The Big Lie Of Jessica Lynch

[malachi]

Here ya go, flame away.

A $1 mil book deal, zero memory of any "rescue" and the worst book you'll read this year.

1. No flame here, but that poor girl.

The Pentagon has completely screwed her over with its frenetic spinning.

[Skittles]

6. but that won't stop her from cashing in

while her peers are still being killed in Iraq. It is unbelievably sickening.

2. shit

read the captions on the photos

5. Pretty stupid, but at least they're on a par with the articles stupidity.

3. Sunday night, on WorldLink, a documentary will examine ...

the media spin of Jessica's rescue. On my DirectTV, it's channel 375, and it airs at 7:00 pm central standard time.

4. Getting lied to about EVERYTHING.........

Makes my teeth hurt. What a corrupt government we have.....every damn last one of them.....LIARS.It's enough to make you throw something....and puke buckets! :argh: :puke: :puke: :puke:

7. I agree that we now have more than a little taste of Soviet Life

And unfortunately, I don't really see how it's going to get anything but worse.

Yes, it's pretty creepy living every day inside the novel "Animal Farm".

Who is ghostwriting her book. Comrade Squealer? Comrade Minimus?

11. Oh, come on, you know Stenographer Sue will ghost write it

and it will be filled with lies, just like everything else that presstitute writes!

8. Not 'of' Jessica, 'about' Jessica

Let's not blame the victim for being exploited by the ghouls. She really was injured, and her experience included both severe pain and doubtless, given the propaganda, terrifying fear.

Her alternative was to blow the whistle. Who here would throw away well over a half-million dollars for the momentary satisfaction of setting the record straight to an uncaring world?

9. Woody Harrelson played Jessica Lynch in Wag the Dog

Bushies combined 'the girl with the kitty cat' and 'good ol shoe rescued POW' into Jessica Lynch

in Wag the Gulf II

10. I am here to say I am so ashamed

to have defended Rick Bragg during his recent NYT's disgrace. All his books I once owned are currently in the trash.

What an almond-joy moment: I feel like a nut.
