Sheehan: Other moms of slain 'brainwashed' Cindy labels them supporters of 'murder and mayhem'
WorldNetDaily.com ^ | August 29, 2005 | Joe Kovacs

After calling the terrorists in Iraq who killed her son "freedom fighters," anti-Bush activist Cindy Sheehan now says other mothers of those slain in the conflict whose views oppose her own are "brainwashed."

"I have been silent on the Gold Star Moms who still support [President Bush] and his war by saying that they deserve the right to their opinions because they are in as much pain as I am. I would challenge them, though, at this point to start thinking for themselves," Sheehan said.

"How can these moms who still support George Bush and his insane war in Iraq want more innocent blood shed just because their sons or daughters have been killed? I don't understand it," Sheehan stated. "I am starting to lose a little compassion for them. I know they have been as brainwashed as the rest of America, but they know the pain and heartache and they should not wish it on another. However, I still feel their pain so acutely and pray for these 'continue the murder and mayhem' moms to see the light."

"What an elitist, arrogant [remark]," Hallie Lord writes in an online messageboard. "The fact that some of us mothers vehemently disagree with you does not mean that we have been brainwashed. We are perfectly capable of thinking for ourselves and forming intelligent opinions about this war. ... The more you belittle others the less likely they are to hear and respond to your message."

You are so right. The Left is always so dour. They constantly tell people they can not do things unless the government helps. [That is not only wrong, but depressing as well.] Outside of a couple of signature issues, they are FOR nothing.

Not only are they self-destructive crazies but you can't tell them anything either. None of their blogs will accept comments that aren't filtered...not like Free Republic or even LGF (though Charles will delete a post that's really vile). So there's no chance to debate them or even, using links, prove a point. Their ears and minds are closed. As someone on this thread said, all we can do is 'get on with it' and if they ever wake up they can join us.

Attacking other parents who have lost their sons and daughters, is so unspeakably cruel. There is precious little emotional reslience for them to weather this negativity. Cindy Sheehan is truly sick. Truly sick. She is starting to make Jane Fonda look like a moderate.

Notice that she now refers to "President Bush" instead of Bush, George, still calls him names but bet PR has been directing her. Of course it is not out of respect for him or the office of the presidency. She is a NUT. It's really too bad that the rest of her (former) family doesn't go public and ask her to shut up and go home. Would it just kill her if her other son Andy enlisted.

I guess she finally got to meet with the "President" - M Sheen, d rated actor who thinks he is president.

They have. Her husband is divorcing her even.

By now it should be obvious that Ben & Jerry are funding this. They and the far Left are angry that John Kerry "their guy" lost in the 2004 election. And that GW got 4 more years in the White House. The MSM empty suits are cooperating in this charade of portraying this Activist Cindy Sheehan as only a grieving Mother. That Cindy would not meet with Debrah Jones of Marine Moms tells you everything you need to know about this nonsense. That she kicked her ex-Husband and other 3 kids to the curb tells you what kind of self absorbed Attention Whore that she is. That she is being paid and funded by outside groups hostile to Bush as well as 527 groups is beyond suspicious.

That the MSM is assisting in this will back fire. When the public figures out they have been lied to and manipulated the game and Cindy's 15 minutes of Fame will be up. Not going to be a happy ending for Cindy Sheehan who has crapped all over her Son and Family. The Far Left has no shame and has no qualms about using someone.

If it were just Cindy then I would agree that it would be wise to ignore her but it has morphed into a 1960's style revolution (which started long before the 60's and never really ended). Anti war is fine (generally speaking I am against dying) as long as nobody has declared war on you. But once war is declared as Islam has done against the west then I take them at their word. To not support defending yourself either militarily or economically, preemptively or strictly defensively is to surrender your way to theirs. Cindy and her crowd has made their decision. I choose American Liberty. The lines are drawn whether people want to recognize it or not.

As far as alienating people, I have no idea how anyone at this point could be "moderate" or undecided. I think most of middle America feels that she is crossing the line but they need to know that their neighbors feel that way also. So I say keep the caravan rolling!

And her mother, who supposedly just had a stroke.

Dallas/Fort Worth Star-Telegram 8-28-05 Jack Douglas Jr.
CRAWFORD TX-
President Bush's supporters poured into Crawford by the thousands Saturday,
for the first time outnumbering war protesters led by Cindy Sheehan,
who began a vigil here three weeks ago,
demanding a personal meeting with the vacationing president
to talk about her son's death in Iraq.

Lame Stream Media : News Flash!

President Bush already met with Cindy Sheehan in June 2004 for 10 minutes.

From The Reporter, Vacaville, CA archive: Bush, Sheehans share moments.


Quit lying!!!!







Anyone who thinks Hanoi Kerry and Hanoi Jane
aren't behind the anti war crowd
needs to get a clue.

Casey would be so ashamed of his mother if he could see what she's been doing.

Too much!

NRO has a piece today on one of the organizers who's been with Cindy from the beginning...Lisa Fithian of United for Peace and Justice, a Communist front organization under the umbrella of the World Workers Party and founded by Ramsey Clarke. Soros funds their efforts as does Theresa Heinz-Kerry. Here she is, Lisa Fithian herself:

Here's Lisa tenderly touching the crosses:

Here's another side of Lisa from one of her fawning 'non-violent' groups (that use violence to effect 'change'):

Here's the NRO article today about her courtesy of LGF, "Cindy Sheehan's Radical Strategist":

This is the 'grieving mother's' best friend? I didn't just fall off the turnip truck. Did they?

This would be sad if she wasn't a leftist. Once the America haters drop her, she doesn't even have her family to fall back on as she cut most of them off. They asked her to stop making a complete fool of herself and to refrain from making a political tool of her son's memory, she gave them more of it.

Wrong! Two protesters and a make-up woman fixing her face for her closeup.
