The oh-so-principled “anti-war” movement is cynically using Cindy Sheehan, whose son Casey was killed in Iraq. But Sheehan, now camped out in Crawford demanding to see the President so she can call him a murderer while cameras roll, has changed her tune:
That story, by staff writer David Henson, was an account of Sheehan’s visit with the president in Seattle.
In Henson’s story, Sheehan spoke of how she and husband, Patrick, debated before the meeting whether to ask pointed questions about the war and whether to vent frustration over their son’s sacrifice. Ultimately, the Sheehans decided not to criticize Bush in the meeting.
Afterward, Cindy Sheehan told Henson of a new-found respect toward Bush.
“I now know he’s sincere about wanting freedom for the Iraqis,” she said in the story. “I know he’s sorry and feels some pain for our loss. And I know he’s a man of faith.”
Sheehan also said the trip to Seattle helped connect her family to others that had lost a son or daughter in Iraq. Sheehan said sharing their story with those families was rewarding, as was the time she got to spend with her own family.
“That was the gift the president gave us, the gift of happiness, of being together,” she said in the story.
Sheehan, by the way, is also an Israel-hater: What One Mom has to Say to Bush.
“And the other thing I want him to tell me is ‘just what was the noble cause Casey died for?’ Was it freedom and democracy? Bullsh*t! He died for oil. He died to make your friends richer. He died to expand American imperialism in the Middle East. We’re not freer here, thanks to your PATRIOT Act. Iraq is not free. You get America out of Iraq and Israel out of Palestine and you’ll stop the terrorism,” she exclaimed.

Sheehan moonbat bump
I've hesitated to reply because this woman has lost a son -- how horrible. HOWEVER, she has crossed over into raving lunatic range and should be hospitalized for severe depression and probably a range of other problems. I truly hope and pray she gets the help she so obviously desperately needs.
Cindy Sheehan is not being used. She is leading the Leftist parade and carrying a big banner. Probably something she's wanted to do all her life.
That the left is so eager to exploit this distraught woman's grief-addled remonstrances is sick-making.
Kos and the rest have no shame.
You are probably right.
Hahahahahaha
I forwarded LGF the Cindy quote about Israel. I KNEW they would post it.
You did? Good job!
Hadi Jawad, spokseman for the Crawford Peace House helping Cindy Sheehan and supports with food and water during their protest, said today that is was a 'changing and fluid situation right now' with authorities keeping a close eye on the group and warning them about possible tresspassing violations.

I think he's of Arab descent.
Hope that helps.
A Jewhater. I am shocked I tell you - SHOCKED! (not)

I've looked over on DUmba$$land, but can't find their reaction to that little fact. Have you (or anyone else) seen what the moonbats have to say?
I lurk there and there is absolutely NO MENTION of that. They just got the statement from the Sheehan family members denouncing her and they don't believe it.
Figures.....those dimbulbs won't acknowledge fact when it slaps them right in their seditious faces.
ROFLMAO Talk about paranoid Nutcases. They think the arrests are not going to happen in broad daylight and that Bush and Co. will arrest them in the dead of night. They are hoping someone has night vision glasses. ROFLMAO!! I can't believe them! Crackpots all of them!
