There are military families surviving on food stamps, while living in poverty inside base housing that was built in the '20's, while one of their family members is making the ultimate sacrifice in Afghanistan (or wherever).

Did anyone see the family (on TV) who sold there home because they couldn't afford it any longer. The husband/father had been called to active duty in the reserves, and they can't survive on the pay. They are too proud to seek assistance from the govenment, and decided to sell instead.

Linda is losing her second home because she can't nail down a $100K job. Sorry, but we should keep things in perspective...

I believe Linda does not own the home in Virginia but is stayign there to avoid the public limelight. I I recall correctly, the home in Columbia, MD (a few miles from my home) is the only home she owns.

I was going to let it go, but...

Linda Tripp was in more danger than most American troops, and she served her country faithfully under extreme pressure. Do you forget about Hitlary's little uppercrust handmaiden hanging around, "befriending" Linda so she could monitor her and pump her for info? You have no idea what the Arkansas Mafia are capable of.

You don't think the lawless little Democrat scum that constitute the Maryland "legal" system would have had a nice little welcome planned for Tripp, had they been able to get her in their clutches?

And what's with OK'ing the Dem tactic of breaking your conservative opponents financially, if you can't get them any other way? The Pubbies should learn to take care of their own, just like the Democrats do.

Tommy the Commie and his Dem pals are playing for keeps. Politics is war, by other means.

Dallas, I love your efforts at captioning pictures, however this picture of Linda Tripp is far too complex for simple answers. For instance, a few months ago it was reported that she was living in someones garage apartment on a farm. The AP article mentions that she had her house rented, but that it is empty now. Those things taken in context are understandable. Out of context they lead to the kinds of things that are now being said about Linda.

Yesterday's heros remain just that. The public that benefited from Linda Tripp is now blithely coasting along looking for a newer hero.
