Ugh. You are right. She's immoral and a slut. At least she's telling the truth, and not allowing herself to be bought off..this time.
Joe Burkett was a soldier from Texas. Let me say, I'm ASHAMED of him for chasing after this piece of cheap tail.
What can you expect from a liberal woman, though, except they're no better than they should be, as the saying goes? IMO, most of our RINOs have been ruined by their liberal, immoral wives, second wives...third wives.
Yup. I don’t think you get to be a liberal reporterette without being a whore.
Which makes all of them utterly stupid.
She is not being deified. No woman anywhere deserves what she went through at the hands of Islamic animals.
My previous post in case you missed it:
What we are facing with militant islamonazism is a world wide guerilla war.
Not all muslims support Bin Laden and his ilk. Most would prefer to not live in the 7th century. They should be recruited as allies.
I began studying guerilla warfare in 1966. Our efforts in this very long war have been noble, but we must continually improve our strategy and tactics. Our actions should be effective while spending the minimum in blood and treasure.
My suggestions:
1. Declare war on islamonazi IDEOLOGY and LEADERS regardless of what they call themselves, what country they live in, and what citizenship they hold. I mean a real Declaration of War by both houses of Congress and signed by Pres. Romney. This allows us to go after the enemy EVERYWHERE. The terrorists know no boundaries and neither should we.
2. Expand our cultural options and do as they do in the Middle East: Employ assassins and spies.
In any guerilla war, the best man to send after the guerilla is a local boy who knows the culture, language, etc. and can blend in. If we can take out Ahmadinejad and 40,000 of his followers at a rally in Tehran with a MOAB...cool. If we send a single mercenary to poison an imam in Saudi Arabia...very cost effective.
Take out the imams (Enemy Leadership) and the people who finance them (Logistics). Let them know there is a price to be paid.
3. Exploit inter-tribal warfare, national rivalries, and local feuds. We have been fairly successful with this strategy so far. We need to enshrine it as a pillar of our strategy.
4. Capture should be preferred over killing the enemy. In accordance with the Geneva Convention, POWs can be held until hostilities are over which, in this war, means NEVER! Jihadis don’t fear death, but they fear a lifetime of cruel incarceration and interrogation. Our enemies must know that when captured, THEY ARE NEVER GOING HOME AGAIN.
I suggest using private contractors who are paid to incarcerate the jihadis and extract intel from them while never disclosing where they are kept. They cannot be freed if no one knows where they are. How about a converted tanker sailing far from sea lanes?
5. When possible, capture the families of jihadis and put them in shelters for abused spouses and children. Once again, DO WHAT THE ENEMY FEARS MOST.
Jihadis fear losing religious and ideological control of their women and children. If it strikes fear into their hearts, it is a DETERRENT BETTER THAN DEATH.
6. In the long run we need to bring muslims into the 21st century. The young people are restless. We need to ally ourselves with the leaders (cultural, religious, and political) who want to bring their people out of darkness.
There are alternatives such as genocide. However, even Machiavelli, who had much wisdom to teach, would counsel that it is a bad idea to kill off your allies or sell them out. It ruins your reputation as a country.
Looking back at other wars that went badly in the beginning, e.g., WWII, we need to have vigorous debate over the right course of action in this war.
I am all for constructive critique of our past efforts while respecting that our soldiers and leaders, e.g., Rumsfield, did the best they could.
So to you, quoting what someone says is deifying them.
You certainly have a low bar for deification.
What is your bar for mere sainthood?
A conservative is a liberal who's been raped.
This isn't just any guerilla war; it is a religious war, one that currently employs guerilla tactics in some places, terrorism in others, and full frontal assault where they think they can make it work... Hence, it is an all-out total war, at least on their part. To defeat them, means to defeat every single one of them to the depths of they tortured psyches. I do agree with you on one thing: do it for as little money as possible.
My solution: destroy the faith by ridicule of its supposedly invulnerable central icon, the Kaaba. Send a B2 from the central US, and carpet bomb it... with pigs. Dead pigs everywhere. Photograph the hell out of it. Then, amid all the screaming, wailing, and global outcry, give them 24 hours notice to get out of town. Make it really clear. Then level Mecca, completely, not a single standing stone. Show them what power means.
Then, and only then, invalidate Islam for ever. Expose the lie that is the Koran with the archaeological data (that Yemeni copy would do nicely). Teach them the vacuity of their faith. Leave them empty and defeated.
Then send missionaries to save them from their damned existence.
I think there are practical limits to what we can do in this war. Our own people would not accept bombing Mecca.
The first step is to educate our own people in the West that there IS a war.
As for totally destroying islam, I do not think it is reasonable. When religions are attacked, they sometimes get stronger and more fanatical.
Islam will be harmed more by drugs, sex, and rock’n’roll. Give them free HBO. Lady Gaga will do more than a fleet of B-2s.
