Yep. That’s it.
Now, go away.
Could cause some heated dinner-table discussions at the Clintons' ...
Assuming Bill and Hillary still live in the same house and eat at the same table ...
“No sympathy for an arrogant and terminally dumb woman who thought her CBS pass was an important credential.”
WOW! You should be ashamed of yourself...... Why? Newbie.
Good on ‘ya, governor. (Wish I would have extrapolated THAT one.)
Interesting the words Muslim or Islam don’t appear in the story. She talks like any group of men may just turn into a raping machine at any time.
They’re savage animals. Eventually we’ll have no other choice but to put them down accordingly - en masse. It’ll be us or them.
Regardless of her arrogance and stupidity, no one should have to endure such abuse. I'm pretty sure that you didn't mean that she deserved it, but that is the way the statement will be spun by FR's detractors.
You don’t send a gorgeous woman like Lara Logan to report on a riot. You send someone that looks like Andrea Michell. No self respecting rapist would get near anyone as repulsive as Michell.
Gee, let’s see...maybe gloating about a woman being raped and /or abused sexually by 200 madman is not cool?
Okay, I was just about to rip you a new one, until I read this:
“Before the assault, Ms. Logan said, she did not know about the levels of harassment and abuse that women in Egypt and other countries regularly experienced. “I would have paid more attention to it if I had had any sense of it,” she said”
I'm sorry but this really p*sses me off. How can a foreign reporter not know the abuse that those women endure?
I think it was more like she didn't care until it happened to her.
Just imagine the 300 guys in Tahrir Square .... “hey, I hit that”.
Send more, please.
Was this at a McDonalds?
Perhaps it was at a Moslem-Egyptian Day celebration.
“How can a foreign reporter not know the abuse that those women endure? “
Maybe she only hangs out in Western hotels and truly wasn’t around the bad elements.
People need to cut her slack over this experience. She went through a horrific thing.
From grade school through J-school, she's been propagandized to believe that ABCNNBCBS are the source of all news; since coverage of anything embarrassing to Islam is severely limited from those sources, she never heard about it.
Never underestimate the ignorance of liberals - yes, even media types.
For the record though, many comments in this thread are absolutely disgusting.
The hatred on display is almost islamic in character...
Liberal jourbilists, like all elitist liberals, are not guided by facts, but upon prejudiced feelings. They cannot tolerate the cognitive dissonance experienced when squarely facing reality, so they feel obliged to block out from their consciousness as well as their reporting any negative views which reality presents when it concerns their favored social groups. (My posts #52 and #53 were intended to draw parallels to pathologies exhibited by certain favored American social groups which are also blocked out by liberal elites.)
On September 11, 2001 the liberal elites added the Islamic world to their list of favored social groups. It is no wonder that a liberal elitist jourbilist would be oblivious to Islamic misogyny. These Islamic bon sauvages are not white, Christian conservatives, so how could they be anything but wonderful?
Gee, let’s see...maybe gloating about a woman being raped and /or abused sexually by 200 madman is not cool?... Was she? Certainly not reported, only suggested. Raped? Sexually abused by fingers? What are the facts? Oh, she is the MSM so we need only know what is reported?
Ya, it could have, and has happened happened in Central Park or in any city in the US too.
Over the years millions of American women traveled to Egypt as tourists and some even on business. I know a woman who went in and out of Egypt regularly on business, and never had a problem or a complaint.
This woman from CBS walked into a situation of civil unrest where any pretense of authority had broken down and the animals in that situation took advantage. She was with a crew and had a security detail. That didn't make a difference when there was a mob operating with a mob mentality.
That is what anarchy looks like
I feel bad for her... and for Egypt. It was once a place that at lest had a hope of joining the 21st century, but I fear that the animal mob, fired up by their Friday "prayers" in the Mosques are intent on taking it back to the barbarism of the 7th century.
I think that some conservatives may be angry at the left’s refusal to accept reality. Lara Logan is a leftist, and in no way *deserved* her brutal mistreatment at the hands of “human” garbage, but it’s maddening to contemplate that most other one-world socialists will learn nothing from this. Bob
