Didn't the MoveOn ad say, "Help us air Cindy Sheehan's ad, send money." ?? THat means to me that she got paid to make the ad, right??? So she is making money off her dead son. Classy.

So kristinn do you get the "Buckhead" award or do you share it with the other poster (sorry I forget who)?

you never hear about the families that are proud of their Children's sacrifice or that Bush was more than humbled when speaking to that sarcifice...

Mark Levin had a couple of such fathers on his radio show today on WABC in NYC. They were great, God bless 'em!!

C$ndy $HOULD $end any ill-gotten $$ to Sean's Freedom Foundation for the children of fallen troops. But on second thought, they'd probably not want it and I wouldn't blame them.

It is so disgusting.

Here in N California we keep hearing that her younger son wants to join the military, and she and her husband are now separated due to her vile attacks.

I doubt that she is, personally. On the other hand, some left-wing group is probably picking up her travel expenses and paying her some kind of per diem for her "services" with the media.

The real money, though, is being made by the left-wing group that is sponsoring her. Moveon.org? They are blatently using her grief as a fundraising tool. And, the more media exposure she gets, the more cash she rakes in for them.

So much of the left is about nothing more (nor less) than fundraising -- keeping the directors and general secretaries of the non-profits in Beemers and $500 suits.

Really? If you know more...do tell. This is the first I've heard of it. I've been wondering why her hubby isn't the campaign with her.

She has been a Golden Squawking Goose for Moveon.org, hasn't she.

Honestly, I don't. I consider her to be brainwashed. We need to make sure all kool-aide is kept well away from her.

That's easy to believe. She is actually saying that the American people are not worth defending! What is more vile than that!

'Really? If you know more...do tell. This is the first I've heard of it. I've been wondering why her hubby isn't the campaign with her.'

Go to the thread linked below and in the middle is the report that includes these two paragraphs.

Last night we were at a barbeque. The couple who hosted have a son, whose wife's parents live in Vacaville. They told our hosts that Cindy is a liar.

"So, now we have Ms. Sheehan camped out at the President’s Ranch spouting her hateful vitriol to the glee of the MSM and the Democrat party. Her husband has left her because he disagrees with what she is doing. She is a pitiful figure out there in the heat in Crawford waiting for a meeting she knows will never occur for the entertainment and purposes of the MSM and Liberals. She has sacrificed her marriage for her campaign of hate. She has been seduced by the Moores, the Conyers, the Boxers, and the Pelosis. They are working on her anger to keep her from healing. It is a sad, sad situation."

"Now don’t get me wrong, I blame her as well. She is an adult and is therefore responsible for her actions. Her family should be intervening and helping her get over her loss, but the Left have managed to estrange her from those who could help her most. The depth of her hatred and anger leads her to make outrageous statements and in the process, she is dishonoring her son. She has stated that he died for nothing, something with which he would disagree, and basically did before he left on his deployment. Her remaining son is now toying with the idea of following in his brother’s footsteps and joining the service. In her interview with AntiChimp, she said that she blamed herself most for her son’s death, because she “didn’t teach him not to die for this country.” What a sad legacy to leave for her son."

Does anybody have a link for the original story in the Vacaville paper where this witch actually gave praise to GW?

Just read it.

Her husband needs to go to court to petition to have her committed.

On the other hand, if my son were killed like that, it might just blow my mind, too. Attack her politics but, not her personally.


There are about 1800 or so mothers in the USA that have the same experience as this woman. How many of them are out there making up lies to line their pockets? This woman has disgraced the honor of her son for capital and political gain. Nothing more, nothing less.
