well, with the 'flies, she was popular for a while because here was a strong, woman hero, anti-ing up and kickin' in in iraq. she wasn't whining or complaining about her lot in life at that point, she was just doing what she had to do, and was proud of it. and, frankly, we *all* needed someone to point to like that, who's a hero on the ground because s/he isn't complaining about a hard, bloody, dirty, nasty job. plus, she is a very good writer. that's always a plus :).

but this is just... insane. completely and utterly so. she called me a troll and a dipshit who just didn't get it today. prolly because i used *gasp* numbers on her... or maybe just because i called her a twit.
