it wasnt HER that screwed up. she was just part of it....and let me tell u...if that was ur sister or daughter or niece in her shoes, you wouldnt feel the same way, now would u? i'm damn proud of that girl. if that wouldve been me, i probably wouldve taken my own life before the U.S soliders even had the tip off of where i was. she deserved every bit of media attention she got. that was a girl MY age, just out of HS, like me, who, 1st of all, was not just in the service, she was actually fighting already....then she gets kidnapped by these animals and raped and beaten and God only knows what else. and she survived it. for YOUR country!! she didnt give up, because she was devoted and determined. she is one hell of a woman and i am so damn proud that there are woman, and men, like that fighting for our country. :usa: :bigok:

the only reason you give them :down: is because youre just tired of hearing about it. next time you make a jugdement like that, try to put urself in her shoes or her family's shoes...then maybe you'll look at it differently.
