Back in a time when bin Laden was still Wanted -- Dead or Alive ...
In an invincible era when Republicans were "spiking the football" at every opportunity
-- America was told the iconic story of Jessica Lynch, for weeks on end, it seemed.
About how this injured soldier, captured in the heat of battle, who was being held in squalor and forced to endure being "tortured by the enemy";
About how America's brave soldiers pulled off a daring midnight raid, to rescue PFC Lynch from the evil-doers intending her harm -- just in the nick of time, too.
Only one small problem with all that congratulatory chest-thumping on behalf of the Cheney-Bush spin-machine,
it later turned out that much of the story we were told about Jessica Lynch, turned out to be untrue ...
Oops.
