What makes you trust Jessica Lynch so unquestionably? She has claimed that she doesn't remember what happened. If she suddenly remembers everything and writes a book, doesn't that strike you as at least a little bit suspicious? Doesn't the story already strike you as at least a little bit suspicious? Do you know that 'gullible' isn't in the dictionary?

ONE MORE TIME!!!

I would trust Jessica Lynch, being in the U.S. military, much much more than the liberal media.

Now do you understand?

It's a free world and you can disagree with what I think and vice versa.

Oh the truth is finally revealed. You don't trust the media because you think their liberal. I won't go into it but that argument has been soundly defeated many times over.

My guess is that even if Lynch came out and said that she was part of massive conspiracy by the Pentagon you would call her a liar because that contradicts your personal view of the world.

Uh, no. There are plenty of scumbag, white-trash types in the Army that would gladly lie their asses off for this kind of deal.

Exclamation

The Pentagon has refused to release the unedited version of their video footage.

What does that tell you, Laci?

And the funny thing is, Laci, as Evangelion says, I'd trust the unedited videotape before I believed a supposed amnesiac.

You know, this entire scenario is just so surreal. I keep expecting Oliver Stone to jump out from behind a studio set and yell "Hah! Gotcha again, suckers!!"

What horrifies me is that people actually believe the "hero" story against all the evidence! :banghead:

Default Laci, Honey you've been duped...

It's ok ... i just read in another thread where Dr Rick admitted he was duped into believing it was a "just war" for WMD's (say what) ...
A scumbag named Rove is sitting around thinking... he says "what we need George is a Hero" ...the wheels turn...and orders are find a "hero" ... Well nothing heroic has happened but the Pentagon needs put out some serious fires (this is the heroic efforts before your very eyes) ... The collateral up side is the muney grubbing media is gonna show case this story for the ratings ! (if they get it ... i'm not sure it's a done deal... Jessica is military property still).

And i am a Viet Nam Vet w/ PH A/Co 3rd/47th Inf Reg 2nd Brd 9th Inf Div, Mobile Riverine Force Mekong Delta Oct '67-Oct '68... i believe Jessica and Co were lost due to military snafu's, she was injured in the crash...the rest is White House Wash and Pentagon effluence... produced and directed to pull at your heart strings...tug tug

Default Answers to Questions---

Yes, Oliver Stone is the perfect one (liberal to the hilt) to want to make it a movie.
-----------
"The Pentagon has refused to release the unedited version of their video footage."
It only tells that there are things in there that are either Secret or Confidential. And not privy to the general public.
------------------
"What makes you trust Jessica Lynch so unquestionably?"
Innocent until proven guilty.
-----------------
"I'd trust the unedited videotape before I believed a supposed amnesiac." Amnesia is a temporary condition not a chronic disease. And as I said before. It is common when faced with a very traumatic event.
------------------
"Oh the truth is finally revealed. You don't trust the media because you think their liberal. I won't go into it but that argument has been soundly defeated many times over."
Everyone knows that most of our media slants towards liberalism. And reports to the contrary are also written by the media.
------------------
PS
Don't get your blood pressure up because of the things I say. There should be more people like myself on this forum for balance.

No. It tells us they won't release it.

Actually amnesia can be either. And if she was unconsious most of the time she can't have much to say. If she was consious on the other hand...

Appeal to belief fallacy.

Appeal to Belief is a fallacy that has this general pattern:

1. Most people believe that a claim, X, is true.
2. Therefore X is true.

Try again. And what exactly do you mean by liberalism? The views they advocate or the way they harass there guests as only liberals can?

I agree people shouldn't get there panties in a wad over words. Who's to say your position is the "balance" needed around here.
