Is Jessica Lynch is a traitor? |
|
She isn't supporting the army and her fellow soldiers. Her job as a soldier is to follow orders and not question her superiors. If they say 'jump', you say 'how high?'. If they say 'kill', you say 'how dead?'.
All I can think is that she is no longer a hero, she's now an enemy of the Bush administration and therefore, America.
right?

1. She's already served her symbolic purpose |
|
The Administration used her; what she says now doesn't matter one bit to them.

2. First, she's no longer in the military. . . |
|
so her opinions are those of a private citizen. And second, why do you perpetuate the fiction that a modern soldier's job is to blindly follow orders without question? If anything was learned from the Nuremburg Tribunals it is that a soldier's primary responsibility is to be true to the dictates of his own conscience. Therefore, all assertions to the contrary, and especially that soldiers and citizens should never question the uses to which they are put, perpetuates the concept that the individual is not responsible for his actions, and gives succor to those who place the State over the individual.
That said, elperomagico has characterized her purpose well: She was abused and used and what she says now can be conveniently ignored.

4. That excuse is getting as old on these boards. . . |

as "taken out of context" is when used by moronic Congresscritters.

6. Excuse for what? Good commentary on ... |
|
..the idiot hypocrisy of the White House and its "you either support us or you're a traitor" bit?
She didn't support their line. According to them, she must be a traitor. I think that's a good post to make.

she probably enlisted at the orders of her pinko-homo-tree hugging-vegan-islamo-abortionist handlers.
i left out the audobon society, but they might well have a hand in this.

time for massive doses of LSD and shock treatment. Look out Jessica, the men in white coats are coming to cure your relapse.
I think the straw that broke the camel's back was when they said that she was sodomized, but just doesn't remember it. That was a little too much to ask of her to go along with. "Private Lynch, tell them you got plooked by several swarthy fellows."
