Remember How Social Media and MSM Silenced Cindy Sheehan? Neither Do I? With all the stories about Gold Star parents who are enraged at Biden for his direct role in the slaughter of their children, and the entirely predictable Social Media and MSM suppression, I am reminded of Cindy Sheehan and the stark contrast in how she was treated as a cause celebre. Sickening.

LNP Newspaper ^ | April 6, 2018 | Earle Cornelius
On the morning of April 4, 2004, U.S. Army Specialist Casey Austin Sheehan was an altar server at the Palm Sunday Mass at his military base in Iraq. By nightfall he was dead. Sheehan’s death led his mother, Cindy Sheehan, to question why the U.S. was involved in the war. The rationale behind the war, she said, kept changing. She founded Gold Star Families for Peace and, in August of 2005, famously staged a month-long protest encampment at then-President George W. Bush’s Texas ranch. This Friday, Sheehan will speak in the auditorium of St. John’s Episcopal Church, 321 W. Chestnut...
 

Cindy Sheehan: Bush was 'pretty rude' after son's death, 'not shocked' by Trump

Washington Examiner ^ | Oct. 18, 2017
Cindy Sheehan says President Trump's allegedly insensitive remarks to the widow of a soldier killed in Niger aren't surprising to her, and that former President George W. Bush had a similarly difficult time with her family after her son Casey's 2004 death in Iraq. Bush's treatment of grieving military family members, including Sheehan, who camped outside his Texas ranch to protest the Iraq War, is upheld frequently as an example for Trump to follow. But Sheehan said Bush's attempt to comfort her family and others was rife with awkwardness and upsetting moments, and said she's "not shocked" to read that...

I was truly stunned on (S)Election Day 2016 because I was certain that Hillary Clinton had been anointed by the ruling class to be the next CEO of Empire and the First Woman President™. Without much training (but boatloads of experience), I am a practically a political savant and am rarely wrong about such things, and Trump's "victory" did surprise me. What did not surprise me, however, was the Demo-lib's angry reaction to it. The day before the "Cataclysm of the Century™" I wrote as a status update on Facebook: "My election prediction: If Trump wins, then the Democrat faithful...

Tribune Star ^ | 9/25/2016 | David Hughes
Anti-war activist, author and podcast host Cindy Sheehan is probably best known for pitching a tent near then-President George W. Bush’s summer house in Texas in 2005 as she continued to request meetings with Bush about the death of her son during the Iraq War. Her son, U.S. Army Specialist Casey Sheehan, was killed by enemy action near Baghdad in April 2004. Cindy Sheehan, who lives in Vacaville, Calif., was honored Saturday night with the 2016 Eugene V. Debs Award during a ceremony inside the Sycamore Banquet Center on the Indiana State University campus. For those not familiar with Debs,...
 

Cindy Sheehan: 'I almost feel sorry for Bush' and 'Hillary's record has been sanitized'

Canada Free Press ^ | 08/31/16 | Robert Laurie
'Where's the outcry against Obama's wars?' If you were paying attention during the Bush years, you’ll no doubt remember Cindy Sheehan. After losing her son in Iraq, she became the left’s anti-war focal point. Almost overnight, she found herself a staple of the 24-hour news nets and a regular Sunday morning guest. She camped out in front of Bush’s home, marched, spoke wherever possible, and never missed an opportunity to decry “Bush’s imperial war for oil.” Now, in a new op-ed titled “I led the anti-war movement against George W. Bush 11 years ago. Hillary Clinton is hardly better,” Sheehan...

therightpundit ^ | 8/1/16 | rush
Rush on his radio show today goes off on the Democrats for using Khizr Khan as a 'prop' to attack Donald Trump. This is the same Democrat party that attacked Pat Smith, the mother of Sean Smith who was killed in Benghazi. The media and the Dems have no use for Pat Smith because she doesn't fit the narrative and Rush says she's not invited on because they don't want criticism of Hillary Clinton But Mr. Khan has bern absolutely everywhere on the news in the last few days to trash Trump and Rush calls them out on it. LISTEN...

teleSUR ^ | March 5, 2016 | Cindy Sheehan
Three years ago today, I wept for my friend Chavez and myself, for the people of Venezuela and the world.In 2006, shortly after my first peace camp in Crawford, Texas to confront the person who I felt murdered my son Casey: George Bush, I was invited to Caracas, Venezuela to attend the World Social Forum. Amazingly, at the time I really had no idea that the World Social Forum was about socialism, and I really didn't know much more about President Hugo Chavez other than that he was a very vocal opponent of my opponents: George Bush and the U.S....

For partisan Democrats, when the word "Benghazi" comes up, the sophisticated thing to do is roll your eyes. If the name Charles Woods comes up, the normal thing to do is say, "Who?" So let's talk about Cindy Sheehan for a moment instead. Remember her? For a while, she was the Joan of Arc of the antiwar left. The mother of a U.S. Army specialist killed in Iraq, Sheehan held a vigil outside President George W. Bush's ranch, demanding to meet with him so she could denounce the war to his face. The mainstream media swooned. Sheehan's "moral authority," New...

Eurasia Review ^ | October 17, 2015 | Cindy Sheehan
Before my son was killed in Iraq, I wouldn’t say that I “respected” or “feared” authority—that’s never been in my nature. However, looking back, I think I was terrified of crossing the proverbial line. Relating my rude awakening and experiences since then, I know that the line is drawn by the violent empire and arbitrarily re-drawn whenever it suits the needs of the Police State. Since my son Casey was killed in another US imperial war based on lies and waged for profit and I have become an anti-Empire activist, I have now been arrested too many times to keep...

BreitbartTV ^ | September 30, 2014 | Pam Key
Tuesday on NewsmaxTV's "The Steve Malzberg Show," anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan said in 2005 Nancy Pelosi and top Democrat leaders in the House and Senate said to her face that if she helped them get elected they would end the wars completely, but now they have stopped supporting her even in light of President Barack Obama's escalation of drone attacks. Sheehan said the left anti war movement is being ignored by the democrats because they are "reverse racists" who are supporting Obama only because he is an African-American.
