Our dear little blonde is safe!

The national spasm of emotion over the capture and subsequent rescue of missing Pvt. Jessica Lynch has gone to a new level with the news that Hollywood producers are already planning a TV movie. I am so fucking tired of hearing about this girl who didn't do anything except get captured and fortuitously survive. Meanwhile, her colleague in the unit, Shoshanna Johnson, is still missing, and do we hear a peep about her? Says a lot about the relative values this society puts on a 19-year-old blonde chick vs. a 30-year-old black woman.
