An example of propaganda creep.



Could go both ways. I remember seeing film of her sitting at the gun. Since
the 1980's when she "appologized", she's claimed she was photographed at
it, which implies still photos of her sitting there.

However photographed could mean filmed, and she never really addresses the issue
of firing the gun and at what if she did.

Considering the US was at war with North Vietnam at the time, that could be
considered "giving aid and comfort to the enemy", even if all she did was
sit at the gun, smile and let her picture be taken.

Next they'll have her commanding troops in during the Tet offensive.


May I quote you on that? I can make up a YouTube video, which will then be
quoted in blogsphere, who will be quoted in the paper press, which will
make the radio/tv press and be all over the place.

All I have to say now, is "as stated on the internet".
