Whoa, I never knew she was left behind. That is just wrong. If she might have been still alive, I would've checked.

I agree that she is a "pretty faced, girl next door type, that plays well to the media" and that she has become America's "Little Darling". The Bush administration is playing it for all that it's worth because there is just nothing else to boost troop moral. Notice how the people that actually DIED fighting get less attention than the people who just rescued from capture? Jessica gets a big parade and is all over TV. Every day or so a US soldier dies in Iraq, but none of them get parades or a lot of media coverage.
