Some folks are just slow learners, I guess.
Memo to Huffington:
#1. That mother had a meeting with President Bush and painted a favorable picture of that meeting. Who bought her off so she's now lying about that meeting? You?
#2. Maybe you're an appeaser. Americans with an ounce of sense are not. We're going to stay until the job is done. Period.
That mother is a communist pinko who has written in publications that WE are the terrorist. its around here in FR somewhere.
h-bomb post. be sure to shower afterward.
I saw that thread yesterday. Interesting to watch the media NOT do basic research once again.
Cindy Sheehan, the mother, now claims she is going to be arrested as "a threat to national security". DU is very upset about it.
We're in Iraq because we don't have the back bone to nuke major cities in the middle east.

Actually, IMHO, this woman is being used like a "useful idiot" by the left. They are playing her like a fiddle...

PROTESTING SOLDIER MOM CHANGED STORY ON BUSH
Mon Aug 08 2005 10:11:07 ET
The mother of a fallen U.S. soldier who is holding a roadside peace vigil near President Bush's ranch -- has dramatically changed her account about what happened when she met the commander-in-chief last summer!
Cindy Sheehan, 48, of Vacaville, Calif., who last year praised Bush for bringing her family the "gift of happiness," took to the nation's TV outlets this weekend to declare how Bush "killed an indispensable part of our family and humanity."
CINDY 2004
THE REPORTER of Vacaville, CA published an account of Cindy Sheehan's visit with the president at Fort Lewis near Seattle on June 24, 2004:
"'I now know he's sincere about wanting freedom for the Iraqis,' Cindy said after their meeting. 'I know he's sorry and feels some pain for our loss. And I know he's a man of faith.'
"The meeting didn't last long, but in their time with Bush, Cindy spoke about Casey and asked the president to make her son's sacrifice count for something. They also spoke of their faith.
"The trip had one benefit that none of the Sheehans expected.
"For a moment, life returned to the way it was before Casey died. They laughed, joked and bickered playfully as they briefly toured Seattle.
For the first time in 11 weeks, they felt whole again.
"'That was the gift the president gave us, the gift of happiness, of being together,' Cindy said."

Sheehan's current comments are a striking departure.
She vowed on Sunday to continue her protest until she can personally ask Bush: "Why did you kill my son?"
In an interview on CNN, she claimed Bush "acted like it was party" when she met him last year.
"It was -- you know, there was a lot of things said. We wanted to use the time for him to know that he killed an indispensable part of our family and humanity. And we wanted him to look at the pictures of Casey.
"He wouldn't look at the pictures of Casey. He didn't even know Casey's name. He came in the room and the very first thing he said is, 'So who are we honoring here?' He didn't even know Casey's name. He didn't want to hear it. He didn't want to hear anything about Casey. He wouldn't even call him 'him' or 'he.' He called him 'your loved one.'
Every time we tried to talk about Casey and how much we missed him, he would change the subject. And he acted like it was a party.
BLITZER: Like a party? I mean...
SHEEHAN: Yes, he came in very jovial, and like we should be happy that he, our son, died for his misguided policies. He didn't even pretend like somebody...
END
On her current media tour, Sheehan has not been asked to explain her twist on Bush; from praise to damnation!
Developing...
Is the writer referring to Yugoslavia???
What's your take on this, Crackingham?
To restore respect and the fear of consequences, the lack of which precipitated the attack on our country and in turn, was caused by anti-war whiners like this author.
Kind of silly, isn't it, to be using this one mother to pretend no one knows the reasons we are in Iraq? I never cease to marvel at the creepiness of the left. Iraq is now a democracy under attack by teh worst types of terrorists. By what logic or morality would the left abandon these millions of free peopel to be taken over by the most murderous scum possible? Scum worse than Sadaam even. Yet that is exactly what the left wants. They all slept very soundly after they got millions of southeast asians murdered by the communists.
Why are Mexicans and Greeks (Huffington) in the US?
Because it is there.
Because Hussein and his Nazi-derived government were an international threat, and over the course of more than a decade demonstrated themselves to be immune to diplomacy. After removing him, we needed to capture him and further needed to finish removing these Nazioids from simply stepping in behind him. Now we are in the process of extracting the occupation forces - though we may well maintain a military prescence for a variety of non-Iraq reasons - on our terms, and in a fashion which is less likely to result in our immediate need to return.
Further, we are fighting a multinational movement which has declared war on us, and which is content to present its members for death within Iraq.
We are also attempting to deny Iran the fruits of our victory. Their government is an enemy of both Iraq and the U.S.
Is the author Jane Fonda's friend or a member of CODEPINK or just your standard liberal with his head, ummm, in the sand?
Agreed. And we are also there because to eradicate Islamic terror, we need to go to its source, the Middle East. We started with Saddam, since he was not only brutally evil, but a clear threat to world peace.
Why were we in Germany and Japan?
