maintaining they trick naïve 18-year-olds with offers of money and scholarships.

Reprehensible. I'm so sick and tired of this shit from the left trying to infantilize the troops. These are NOT naive 18 year olds, these are adults who made an adults choice.

Yeah, they "support" the troops by turning their very real heroism to something to be ignored.

To the left, kids are adult enough to get abortions and birth control w/o parental consent, but too stupid to understand what joining the armed forces mean.

The saddest part is that she probably doesn't even remember her son. He's just another political pawn to her. And he's certainly a pawn to the vile scum she's being exploited by.

Our troops are brave adults. Liberals are the stupid children.

She continues to dishonor her son by saying he was too stupid to understand what he was doing when he enlisted and then reenlisted. What a skank.

Geoge Bush disgusts me, Cindy Sheehan hasn't sent thousands to war based on lies! Thanks Cindy, your voice is resonating and forcing Bush to provide some answers. The Kool-Aid gulpers can no longer tiptoe thru the tulips. The insurgents aren't in the last throes, as Cheney so blatantly lied about and the noble cause of the War on Error can't be explained by Bush or any ohter neo-con with a straight face. Fox News can no longer prop the puppetmaster up.

Largebill, I'm sure your mother is the skank. Why don't you prove how tough you are by signing up for the noble cause. You wouldn't last a day in Fallujah! Our military should be honored, but skanks like you deserve sympathy for being so pathetic. Until you have lost a loved one in a bogus war, you have no authority.

Eddy Johnson-That's a tired, old, repetitive and extrememly illogical arguement. We don't even bother to discuss those kind of attacks anymore because it says more about liberals than conservatives. And believe me it doesn't say anything good or positive about liberals.

Hey Eddy,

You disgust me, little boy.

I read the Sheehan speech some time ago and became aware of her extremism, but this flyer promoting her heroine (Stewart) is new to me. Yikes! There really isn't much pretense that can be drawn for endorsing such positions other than an advocacy for terrorism in Iraq.

She has burned the last vestiges of sympathy I had for her. She is not a grieving mother... she is a willing political activist now fully and unabashedly exploiting her son's death. Sacrifice her son?! My a**. Try using. What a disgrace.

That poor family should not have to put up with such a loon. No, that's an incorrect tag. She is not a confused, misguided, grieving mother. She is actually quite pointed and sincere in her contempt for America. Well, I'll gladly reciprocate the contempt. Hopefully, her son can forgive her should there be an afterlife. While in the present, however, I have for her nothing but disdain.

Lin, typical conservative who can't handle the truth. Please justify the noble cause, or better yet get your butt over to Iraq or Afghanistan - take your pick. No, you'd rather sick back and all you can say is "liberal this, liberal that". That's so tired, and thank God Cindy Sheehan has taken off the shackles of the press and has forced Bush's hand. He can longer sit and the ranch and chop brush all day and exercise 10 hours a day while troops are dying. Go ahead, and take another gulp of Kool-Aide which obviously makes you feel better. Cindy has created a firestorm and now we're seeing counter protests all because she dared speak the truth. Truth - try it you might like it. Oops, If forgot conservatives need marching orders from Rush and Fox News in order to think. So sad!

Sorry Mark, if I digust you, but the truth is never pretty. Too bad your daddy is faltering and can no longer lie to Americans and squash the voices of the concerned. Cindy has forced him to go on his lyin' tour to try to get the 61% who don't approve of his War on Error down. Again, have you signed up yet, or are you just one of the many neo-cons who rave about war but seem to never wind up there themselves. Neo-con freaks digust me. Thanks Cindy, you have done your country proud!

She speaks at an event where they advocate supporting the bastards who killed her son, and the moonbats still defend her.

And then call the right the Kool-Aid drinkers!

Eddy-your attacks are totally off topic. If you have something to discuss that relates to the post that is something other than an attack, say it or move on.

Rope. Tree. Traitors.

Why is it so hot in here? Wait...could it be...yes, I think it is...it's THE FIRESTORM CINDY SHEEHAN CREATED.

OH, IT BURNS!

And while I'm on the subject, what's with the trolls the last few days? I've seen the same pattern here and at Captain Ed's & Dean Place. I wonder where they're co-ordinating out of?

John from WuzzaDem,

Not so much of a firestorm as a leftist circle-jerk. Big difference there, Chief.

I think Eddy just hit every major left wing talking point in the span of 25 minutes. Which means, if we were playing a drinking game, I'd be plastered by now.

Oh this is absolutely priceless...

