SHEEHAN: "this country is immoral"
Sheehan ^ | 8/8/05 | Vanity

Posted on 08/08/2005 11:37:35 AM PDT by advance_copy

Cindy Sheehan has gone from opposing President Bush to bashing America. Calling the United States "immoral", she says she doesn't want to live in a country like this and is ready for jail. The woman, whose son was killed in Iraq, is protesting at Crawford, TX and said the following today:

SHEEHAN: "I don't want to live in a country like this. And this country is immoral, the laws are immoral, the people who enforce the laws are immoral. And, like Henry David Thoreau said, the only place for a moral person to be is in jail. And I'm ready to go to jail."

A recording of her shocking statement is currently available here: (MP3 format, size 124KBytes, length 15.4 sec)

Sheehan's outrageous comments today came during an interview with moonbat conspiracy radio host, Alex Jones.

I'd pony up $100 if she would only SHUT UP!

When Thoreau made that statement, he made it to another author who was visiting him at the time I believe, his name escapes for the moment. If I recall correctly, the visiting author had a marvelous comeback to Thoreau, anyone remember what the comeback was?

This character surely suffers from schizophrenia. She tried to convince us that the military recruiters lied to her son and then learned her son RE-INLISTED. We also learned from his sister “that all he wanted to do was serve God and his country his whole life".

She next tried to spoon feed us the notion that GWB was almost jovial when she met him last year and accused him of "acting like it was a party". What a change a year makes as her immediate reaction then was to praise Bush for bringing her family the "gift of happiness,".

At first I thought her grief distorted her memory. However this skunk who has the nerve to DEMAND GWB meet with her again, has been photographed with Wilson and has joined with moveon.org and therein lies the reason for it all.

Apparently this media hound is dissatisfied with the 24/7 coverage and now hopes to be arrested. Why she doesn't leave this 'immoral country' is beyond me.

Why doesn't she leave?

LOL... I'll bet Alec Baldwin would put her up in his house in France until she got a place of her own.

It's actually kind of sad, this woman, in her grief, is being used by the Dems for politics.

Any feeling of sympathy I had for this woman has evaporated. She is now a certified barking moonbat. If the United States is so bad, and she doesn't want to live here, let her get her silly posterior someplace she likes better. Hey, I would even be willing to kick in a few pennies toward a one-way ticket.

this woman isn't grieving anymore, she is using her son's name and death to voice her opinion of our country and president. she was against President Bush since 2000, still thinks he stole the election. This is nothing more than an old hippie flowerchild, living in a time warp, protesting another war. She won't leave this country, she wouldn't survive in a foreign place

This is a weird story. It seems to me like a sad situation. Someone in this woman's family needs to comfort her and get her to quietly go home. Her grief has obviously made her irrational.

I don't think it is sincere. She is willingly being used and is putting on an act for the left. She debases her son's efforts and therefore his life and she is doing it for cheap political purposes. She is no more irrational than the rest of the lefties.

I'd bet almost anything she could search high and low and find some moral Taliban or other fidel to cozy up to if she heads for Tora Bora or Faluja or some such.

And like most leftist femenists she would look really good in a full burka. (Which I suppose is the opposite of a full Monty.)

Trying her best to claim her 15 minutes of fame on the back of her dead son.

Sigh. I guess she's just like the rest of the bitch-and-moan liberals.

It's good that every time her name is spoken it's somehow in conjunction with the word "moonbat."

I prefer to politely ignore her. People can't always think straight when they've lost a child.

If you ignore her will the MSM? We can't just let this wackjob and the MSM get away with all their lies.

How about a new headline? "Attention-Hungry Psycho Bitch Dishonors Son's Death"

"I wonder if other soldiers worry about their own family members going out and making a mockery of their sacrifices should something happen to them?"

I hope they don't have to add "family member going over the edge" to the already heavy worry list they have!

Who of us really knows if she has always been this way?
