It's easy to see why Cindy Sheehan, the 48-year-old mother of a soldier killed in Iraq, has become the new face of the anti-war movement, featured in a New York Times editorial on Tuesday and a Maureen Dowd column yesterday morning. Camped out in Crawford, Texas, near President Bush's ranch, she's a more sympathetic face than a lot of the alternatives. But as sad as Ms. Sheehan's loss is - and we don't belittle it - she has put herself in league with some extreme groups and individuals.
For starters, Ms. Sheehan has been posting on Michael Moore's Web site, writing, "We have such a strong coalition of groups. GSFP, Code Pink, Veterans for Peace, Military Families Speak Out and the Crawford Peace House. I talked with John Conyers today and he wrote a letter to George signed by about 18 other Congress members to request that he meet with me. I also talked to Maxine Waters tonight and she is probably going to be here tomorrow."
It turns out that the Crawford Peace House Web site includes a photo depicting the entire state of Israel as "Palestine," and it carries a link to a report that when Prime Minister Sharon visited Crawford, the "peace house" greeted him with an "800-foot-long banner containing all of the United Nations resolutions that Israel is in violation of." The Crawford Peace House site also features a photo of Eugene Bird, who has suggested that Israeli intelligence was responsible for the abuses at Abu Ghraib.

She's ruined now. This info will catch up with her shortly.
I mean, "...over her every utterance."
Ain't it a hoot how liberals proclaim that the First Amendment includes a requirement that taxpayers fund objectionable liberal art - but if you speak in support of the troops and haven't served in the military, you have no right to speak.
Free speech for me but not for thee...
O'Reilly had a story night before last, that said that she is getting financing from a group headed by a guy named Hussieni.
This Husseini guy was on O'Reilly two days after 9/11 and was bascially saying it was the US fault...blah, blah..
Not only do we think for ourselves, but Freepers are some of the best researchers on the planet--which is why we know Sheehan is full of caca del toro. Some excellent researchers looked up what she said immediately after visiting with the President and compared it with what she's saying now. So the woman is at the very best a liar, and at worst, a traitorous liar. The only question is, was she lying then, or is she lying now, or does she even know?
Welcome!
The stinky trolls are out in force on FR today. Maybe all this exposing of the truth about Cindy Sheehan and her ilk is striking some nerves.
Lots of "exposing" going on--the Sheehan lies, the 9/11 commission lies, the Err America "financing"--so much to expose about the morally bankrupt left!
I set the miracle text viewer in post 30 in case you still want to smack her.
(I dare ya to smack her some more! *chuckle*)

I don't understand why these idiots keep insisting that no-one on FR has served in uniform.
WHERE do they come up with this stuff?
We also look out for each other as well.
And, demonstrably, insanity is not a bar to being elected...
Seriously.
Thanks!
"If you haven't worn the uniform, you can't speak for the troops". This is a variation of the ChickenHawk label where you couldn't even discuss the use of the military. I myself was accused of dodging Vietnam...because I was 12. I'm going to use the same logic and say if you haven't run for office, you can't discuss politics. Nah, that would be RIDICULOUS!
95% of the population never wore the uniform.
Most of us who haven't worn the uniform are married to someone who did (or are currently wearing it)--or have parents or siblings who did (or still do). It really IS an idiotic statement to make, and proof that unlike Freepers, this stupid little troll didn't bother to do her research before spouting off.
I'm disability retired, 100%, service connected, so I still have a military ID, and will have one forever.
Caught a bit of that last evening near the end. I saw O'Reilly let her go on and make her look somewhat foolish. I wish that I had seen it all.
Exacly.
And thanks!
I can't recall the exact number of trolls who have been here claiming the canard of FR being full of 'never-have-serveds', but it is a fairly good sized amount of them.
They get me angrier than any other kind of troll out there.
