She needs to move to a country more suited to her... like Cuba.
Cindy Sheehan Has Her Daily Kos Account Taken Away
A no longer useful idiot gets marginalized
It almost makes you feel sorry for her...nah!
She needs to move to a country more suited to her... like Cuba.
Personally, I'd like to see her go to Venezuela.
They pushed her, empowered her, used her for their own benefit, and now they're hanging her out to dry. No surprise... I don't know if there's ever been a more perfect personification of the term "useful idiot."
I do, actually, feel somewhat sorry for her because I think she was taken advantage of while she was having an understandably extreme reaction to the death of her son. While she should have had the support of her family and friends to help her cope with Casey's death in a normal way, politicians lined up to get pictures with her and bloggers like Kos got interviews with her to attract traffic to his site. They made her a movement figurehead during a psychologically erratic time of her life and she never recovered from the effects of that.
They took advantage of her tragedy and now they've turned on her. God Bless America.
DailyKos is a Democratic Blog, but Sheehan is free to continue blogging on her own...
Still, by the comments you can see how people have turned on her.
Really? Can one really do that?
I think it has more to do with her tugging on Super 's cape.
Thanks for missing the point Nbadan. Can always count on you.
Well, I'm of the thinking of I don't know exactly what Sheehan expects Pelosi to do, pass yet another useless resolution that the President is gonna veto, or better yet, cut off funding altogether and be painted in 08 by the wing-nut media as cut-and-run Demos? The Demos have no choice but to let Iraq continue to run it's course until it gets so bad that enough Republican senators and Congressmen cross the idealogical aisle out of moral reasons or the 08 election forces them to do so...
Many liberals still support and admire Sheehan, but DailyKos is a blog to promote Democratic candidates. I just think that Cindy didn't understand that image is everything to our sound-bite M$M and appearing with Chavez was a PR disaster...
Pelosi and Boxer want to impeach Bush.
Are you saying they lied, again?
I'm afraid it's a bit late to close that barn door.
Why would they confirm Petreaus, fund the war, request a report from him in September and then start immediately barking about withdrawing.
They have no intention of pulling out of Iraq. They're merely playing politics.
I think the Sheehan topic is a safe place for yoni to play.
I thought DailyKos was a blog to discuss Democratic issues...
I don't find the part about being created to only support Democratic Candidates.
Petreaus was more suited for the Job than Sanchez, and not funding the war would have been political disaster for Demos. Even some Republicans didn't give Dubya till the Sept update....Why would they confirm Petreaus, fund the war, request a report from him in September and then start immediately barking about withdrawing.
They have no intention of pulling out of Iraq. They're merely playing politics.
Try promoting non-democratic candidates...I don't find the part about being created to only support Democratic Candidates.
That doesn't answer the question.
From all indications, the surge is making pretty significant progress and, yet, they've ratcheted up the rhetoric about withdrawing.
So, what kind of candidate is Sheehan? And, why are her "progressive" ideas no longer welcome?
Are you saying only certain types of Democrats are allowed on DailyKos? Kind of limiting debate there, aren't they?
...we can surge all we want, but if there is no Iraqi army trained enough to hold the ground, then the second we de-surge the terra-ist return, thus Fallujah...
She's an independent I believe, and she's hardly a progressive....
Well, she was the darling of the Progressive party not too long ago...
But, I forget, this is the same party that had Joe Lieberman as their vice-presidential candidate just a short time ago.
Well, I hope they have fun...I know it's going to be entertaining for the rest of us.
It's not like Progressives picked Lieberman and many liberals still admire Sheehan, but pissing on people who are on her side probably isn't too bright....
You know, Dan, whatever gets you liber...er, progressives through the night.
She needs to take Hillary with her.
Chavez nationalizes oil and the media.
Hillary wants to nationalize them too!
I have a thought. The democrats are the party of tolerance, right? Doesn't that mean they tolerate everyone that votes for them? At least as long as they stay in their place?
