So you have no problem allowing women to die for their country, you just don't want to appreciate them for it.

I have a problem when several soldiers die in a tragedy and the one soldier left to tell America what happened decides it's time to cash in. How much of that cash is going to the victims families? Why are they less deserving of the million bucks?

You can dance around and cloud the situation with gender isssues but I don't have any hang-ups about it. It's terrible that this former soldier isn't showing her appreciation for the heroes that rescued her.

Don't be too hard on poor (?) sweet Je$$ica. You see, she couldn't remember anything that happened. She couldn't remember the people that risked their lives for her. What's that? 1 Million Dollars??? Yeah, yeah, I guess I can remember after all......

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for legalized prostitution. But I don't call it something it aint.

Number 3 Loser and others need to get real girlfriends and stop worrying about sticking up for poor little Je$$ica. The truth is, she seems the type that wouldn't give them the time of day. Not even if they saved her life. Well, unless they could bring the CASH.

So are you going to hold Franks to the same standard?

How much of that cash is going to the victims families? Why are they less deserving of the million bucks?

Should Franks redistribute his income also?

You brought it up, I didn't. Now you have to live with the fact that you revealed what you're really angry about...that she's female.

It's terrible that this former soldier isn't showing her appreciation for the heroes that rescued her.

So she should be a slave to them for the rest of her life? You keep saying that Lynch was just doing her job and shouldn't be appreciated for her sacrifices. Why should the rescuers be appreciated? They were just doing their job also. You are inconsistent in every way.
