Memo to Drudge, et al: It's Not About Me, It's About the War (134 comments )

Even after my repeated attempts to keep the focus of my protest on the war, the Drudge Report and others continue to try to make the issue about me. But I am not the issue. The issue is a disastrous war that's killing our sons and daughters and making our country less secure. They attack me because they can no longer defend this war. I've come to Crawford to bring to the president's doorstep the harsh realities of a war he's been trying so hard to avoid. But no matter what they say or how many shotguns they fire or how many crosses they destroy, they're not going to stop me from speaking out about a war that needlessly killed my son.

That's all you have to do is quote her and you will be accused of right wing smears, trying to make the issue about her.

In effect, she's saying that she can attack whoever she wants, and any response that her attacks elicit is a sign of weakness...

Ummm... Cindy Sheehan is kookoo.

A) Yell "fire" in a theater
B) "Cry wolf" one too many times
C) When someone says "it's not about me".. shake head and walk away.

You're not? Well then, that means you're no different from any of the other 200 million adults in the U.S. And all that stuff about the President having to talk to you (for the second time) because you happen to be the mother of a soldier who was killed is all b.s., right? Because its not about you.

Right?

Cindy Sheehan is typical of those afflicted with malignant narcissism -- they believe everything that happens in the world is about them, but they'd sooner croak than admit to that belief.

Let them accuse you of what ever they wish, they are still radical leftist trying to break the will of the people in a battle for our lives against radical Islam.

I hope the Democrats reserve a seat at their next Convention, next to Michael Moore, for this blithering idiot Cindy Sheehan. The Rats are digging their own grave by associating with this malcontent, and I hope they run her against Hillary

So when she gets back, will there be a weenie roast at the cross burning that David Duke will throw for her?

Meantime, I'm sure those fine young citizens over at Stormfront have taken Cindy's enlightened stand on the Israeli Palestinian issue to heart....

Such nice boys....

Be Seeing You,

Chris
