I would expect no less from her!
And one flew over the cuckoo nest...

Nice touch, don't you think?Cindy Sheehan, the so-called Peace Mom seeking a second meeting with President Bush in connection with the Iraq War death of her son, says terrorists killing Americans are "freedom fighters."
She made the remark during her trek earlier this month to Crawford, Texas; but her equating the enemy with freedom fighters has not been highlighted by the mainstream media, despite her telling it directly to a reporter for CBS News.
I would expect no less from her!
hahahahahaha
Yea .. can't have those female voters with a smile and purple thumb.. let' slap some freash burka on the women... yea Sheehan.. Advancing the lefts cause.
Vote Burka 08'
Your hair does not need to see the light of the sun it's entire life....
A new dawn for women worldwide!
The anti-war crowd is going to feel like idiots for being so duped by Sheehan. Some of them have legitimate issues against the war. Now, those who have supported her, through honest and honorable intentions, are having their cause degraded by their association with this vicious and spiteful lunatic.
Seriously though, talk about desecrating the memory of your son.
it's disgusting. The poor guys own mother calls his killers "freedom fighters"
If a foreign power would invade the US, wouldn't you guys do everything under you power to destroy the invaders?
That's how some people view the US soldiers in Iraq: As invaders.
I don't approve the methods the insurgency uses but not everything is black and white.
No . But still, a soldier's own mom calling her son's killers freedom fighters just to get another dig in about Bush is completely ed up.hat's how some people view the US soldiers in Iraq: As invaders.
I don't approve the methods the insurgency uses but not everything is black and white.
She also blamed Hurricane Katrina on Bush's global warming policies and "death policies", whatever those are, and in whatever parallel ed up universe she's in where apparently killing "freedom fighters" in Iraq somehow has an effect on the weather on the other side of the world.
So she went from a mother trying to honor the memory of her son to political activist. Nice.
the thing is she's always been a leftwing activist. Her son's death was just a great opportunity for her to trumpet her views. I find her sickening.So she went from a mother trying to honor the memory of her son to political activist. Nice.
Yea but at first it was about her son....now it seems to just be about her. Ironically the freedom she has to voice her views has been guaranteed by people like her son who died for their country.
Who is she?
One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. Funny how the majahadeen in Afghanistan went from Russian killing freedom fighters to international terrorist the moment they started striking Western interests.
Funny how quick you are to defend those who are currently killing US soldiers. I would expect nothing less.
You know, you can oppose the war without selling out your fellow citizens.
The right has no shame. If you dare get in their way they will smear Senatorial war veterans, decorated war heroes, , even their own (McCain) and now the right has stooped to a new ultimate low by smearing the mom of a soldier who made the ultimate sacrifice so his mom can have the right to express her views publicly about the war whether we agree with them view or not.
We don't know what Casey Sheehan would have said about the war, nobody ever bother to ask him, but I'm pretty certain that he won't have wanted us to sit around and call his mom nasty names just because of her views of our illegal war. If Casey had seen some of the nasty posts by some of the nasty righties on this board, I’m fairly certain he would be out at camp Casey with his mom right now.

Yeah, like this thread wasn't loaded to begin with. All of the sudden if you defend Cindy Sheehan, you support the terrorists, right?
GAFL.
You're an asshole. There's a difference in fighting out in the desert and crashing planes into our workplaces.One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.

Well seeings he voluntarily signed up for two tours, I think I know where he stands.We don't know what Casey Sheehan would have said about the war, nobody ever bother to ask him, but I'm pretty certain that he won't have wanted us to sit around and call his mom nasty names just because of her views of our illegal war
I'm fairly certain he would have smacked the out of his mom by now on behalf of all of us, his fellow troops, and himself. See, speculating can be fun
Quit trying to change the topic. Who gives a about how the thread started, he was calling you out for defending assholes who kill Americans.Yeah, like this thread wasn't loaded to begin with. All of the sudden if you defend Cindy Sheehan, you support the terrorists, right?

Who flew planes in the WT again? Was it Bin Laden or Kalleed Mohammed?You're an asshole. There's a difference in fighting out in the desert and crashing planes into our workplaces.
Who made up the name Al-Queda again? Was it Bin Laden or the US corporate press?
How many Iraqis where in those Planes again?
So now everyone who fights the U.S. is a terrorist even if we are the invaders? Considering the torture policy the U.S. has continued in Iraq it sure seems that way.
He resigned because he didn't want to leave his boys in Iraq short-handed. That we know for certain.Well seeings he voluntarily signed up for two tours, I think I know where he stands.
She wants to protest the war, fine. She wants to be angry about her son's death, fine..she has that right. What I have a problem with is her getting all those people to support her, on the basis of a grieving mother just wanting justice for her son, then when they get there, she changes her tune to the "now that I have all of you here, let me tell you why I am really here" card. Her son volunteered for that duty. He signed up of his own free will and accord knowing that their was a good chance he could be in harms way. He chose that destiny. I think that it is reprehensible, even as someone who is not in favor of our troops being there, that she has turned her son's death into a platform of her own for her own views.The right has no shame. If you dare get in their way they will smear Senatorial war veterans, decorated war heroes, , even their own (McCain) and now the right has stooped to a new ultimate low by smearing the mom of a soldier who made the ultimate sacrifice so his mom can have the right to express her views publicly about the war whether we agree with them view or not.

When she refers to those terrorists in such a laudatory and sympathetic manner, well, yes.
SMCB.
Cindy's doubts about the war has always been consistant. It's not like she has a dynamic at ude toward the war like the ever changing rational we have been given by our dear leader.She wants to protest the war, fine. She wants to be angry about her son's death, fine..she has that right. What I have a problem with is her getting all those people to support her, on the basis of a grieving mother just wanting justice for her son, then when they get there, she changes her tune to the "now that I have all of you here, let me tell you why I am really here" card.
Of course groups with like causes are gonna rally around Sheehan. Who do you think is gonna rally around her? The religious right?
well she does speak for all liberals
much in the way Pat Robertson speaks for all conservatives
Some of the Right's tactics of trying to smear her have been unfair (the divorce, the previous visit)... However, it's hard to argue that this is a smear job when it's from her own mouth.
Furthermore, I think it is relevant to question why those comments were hidden from the public until now, while most of the coverage on the pro-war rally centered around the " in the Ditch" sign and the fight breaking out with the Protest Warriors.
Like I said when this started, Sheehan is the new Schiavo. She's a cause, not a person. People on both sides see her as a symbol for the anti-war movement... The anti-war crowd pretends to care about her loss while showing cynicism towards the losses and sacrifices of those who maintain a pro-war stance. The pro-war crowd shows the kind of vitriolic hatred that should never be shown towards a mother grieving about the loss of her son.
TV separates everyone from reality. Sheehan has been used and digested by partisans on both sides for a month now, and while she certainly shares the blame for a lot of that, I still pity her because she will be discarded at some point. Particularly once her statements become so outlandish that, even though they are sentiments shared by a lot of the fringe Left, most people who would have sympathized with her cause will instead choose to distance themselves from her message for fear of aligning themselves with a wacko.
