Female prisoners of Saddam Hussein less than equal

This author needs to pay attention. Lori Piestewa is not listed as MIA, she is KIA. Lori was one of the 11 bodies removed from the hospital site where Jessica Lynch was being held. I wonder what else in the story she messed up.

Dammit! Don't let facts get in the way of symbolism!

[T Lady]

Valid point.

It's so convenient to blame Pres. Clinton for everything

That's because he usually IS to blame ... but that being said ... it IS time to change the barbaric practice of putting women into combat zones. They DON'T belong there

[Jalapeno]

agreed.

[T Lady]

That would involve ridding the Pentagon of all the careerist desk jockeys who are afraid to stand up to the feminists' bullying.

female prisoners

[clamper1797]

It does NOT have to be done all at once nor does it have to happen with a lot of "noise" ... just start quietly gradually ... "conveniently" stationing women farther and farther away from harms way

[SMEDLEYBUTLER]

Schlafly probably wrote the column last week before Piestewa was confirmed as KIA. The editor should have done his/her job or had Schlafly rewrite the piece before publishing it.

Good article...Although it did not mention that Lori was actually KIA.She had 2 children ages 3 and 4,a boy and girl.I think she was a single Mom,but she may have just been a divorcee.Extremely sad situation.
Feminists are fanatics.They are out to achieve a personal agenda only.I had a talk(argument) with one who told me that because I was a conservative married female,i was allowing my self to be a "brainless sexual slave to men".She also said a bunch of other really awful things that I won't repeat here.
She was a real looney tune...Makes me wonder what happened to these people to make them so twisted.
Maybe they were dropped on their heads as babies, or possibly ignored at the Prom???

[T Lady]

And just what does your feminist friend call people like Julianne Moore, Jessica Lange, or Susan Sarandon, who have all had children by their live-in-lovers?

Oh, I know. They're strong, independent women.

"Oh, I know. They're strong, independent women"

LOL!! Actually yes.Somehow women like those are not included with the rest of us.Such a double standard with these types.She also thinks that stay at home mothers are "lazy prostitutes."
She told me that stay at home mothers pay their way by "performing" for the husband whenever he wants so she won't have to work.She's really insane.

P.S. she is by NO means a friend of mine.

[PistolPaknMama]

because I was a conservative married female,i was allowing my self to be a "brainless sexual slave to men".

This kind of thought just baffles me. Why do these women think ALL women should be like them, compete with men, take over company, get captured in combat, have an abortion once a year. They see stay-at-home moms who adore their husbands as wallflowers and subjugated. They just can't comprehend that this is a choice many women make. I have no problem with what the competitive Penis Envy crowd want to do with themselves, but I also have a right to my choices as well. So Tracy, just tell your feminazi friend we said "shut up." :-)(And you stick to your guns!)

What about Shoshana Johnson? Was she among the dead, or still MIA?

[Tatze]

She is still and was always listed as POW. She showed up on Iraqi TV with the other 6 confirmed POW's. Their current status is unknown, especially considering this thread: Marines find bloodstained U.S. uniforms.

[skeeter]

This is not only a tragedy for Johnson, it is a humiiation for the United States and a step backward for civilization. No crisis or threat requires our government to send mothers of 2-year-old babies across the seas to fight brutal terrorists.

Mothers, daughters, sisters. Bottom line.

[T Lady]

Duly noted; just a mere figure of speech ;-)

...This woman DOES sound like a candidate for the men in the Good Humor suits.