"We have no Constitution. We’re the only country with no checks and balances. We want our country back if we have to impeach George Bush down to the person who picks up the dog sh-t in Washington! Let George Bush send his two little party animals to die in Iraq. It’s OK for Israel to have nuclear weapons but we are waging nuclear war in Iraq, we have contaminated the entire country. It’s not OK for Syria to be in Lebanon. Hypocrites! But Israel can occupy Palestine? Stop the slaughter!"
--Cindy Sheehan

I read that and I damned nearly pissed myself laughing. Can we say Delusional? Where does this woman get her information? Nuclear war in Iraq? We've contaminated the entire country? You'd have thunk that the Left Wing MSM would have picked up on that little tidbit and condemned it very loudly.

Apparently a little bit of information can be dangerous to ignorant people.

Comparing Syria being in Lebanon to Isreal and Palastine? My god woman!

I'm quite certain that if the Bush twins wanted to enlist, and serve their country in that matter, our President would be proud to have his daughters serve. Not to mention there isn't much he could do about it. They're of legal age.

Anyways, I figured I'd bring that quote here. I am not even joking. I damned nearly pee'd myself.

You really need to read what that link goes to. It's a riot.

Another funny quote:

"“We got a president of the Unites States who is not really the President, most people didn’t vote for him. The United States is an occupied government, “Africa said, ”based on the destruction of the natives.”"

So says Pam Africa

Enough said... I still giggle when I think about that one.

I'm taking the trolls as a last hurrah by a bunch of dumbass schools kids before the parties start kicking in and they get too busy.

Lin, you must be one of those Log Cabin Republicans. Unbunch your panties, please, and think for yourself. The Repulsivecan talking points are no longer working for Bill O'reilly or Rush, so what makes you think they can work for you hear. You're just upset that the selling of the War on Error is no longer working. As I stated before, why not put you money where your fat mouth is and sign for the cause you deem so noble. Too cowardly I guess. Cindy Sheehan, thank God, has forced Bush out of his bubble and to view reality. He's so behind in the polls on the War issue that he has to go on a tour to sell it. What kinda crap is that - folks are either with him or against him and right now many are buying the lies!

Darby and you other sicko neocons, wny not post the lies of Bush and scrutinize them. Cindy Sheehan's words are less powerful than the President's, yet everyone word she has uttered about her son's death in the War on Error is carefully weighed. Too bad you live in a fantasy world and believe that the insurgency's stronghold is in its last throes. The lies aren't working anymore and many are glad that Cindy Sheehan woke up many Americans who wanted to believe, but now see that GWB has orchestrated one of the biggest blunders in American history and has no clue of an exit stategy. Why aren't his prescious party animal lushy daughers fighting in the the so-called noble cause? Oh, I forgot, they have other priorities. Meanwhile the innercity and small town kids' folks are giving their blood. Why aren't you in Iraq or Afghanistan is another question that begs an answer. Oh, you can talk a good game but wouldn't dare put yourself in harm's way, same as your Master Bush. Peace be unto you!

For me Sheehan no l garners longer garners sympathy. I viewed her as a distraught mother who perhaps went off the deep end over the loss of her son, or a confused person being manipulated by the left moonbats.

Now I realize she is far more despicable. She's just another nut moonbat and she is consciously using her son's death to promote her political agenda.

Wait until she starts to rant that she is glad her son died so she would have a reason to try and grab a spotlight for nutball ideas.

She's all but said it now...

For me, Bush no longer garners trust or faith in his leadership abilities. While the death toll is rising, before he went on his listening tour yesterday (after being forced by Cindy's actions), all he could think about was exercising and chopping brush. Saying "I have to get on with my life" was the last straw. Of course, has said some things that are objectionable, but why expect more from a grieving mother than one would from the President. He's an embarrasment and I'm so glad that some sane Republicans like war hero Chuck Hagel finally have the guts to speak. Cindy want be Roved over like the others who succumbed the the smear machine. Thanks, Cindy, your voice has resonated and no longer can Bush touting the noble cause that he can't explain to anyone other than his Kool-Aide swigging base that don't no any better.

Eddy:
Your level of literacy is a true product of the liberal public education system. It's almost as sad as your inability to formulate relevant arguments.

If America is "not worth fighting for", has been "hijacked" by neo-cons, etc... etc..., If it is not absolutely, unequivocally the best place to live on Earth... Then why not just leave? Why doesn't Sheehan go hang out with her buddy Fidel?

Dissent may be patriotic, but treason is a hanging offense. How can you hold the U.S. responsible for the heinous acts of homicide bombers? How could you solicit support for their acts during a time of war?

