How do they know this? Are there witnesses? Now that pisses me off. You couch commandos doubt the heroism of this woman? You question her motives? How dare you?

What is your problem? You think she broke her own legs so she could get her name in the paper? You're a disgrace.

Jessica Lynch's doubters have less testosterone than she does.

What a loser. You got problems with women in combat? Well, so do I, but it doesn't mean that they don't give it their best just like anyone else.
Let's see... the Iraqis were clearly trying to take POWs, yet she ended up with multiple gunshots, a broken leg, and stab wounds...
Seems pretty likely that she was fighting back! Did the other members of her unit look like they had been similarly injured when they were shown on TV?
Way to go soldier!

"
The report said the information about Lynch's ordeal was based on battlefield intelligence which officials said came from monitored communications and from Iraqi sources in whose reliability has yet to be assessed."
From the available evidence, you stand the chance of making yourself a fool.

Don't mess with Texas and now - don't mess with them hilbilly women! This woman - not a girl - was probably raised around firearms, so she probably knows how to handle herself. Though I do not like using phrases like the one I am about to use, I think it is appropriate in this case. You go girl!!! I'm glad they got her out of there and I am more than proud that she handled herself with honor. Probably more than what I would have done.

"

She (Lynch) hasn't been heard, by any of us, to have said anything.
Why are you rambling on?
Get a grip.
