Jessica Simpson's missing Iraq footage

[dancingme]

JESSICA SIMPSON wants to know where missing footage of her and husband NICK LACHEY's harrowing trip to Iraq got to - because she thinks Americans would like to see just how bad conditions are there.

The pop singers-turned-reality TV couple travelled to the war-torn nation to visit US troops as part of a recent ABC TV variety special, and they were both left shellshocked by what they saw.

But all the controversial moments and harrowing footage of the trip didn't appear in the fun-filled TV show.

Simpson says, "It was unbelievable. They didn't show a lot of what really went on with the enemy attacks and the shelling. There was so much stuff that went on and somehow the tapes got mysteriously misplaced.

"It put everything in perspective for me. It really did teach me the definition of sacrifice. I can't even fathom being out there right now. I was ready to come home."

[andyhappy]

7. brains everywhere

Jessica Simpson, freedom fighter?

that is just nuts!

Is the White House going to smear her now?

[samsingh]

11. they can try, but i don't think they'll succeed

she's popular with a specific crowd. I don't think that will change.

[melissinha]

4. She has a heart!

She is allegedly a Republican hack, but this really shows the girl has a heart. But common, did she actually think the MSM would show that? Perhaps she thought that it would give her a boost, and was disappointed...

5. When Jessica speaks, America listens

'cause she's HOT

[samsingh]

Get real. And get a new prescription.

[samsingh]

[alcibiades_mystery]

29. Diagnosis:

You're cuckoo for coco puffs

[samsingh]

32. nope - i just have good taste.

[Gabi Hayes]

26. please...she looks like a Rumanian goat wrestler

her nose alone....

never mind

[MidwestTransplant]

6. I was hoping er thinking that it was different footage....

[MsTryska]

8. oh my....first talking back to the Talibornagains

and now speaking otu against media censorship?


i may have to revaluate my lack of respect for her.

[FreedomAngel82]

21. Yep

I'm glad she's speaking out about this. Goes to show how "liberal" the media is right?

[fooj]

9. Wow. She's off the Kool-Aid.

Welcome to our world, Jessica.


Peace.

[GreenPartyVoter]

10. Wow. I am regreting that I ever assumed she was another Brittany Spears

[samsingh]

13. one thing abougt the left

that makes us decent is that we are willing to forgive when people change their ways.

[fooj]

22. Yes, indeed.

Peace.

[Booster]

14. Can't you just hear the freepers now calling Jessica "one of them

Hollywood kind". I, too, have a little more respect for Jessica for speaking out about this - like it or not, she has a lot of followers.

[Parche]

15. JESSICA

"Enemy attacks"??? So Iraqi's are the enemy?

[long_green]

16. Wow. Sounds like Jessica is describing a war.

"enemy attacks and shelling." When the MSM tells us about casualties (from someplace other than Aruba) it is usually the result of IED's. You know, something sneaky. I'd love to know what she means by attacks. "Shelling" speaks for itself.

[malmapus]

17. Yeah. she scored a couple points with me for speaking about that

Totally caught me by surprise as well, may have judged her wrong as well.

[FreedomAngel82]

18. Good for Jessica!

This should show people that the media is hiding things from them.

[Tim4319]

19. Brittany Spears must of swiped it.

[WCGreen]

20. Ain't she one of them thar Dixie Lesbos

[dbonds]

23. Oh no

There goes the boxoffice for Dukes of Hazzard. Who else was going to see it but freeper types. Now Jessica will be labelled a traitor and they won't go see it.

[Juneboarder]

25. Go Jessica!!

It's always a breath of fresh air when I hear of celebrities going against the war machine and speaking their free minds. Hopefully she won't listen to her dad and leave Nick for her career. Possibly her father follows King W... cut off all ties when they hold you back, doesn't matter if it's a husbad, army soldiers, the USA population... as long as it benefits King W...

[girl gone mad]

27. She's said in interviews that her husband,

Nick Lachey (sp?) is interested in politics, perhaps even a political career and that he is a Democrat.

Maybe he's managed to talk some sense into her.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

30. "I don't know I think it needs more cow bell" n/t

[friesianrider]

31. She listens to Bill Maher...

I heard that in some interview that she always watched Bill's show on HBO. All this despite being from Texas and being a fundie as a kid (those good Christian values sure went out the window when Daddy Simpson realized he could make money on his daughter's breast size!)