As if you EVER supported Bush, you Moby. Like an actual ex-Republican would be throwing around terms like "Rethuglican". Go back to your cave, little moonbat, and wank to the fact that you're on the same side of the issue as David Duke.

Eddy Johnson,

I think I have the perfect bumber sticker, campaign button, or billboard slogan for you seeing as the coalition action there was ignoble/illegal/offensive/[insert slander du jour]:

+---------------------------------------------+
|............Hussein for President............|

The Baathists could help boost agriculture greatly and diversify their various industries not to mention thinning out those pesky citizens, er dissidents.

Yeah, what is up with the trolls. I too have noticed multiple posting of virtually the same comment on multiple blogs. Perhaps Suzy was right about attempts at google-whoring to start a google-driven meme. Or maybe its multiple personalities, the trolls today sound exactly like JDC from this weekend.

1994,1996,1998,2000,2002,2004...and 2006 aint't lookin' too good either, Chomsky.

Sheehan: "America Not Worth Dying For"
Only an idiot wouldn't realize the country she's referring to is Iraq.
“George Bush and his neo-conservatives killed my son, America has been killing people on this continent since it was started. This country is not worth dying for.”

There's something worth looking into here...a few weeks ago, before Cindy let's say, illiterate attacks on the US (Blame America First) and Bush generally were met with anger (and laughter) and refuted...now nobody even seems to care much what this troll has to say or how many times he says it and really doen't even elicit much of a response. It's like the left rolled out Cindy to kind of bring things to a head and America just sort of shrugged..."eh, that's the best you got? been there, done that" and MovedOn (unlike, of course, MoveOn, which seems capable of almost anything except getting candidates elected or, in fact, moving on). I wonder if, indeed, Cindy was the tipping point, blogwise anyway.

Anybody agree that the trolls are losing their power to provoke? Like Cindy has now trotted out and made public all the little jibes and untruths and wacko theories (us conservatives are all controlled by a secret Jewish cabal, you know) that were all over the internet and in bringing them out into the light of day in the mainstream press (kinda, they tend to ignore a lot of her remarks) they've started to wither and die.

Definitely something happening there...I guess we can look forward to "Cindy Sheehan is Karl Rove's puppet" before long...

".I guess we can look forward to "Cindy Sheehan is Karl Rove's puppet" before long..."

My father always thought that Joe McCarthy was a Soviet provocateur, designed to discredit anti-communists.

Nixon08 - Death is no excuse.

Cindy Sheehan needs to stop projecting her own self-loathing onto the U.S. Just because she is not worth fighting for doesn't mean America isn't worth fighting for.

Eddy, do you know why you and your anti-war buddies are losing? Because you are worse "chickenhawks" than any rightwinger.

You could drive out and be at Cindy's camp right now, supporting her and helping her get the President's attention. But you're not doing it, even though it's much easier for you to do that than it is for a rightwinger to join the military.

Just drive out and sit. But you can't do it, because you don't really care about Cindy Sheehan, her son, or her grief. You're a hypocrite.

I keep wondering how much press coverage she would have garnered had she been demanding that GWB send thousands more troops into Iraq to wipe out the bastards that killed her son.

What if she had been in support of nuking the entire area? Deporting all Arab-Americans? Detainment of all Muslims in America?

In short, would her "grieving mother status" have given her opinion such weight if her opinion had been the opposite?

To her supporters, if you can't answer that last question in the affirmative, shut up. You don't give a tinker's damn about your beloved "Cindy," only the political agenda she espouses. Stop with all the "righteous indignation" that you throw around when someone questions her motives.

She is, as an American, entitled to her opinion. She is also, as an American, subject to having her opinion ignored, her demands unmet.

Cindy Sheehan is the one that is not worth dying for. Too bad her son disagreed and died protecting everything that she professes to hate. It must be the familial cognitive dissonance that is driving her crazy.

A few weeks from now, after Bush is in back in DC and Cindy tries to move her little camp out east, her absolute irrelevance will become obvious even to the MSM.

The day she moves into nutball history?

September 12, the day after she makes a bunch of disgusting statements on national television while the rest of the country remembers the terrible events that pushed us down the road.

Again...Bush meets with her...she gets a wedgie...she gets pushed down by her face...meeting over...8 seconds, tops.

i guess when you are the republican party, devoid of ideas or a plan for iraq, then attacking a private citizen who has every right to protest is the best you can do.

say goodbye to the majorities in 06, you have nothing left to offer america.
