The journalists will soon move on, and her political allies may do so as well. For them she is a mere instrument.

A media hoe.

What they're saying, too, is like, it's okay for Israel to have nuclear weapons. But Iran or Syria better not get nuclear weapons.

Sheehan seems incapable of anything except moral equivalence.

Like most persons infected with extreme liberalism, all societies are equal, except ours, which is irredeemably worse than any other.

I think she's beyond "appears to have gone insane", waaaaaay beyond "appears"!

"We grieved in totally different ways," Cindy says. "He wanted to grieve by distracting himself. I wanted to immerse myself." . . . The couple separated in June.

This act of immersing herself in her grief is the key, I think, to understanding what has happened to this woman. She continues to pry the wound open, so, of course, it will not heal.

This course of action has already cost her her job, her husband, and soon the rest of her family. Although I despise what she is doing, I believe she needs help. We are watching her commit a slow suicide.

Friday night's Dateline was abouth the BTK serial killer.

One of the most striking scenes was when he said that he had established a "rapport" with the LEOs who inverviewed him, and how lonely he was after they were through with him.

He said he felt like a rock star with all the attention.

Cindy Sheehan is suffering from BTK syndrome - she feels like a rock star while getting attention from people who are using her, and she is going to be all alone when they are through with her.

Not even her family will be there when it is all over.

"Sheehan lost her job at Napa County [Calif.] Health and Human Services because of all her absences, she says."

She said in one of her rants that she lost her job because of Bush's economic policies.

Some of her family members will be on O'Reilly tonight. We'll have to see what they have to say about her mental capacity.

Her IQ can be measured with a tire pressure gauge.

Our government is run by one party, every level," Sheehan continued, "and the mainstream media is a propaganda tool for the government." Sheehan also called the 2004 presidential election "the election, quote-unquote, that happened in November."

Isn't it funny that these lefty lunatics are only bothered by this one party rule when it's the wrong party (to them) ruling?

Yes, Time just ran a puff piece without mentioning Cindy's anti-semitism.

Didn't someone interview this lady about the reason why her son volunteered for military service? I thought I read something about it months ago when she was first gearing up.

Didn't he have a radically different point of view?

That's all liberals do..they get on these stupid, idiotic, talking points and repeat it over and over an over until they're all in a trance. I have a few in my own family, and it's boring rhetoric.

What keeps her going is higher and higher levels of anger and paranoia. If I were in the Left, I'd be worried about her ever-escalating hyperbole.

Liberals are always on the look out for anyone that they can use and exploit. The continued use of "grieving mother" is a clever way to avoid using antiwar protester, making it easily for all the other radicals to piggyback on her skirttails to advance their cause with the help of the MSM. Attacking the wacko would be attacking a "poor grieve stricken mother". Yet we are pro-bush protesters.

It's what they do best, throw mud and make enough noise hoping it will stick, then move on to the next victim.
