Mohammed Odeh Rehaief, who the military credits with providing some assistance in the rescue of famed war hostage Jessica Lynch, visited the latter’s hometown on Monday. Unfortunately, Lynch was “unavailable” to see him:
“She has a lot of commitments of time, in terms of rehabilitation. . . . She works very hard at getting better,” said attorney Stephen Goodwin, Lynch’s spokesman. “She hopes to see him in the future. She’s very appreciative for the role he played in her rescue.”
Yeah, either that or she’s too busy working on her $1 million book and setting up other media engagements. It really takes a lot out of you being a celebrity rehabilitating these days.
Come on… he’s on his own book tour. It’s the American way.
Granted, he’s exploiting his 15 minutes too. But Lynch at could have at least made a brief photo appearance out of courtesy.
