08/18/2005: "Cindy Sheehan and Her Political Diatribe"

Listen to what Cindy Sheehan has said. This is copied directly from Drudgereport. Please excuse the profanity, I left the quote intact.

"We are not waging a war on terror in this country. We’re waging a war of terror. The biggest terrorist in the world is George W. Bush!"

So declared Cindy Sheehan earlier this year during a rally at San Francisco State University.

Sheehan, who is demanding a second meeting with Bush, stated: "We are waging a nuclear war in Iraq right now. That country is contaminated. It will be contaminated for practically eternity now."

Sheehan unleashed a foul-mouth tirade on April 27, 2005:

"They’re a bunch of fucking hypocrites! And we need to, we just need to rise up..." Sheehan said of the Bush administration.

"If George Bush believes his rhetoric and his bullshit, that this is a war for freedom and democracy, that he is spreading freedom and democracy, does he think every person he kills makes Iraq more free?"

"The whole world is damaged. Our humanity is damaged. If he thinks that it’s so important for Iraq to have a U.S.-imposed sense of freedom and democracy, then he needs to sign up his two little party-animal girls. They need to go to this war."

"We want our country back and, if we have to impeach everybody from George Bush down to the person who picks up dog in Washington, we will impeach all those people."

Part of the same speech is quoted below.... (one of many sources for this)

"'This country is not worth dying for.' If we're attacked, we would all go out. We'd all take whatever we had. I'd take my rolling pin and I'd beat the attackers over the head with it. But we were not attacked by Iraq. We might not even have been attacked by Osama bin Laden if 9/11 was their Pearl Harbor to get their neo-con agenda through . . ."


Here is my opinion. She is a nut-job and a tool. She is a tool of the radical liberal machine. The insanely liberal media has nothing better to do than report on the radical, politically motivated, heartless, and gutless woman who is using her own son, one of America's heroes who volunteered (we do have an all-volunteer Army correct?) for military service, volunteered to re-enlist after the war started, and volunteered for the rescue mission that ended tragically.

She can grieve, she can mourn, she can even question the war and the manner we entered it that got her son killed, but don't become a political tool. Don't lose touch with reality, and your own family, when you climb on a soap-box with conspiracy theories, and hate speech while waving your dead son's picture in the air. Her own family has asked her to stop, and her husband has just filed for divorce. When will she get the hint?

This woman has some serious hate issues and needs counseling.

I won't pretend to know how she feels, and hope that I am never in a situation where I have lost a child, but that does not give her the right to say the crazy things she says she believes: It is her son, and the men and women who serve in our military that gives her that right. Since we all must endure her hateful rantings via the liberal media, I hope that she is aware of that fact.
