poor bethany berry

[sniffa]

:cry:

But the person who really caught my attention was a woman named Bethany Berry. Bethany is an 18-year-old who for a time this morning was guarding the pro-Bush campsite on her own while the other supporters were at work or attending to family affairs. Bethany’s father is John Berry, a chaplain with the U.S. Army Reserves and currently serving in Iraq. He has been in and out of the military since 1972. Bethany has spent her life migrating from one small Texas town to another in accordance with the responsibilities of her father’s work. She’s lived in Crawford the past two years.

Berry tells The Buzz, “I’m just here supporting my president. Before my Dad went to Iraq, he was the Methodist preacher for the town.”

Berry says the protestors have been mostly respectful of her and other Bush supporters. But all that changed recently. “One of them came up to me and started taking pictures. It kind of made me uncomfortable, but that’s their right. But the next day a group of them came up to me and said those pictures had been posted on the Internet and the protesters were making fun of my picture. It kind of shocked me. I almost wanted to throw up.”

13. W-A-R..we are right behind the president.. says it all

He was at the head of the coward line for Viet Nam, and he's still the head of the line for O.I.L (operation iraqi liberation)

Where ELSE would freeps be, except behind a coward..Supporting a loser-liar-cheating coward..holding him up..:puke:

4. her pic's not there though

[MrBenchley]

5. Funny...the only mentions I can find on Google

is her posing for pro-Bush propaganda...

And she doesn't seem at all shy about doing that...

8. yep

from what i can see of her pictures, i doubt anyone made fun of her Looks, which is impLied.

making fun of her being the onLy one at 'camp quaLLs' - yup.
i'd feeL bad too, if i was the onLy member of 'camp reaLity'

:rofl:

[MrBenchley]

10. You'll notice she's the only one in the photos....

Guess I'm overlooking all the liberals calling her a traitor, or saying her dad would be ashamed of her, or circulating private family information about her, or...

(snicker)

[elehhhhna]

21. Make fun of this: Ske LOOKS lonely.

[Dogmudgeon]

9. Wait until li'l Bethany rebels against Rev. Daddy

Short skirts, low-cut tops, a peace sign button, Black Eyed Peas and Phish CDs, lurid lipstick and a prescription for birth control pills that says "May Refill 12 times".

A copy of Robert Anton Wilson's Cosmic Trigger. A collection of illicit MP3s, and Anarchist/Marxist/PoMo literature downloaded from Gutenberg on her laptop computer. An art-student boyfriend who got her interested in LSD, Polyamory, Wicca, and Bondage.

Daddy's gonna need to get his dose increased.

Hoo, baby!

--p!

[Brewman_Jax]

11. Another one

of those who should enlist and REALLY support Bush's* war instead of being a cheerleader on the sidelines. She can also be near her father.

[GoBlue]

12. Be Brave Bethany

If Dad get's back, I'm sure he'll be proud that you 'almost wanted to throw up' when you were left, by other Bush supporters, to guard the pro-Bush campsite all my yourself.

14. hey, she makes the news a few times prior

15. damn, i couLdn't even get through the first 10 comments

y'see, micheLLe maLkin fans wouLd be right there with her, but they have jobs.

the Leftists across the street are getting paid to protest by moveon. :eyes:

[DemonFighterLives]

17. Yeah moveon pured money in

:rofl:

[DemonFighterLives]

16. Yeah, Bethany is all we talk about here

I feel sorry for her following the hateful ministry of dubby and being a ministers daughter no less.
When she wakes up,from her deluded past and tells the freeps to man their own bastion, the world will be a better place.
Bethany - run to the light!

[Libby2]

18. I guess if she can't take the heat

she ought to get out of the kitchen.

[pnorman]

19. "posted on the Internet and the protesters were making fun of my picture"

I have no intention of making fun of her --- she's out there in the hot broiling sun (It's 83.4 degrees there at this moment, and a predicted high of 101). That's helluva lot more than about 90% of all the other Freepers. But compare that whine against ... shotgun blasts overhead, convoys of speeding vehicles with horns ablast, jeerers chanting "We don't care!" while she's singing "America The Beautiful", a "patriotic" pickup mowing down her flags and other patriotic paraphanelia ... more to come. Poor girl!

20. indeed

i Like the comparison you made. :thumbsup:

[annabanana]

22. I hope we're making sure that she's got

something cold to drink and everything. Shame on them leaving a kid out there on her own like, like.. like the way they leave the troops hung out in Iraq with big stinkin targets on their backs.

(I know that the Casey crowd is a good hearted group)

[sniffa]

23. good hearted?

they made fun of the poor girL, or something.

i have a feeLing maLkin is gonna be aLL over those eviL, hatefuL, Leftists for picking on the poor girL. :cry:
