Jill Carroll
Not sure what I think about Jill Carroll, following her recent television appearances and the articles currently appearing in newspapers around the country.
Not sure I believe a single solitary word she says. And boy, does she ever say a lot of them. In rapid-fire spurts of frenetic speech.
Good to know that at least she's finally admitting that those "tears", the hysterical sobbing that just looked fake from the get-go, were in fact fake tears. "Forced" to cry to save her life.
That must have been so horrible for her, forced to cry on cue, forced to watch Oprah (hey, that would be torture enough for anyone). Forced to eat chicken and bread. Forced to hang out with her kidnappers and help them make dinner. Forced to pal around with her kidnappers' kids. The inhumanity of it all is just indescribable...
And yes, I fully expect hate-comments for this post. I don't care. Women have been kidnapped in Iraq and beheaded. Beheaded. Dead. In a filthy, grotty basement or some dank cellar. Beheaded without a bite of chicken first, and without the torture of having to decide what to watch on the telly.
