Agreed, which is why I just reported it as abuse.

Les Kinsolving needs a gold watch and a kick in the ass.
Has he no friends who will tell him he is the great fool of the White House press corps?

The headline, from what I can see, is inaccurate and I believe it's probably deliberate.
One of the reasons I gave up on WND some time ago as a primary news reporting source.

stupid question. The sad fact for POWs, male or female, they are subjected to sexual torture. A class act like Ari would never embarass them or their families by discussing this distasteful fact of war.

"The title is MADE UP from whole cloth." In fact, the more I think of this, the more it pisses me off. We need to freep Les Kinsolving for this.

Evidently the "left" is not the only "side" with liars who have access to the media.

Talk about scummy behavior. You're the scumbag, scumbag. It's because of people like you that she's suffering now.
I view the soldier (sister) as a woman who's life is now ruined because of a$$holes who tag along with leftist idiot policy. Like yourself. I find it pathetic for idiot-boys to rain on some reporter who simply questions the fact that this idiot policy (thought up by idiot-boys without a clue) is in place.
Good reporters should be asking why we're doing dumb things. Ef "Ari".

And exactly what does this issue have to do with anything but dredging up a 30 year old argument.
Just how can the modern military keep a woman from being killed or captured or raped and at the same time give them the rights and privileges that they demand.
You figure it out. Most other people are done with this lousy and long ago lost argument.
To: Dajjal
Seems sad that any journalist would stoop to such low levels.

When you call others "morons" it would be a good idea for you to have your facts straight. The lady in the picture is not captured.
To: AAABEST
Women should be NOWHERE near a combat situation. Though we now live in PC world, with PC jackasses who are afraid to rock the boat. Even if it means the degradation of our military and women suffering permanent and immeasurable harm.Blah blah blah.
Tell me how that salacious old loon's question going to help the family of Shoshana Johnson or any of the other POWs? How does that stop the memories of Rhonda Cornum from being publicized by Les Kinsolving?
Les is too damn chicken to find the parents of Shoshana Johnson and ask this question to their faces. No, he's got to plant in everyone's memory that Shoshana Johnson is probably going to be sexually brutalized by her Iraqi captors. In fact, Kinsolving probably is getting aroused by the question as I type.
I hope Les is right there when Shoshana Johnson comes home. I want him to ask her to her face if she was raped. And I want it well-publicized because the reaction of the people around her isn't going to be pretty.

Maj. Rhonda Cornum was captured and gang-rapedFrom everything I've read Cornum has always maintained that she was fondled not gang-raped. Wonder if Lester was working for Hearst when the Maine blew up.
To: Illbay
I support Ari and the President. There is no point in going over this. It does no one any good. I agree with you totally. It's enough to say that our troops are being mistreated or brutalized. To follow the rape line of questioning satisfies only our more prurient curiosity and degrades the victim. When male POW's are tortured, more often than not their genatalia are molested or brutalized. Yet, it is safe to say that reporters do not follow that line of questioning.

Hey I'm not the one brandishing this woman's picture in a disgusting effort to prove my non-existent point.
Now back to points. Since women in hazardious zones started in WWII do you think Patton was a PC moron?
And here's the saddest part. The woman captured WASN'T in a front line unit, she was in a backup maintentance unit. Asd for leftist idiot policy, my view on women in combat zones comes straight from my mother, a Viet Nam era Marine whom I garauntee can STILL outshoot you, out pummel you, and out drink you. People that have the will and the skill should be on the frontline. As has been pointed out, the gang rapes in Iraq aren't reserved for female prisoners, if we're gonna keep people out of the frontline because somebody might rape them then I guess we need to pull out of Iraq entirely, I'll let you explain to the Iraqi people why we're abandoning them... again.
Les didn't ask why anything. He was just gunning for sensationalistic headlines trying to increase his career by waving around tragic incidents. Not unlike yourself, which I guess is why you support him.

I have no admiration for Les as he believes in abortion and feels that it is a fetus up until birth even if the baby is delivered at 9 months of gestation. I recently heard him speak this and was greatly disappointed.
