Some are even questioning whether she was rescued or, actually, was released by the Iraqis.

Yeah, as if that's in the Iraqi character . (I haven't heard any negative comments. )

God bless Jessica Lynch, and those who risked their lives to save her! Before this war is out, we will hear tales that will make us understand that heroes truly walk among us - and that the spirit of America is alive and well.

God help those still behind enemy lines. May they be saved as well.

"Seagull Brigade"

Now that's funny! Did you make that one up yourself?

Because they hate the US, despise anything Bush, are rabid xenophobes with some antisemitic tendencies, and are as virulent as any member of ANSWER.

That is the truth about the Paleocons.

No, it's a takeoff on "Seagull Manager" (someone with an MBA who flies in to your office, makes lots of noise, craps all over everything you're doing, and flies back out).

Oh, this is good. So really there all kinds of seagull-fill-in-the-blanks out there. :) The possibilities are endless.

I hereby bestow upon Jessie the rank of Honorary Texan. We'd be proud to have her.

Some of FR's "Seagull Brigade" (Fly in, make a lot of noise, crap all over everything, fly back out) have been spreading all manner of rumor about her. The worst of the bunch have been getting ZOTted for their trouble.

Folks should just leave her be. Those that have spread rumors should re-direct their focus on those still missing.

OH! You're talking about paleoconservatives. Yes, they hang out with Libertarians don't they? Or perhaps they are a subset of Libertarianism? I went over to Yahoo to search paleocons and a freerepublic thread titled "What is a Paleoconservative?" showed up.

I think deep down it's mostly from people who are deeply insecure about the notion that a 19 year old girl might be tougher and braver than they'll ever be.

My post here is appropriate

Indeed. The St. Crispin's Day speech from Shakespeare's Henry V, ending with:

"And gentlemen in England, now a-bed
Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day."

The old boy did have a way with words.

Just type "Frum" into your "search" box. You'll find about a dozen threads.
