On the Bush Protesting Mom Calls for 'Israel Out of Palestine' thread, earlier, fellow FReeper RGSpinach provided links detailing how Cindy Sheehan's refusal to pay her income taxes pre-dates the honorable passing of Casey Sheehan in the service of his country by a considerable margin.
I've alerted Michelle malkin to the existence of this information, and she's very interested in running with it.
Unfortunately, however: Michelle can't seem to open these documents from the links provided, and neither can I. Can some technologically cyber-savvy fellow FReeper please, please help in getting this info to her, ASAP? (Her e-mail is malkin@comcast.net . Please put the word "TIP" in the subject line of your e-mail.)
Thanks, folks!
Naw, she's going to pull a Bev "Black Box Voting" whateverherlastnameis and ask the Dems for money to keep her pushing her anti-Bush message. Just watch - "expenses have increased, no immediate means of income, lost her son" blah, blah, blah, and then they'll give her money to keep talking.
They get snookered by shake down artists all the time. That's how desperate they are for leadership.
Comment:
"She must have done something right to raise a boy who loved country and liberty more than life."

Far more likely that is was a rebellion again her endless stupidity and the desire to get as far away from her as possible.
I know. I did the same thing.
- Sorry, mom. That's the way it was

You are entitled to your own opinion, as is Ms. Sheehan. But I would ask you to keep in mind that if the death of US soldiers is going to be the basis of conducting our military policy, then we will wind up rewarding the very people who are killing our soldiers.
In conventional warfare, the enemy has to strike at you ability to make war in order to defeat you. That is why conventional military doctrine protects critical targets, but leaves some individual soldiers vulnerable. Under conventional warfare, it is not sound tactics to kill soldiers when there is no direct military advantage to doing so.
But if our military decision making is to be based on some kind of numbers game, that after a certain number of friendly dead we will have to withdraw, then it is sound tactics for our enemy to kill our soldiers whenever and wherever they can, whether it serves a direct military purpose or not. This means they should strike our convoys, motorpools, supply depots and hospital areas, wherever there are US military personnel. Do we really want to encourage them to do that?
If we are going to withdraw from Iraq as soon as we reach some magic number of US dead, then the Islamakazis will do their level best to make sure we reach that number as soon as possible. By demanding that President Bush justify the death of her son, Ms. Sheehan is demanding that the US body count be the determining factor in our military decision making. This is stupid, short sighted, and ultimately self-defeating. It is the very definition of a perverse incentive.
So do I apologize for responding to the troll. I should have read further. But have no doubt she is reading the responses to her.
Just curious, what do you have against Michelle Malkin?
There are a number of search engines that pick up free public records. However, the various agencies are aware of this and have made it impossible to simply go through links to get information. I believe going through the county page and working your way through again may work.
It's the glass thing on the back of my house. ;-)
I needed to look out something in order to see the stacks of dead trolls, so I chose that...
No doubt, drooling on the keyboard....
Doh! I did it again.
It is ours to question those she associates with and her agenda..Her son volunteered..I mourn his loss and honor his sacrifice..
She HAS met with the President..What makes her more important than others? She has the far left Bush haters with her and a good PR organization..
She has a right to her opinion but not a right to her demand for another meeting.
She appeared at his fake Downing Street Memo 'hearing'.
The woman is selling out to whomever will give her cash.
I see a mother who is using the death of her son to push a political message that she had before he joined up.
To that I say "For Shame".
They already got it.
I figured, but I don't know when her son joined up. One could make a case that she stopped paying because of that, not the death of her son.
That's why I wondered if she maybe stopped paying even before her son joined up.
Thank You!!!!! I was going to post that myself!!!
Um, no. She is far more than a "grieving mom."
Read her quotes. She should be given no quarter. 'Pod.
"Lay off the poor woman. No one knows how anybody would react if they lost a son or a daughter. She is going through a grieving process. However insane, or irrational it might be, just lay off of her. Some of thje things I have read here are horrendous. The best way for her to go away is to ignore her."
When she lays off attacking the bravery of the other mean and women giving up their lives for a just cause, then we can lay off. But she put herself in the political arena on her own, she wants the attention, then she can also have the criticism.
Yeah, the real fault lies with her Commie handlers and the media.
