I just pulled this President Bush quote from the wires:

"I sympathize with Mrs. Sheehan," Bush said. "She feels strongly about her position, and she has every right in the world to say what she believes. This is America. She has a right to her position, and I thought long and hard about her position. I've heard her position from others, which is: Get out of Iraq now. And it would be a mistake for the security of this country and the ability to lay the foundations for peace in the long run if we were to do so."

Again you should be able to dissent with your government and not be called a traitor. And for good reason, group think is a dangerous thing.

I said just that in the above post. An no President is going to come out and say "this women is a barking moonbat who supports our enemies."

She is a liar. Proven liar. And filled with hate for this country.

Call it dissent. I call it traitorous.

President Bush is the President, and he is in a different type of position than I am, wherein he is as diplomatic as possible, while totally rejecting her demands. I expected him to do it that way. Does not mean the rest of us have to.

And btw, I actually think she is a threat to get more of our young warriors killed. I think she is on the side of the terrorists. Her rants against this country, against Israel, etc. sound just like the terrorists. There is virtually no difference in their words.

The President would be true to his Oath of office to Preserve, Protect and Defend the Constitution, and true to his role as Commander in Chief of our Armed Forces if, in those capacities, he had this national security threat removed from near his ranch, so that she could spew her hatred and lies from some other location and have to stop stalking him and using the situation of his location and his Presidency to harm our troops and our security around the world.

I disagree that she should be allowed to continue forever doing what she is doing WHERE AND UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES SHE IS DOING IT, AND I DON'T CARE IF THE PRESIDENT ALLOWS HER TO, I THINK THAT IS WRONG!

You're advocating mob rule. Not a good idea.
