I'm gonna be sick

Shamelessly ripped off from en_ki (even using his words!):

Hey, cool, war is justification for unlimited evil!

This really, really makes me ill.

1) Are we sure she isn't a leftist plant to make the right look dumb?

2) No, this is wonderful. At the end she's ranting and raving about how she doesn't want to be "protected" from pictures of war violence. She writes, apparently having lost track of which side is supressing the media:

They protest when we've seen a single picture of a coffin; a young woman loses her job for taking a photo of several flag-draped coffins. C'mon people, I'm a big girl . . . Show me the pictures!!

It's not something I've longed to see, but this is what the enemy is counting on . . . that we Americans won't have the stomach for this kind of violence, and we'll call the whole war off.

I have wrestled with this for several days, because in my heart, I don't want to see another human being brutalized, nor do I want it held from me because I'm not strong enough to handle it.

Yes, it's easier to turn my head and deny this is happening, but I need to be confronted with the reality of this war . . . I do not want to become complacent . . . I need to be reminded every single day of the price we pay for freedom. Show me the pictures!

*Shrug* If she wants to do the left's work, she's more that welcome to!

No, I'm not certain she's not a Leftist plant... but if she is, she keeps it up well. Her other articles on that website are as crazy as that one. Check this out:

Osama bin Laden is beating the drum and moving in a little closer everyday. I can feel it, and if I sit still long enough, I can almost hear the drum beat.

She's welcome to assist in making the pictures public, yes, but it was her other statements in the article that make me ill. And for that reason I don't want her on "my side" regarding the pictures: her means don't justify my ends, either.
