Lara Logan
Has our prayers and thoughts for a full and complete recovery.
Barbaric goddamned animals.
ths sends: And the misogynist bastards aren’t only in Egypt:
“Jesus Christ, at a moment when she is going to become a martyr and glorified we should at least remember her role as a major war monger”
Nir Rosen felt the need to use his Twitter feed to savage Logan from the safety of his NYU berth. There’s lots more in this vein before he attempts to erase it and start a piteous attempt at apology (“…joking with your friends gets out of line and makes you sound like a dick…“. I watched it play out until late last night.). Geraghty and a number of others have saved it ALL. Lucky, as it were, because, as of this morning, Rosen has scrubbed his Twitter account of his NYU affiliation and DELETED the entire thing.
Oh. And all his apologist friends are sending him heartfelt Twitter condolences on his self-inflicted plight, like, “If you only know Nir Rosen as a lout…“, “You said you were sorry!” and “Has Anne Coulter ever apologised?”
I’d like to pass along some info, should YOU be in a Twitter activist frame of mind. The category is #FireNirRosen and you can play along here:
Contact the NYU Center on Law & Security and tell them to fire Nir Rosen – cls@juris.law.nyu.edu – 212-992-8854 – #FireNirRosen
I adore Lara Logan, as I told Bingley last night when he texted. She’s a complete and utter badass, and has been totally supportive of our troops in the field and fiercely protective of them. Her takedown of Katie Couric over the Predator strikes last year was nothing short of magnificent. You’ll notice, for all those who thought of her as a screaming liberal (Bingley included), that THIS Rosen asshole refers to LOGAN as a “war monger”. And that’s why. Whatever her previous politics, her reverence for our military when she’s working with them and her honesty has earned her my respect and much affection.
I can only hope her FULL recovery is aided by her indomitable spirit, and that she’s soon well enough to take out all that righteous fury on some greasy Nir Rosen ass.
May all the horrors of Hell be visited upon those who harmed her so brutally and a myriad of blessings on the women who came to her aid.
Those girls will yet need protection from what may come.
UPDATE: Thanks to Dave’s heads up, a “Don’t let the door hit ya in the ass!” resolution that’s just delightful well deserved:

I still want her to open a can o’ whoopass on him. But I’m vicious like that.
