Courageous mother did not deserve criticism
Columbus Dispatch ^ | Tuesday, August 23, 2005 | CINDY WESTLING

Posted on 08/23/2005 4:51:15 AM PDT by Loyal Buckeye

Fox News has hit a new low. I didn’t think it was possible. To insinuate that a grieving mother is a communist, a wacko or has a political agenda just shows how evil this cable network is.

Cindy Sheehan is a hero who has every right to demand answers to why her son and so many other Americans lost their lives for a lie. Our servicemen pledge to serve and defend our nation.

They do so out of a sense of moral obligation and a love for this country. Leaders of this administration and especially President Bush have shown time and again that they view themselves as above reproach. Our soldiers’ lives and dedication are expendable.

That Bush, who presents himself as a man of faith, can’t reach out to a fellow human as a good Christian, tells me that he is no Christian. God help us all.

I did a search for syphro but all I got was a Greek geneology site.

Franklin Electronic Publishers puts a world of knowledge in your hand.

All well and good unless your hand is already full.

The only polls that really count occur in November. Their outcomes have not been troubling since 1996.

Thanks for offering your opinion, newbie. My guess is you're about as much a "loyal conservative" as Cindy Sheehan is. No wonder she speaks for you.

Don't forget to take your intellectual capital when you leave.

Talk away. If is wasn't important for you to be heard here, maybe you shouldn't have lied and come here pretending to be something you aren't. You are getting all the respect you deserve.

This is a private board for true conservative discussion. Libs who come around and call names aren't welcome.

I don't think Fox did any such thing. Joan Baez singing Cindy's praises does more to perpetuate any communist leanings Cindy seems to be aligning herself with. Fox news just reports: You decide.

She is not a grieving mother. She is a complaining mother.

It is true that this is not the kind of place I usually invest intellectual capital in; but I have enjoyed slumming here.

Perhaps your time would be better spent slumming someplace where you can learn about the proper use of a semicolon.

Just trying to help.

I've heard a Cindy supporter say that we were not attacked by Iraq on 9-11, that the London and Spanish bombings were not done by Iraqis.

NAZI Germany had nothing to do with the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Thank you so much....I didn't know that Casey had just come from mass when he volunteered to go on his final mission. Or that this took place on Palm Sunday.
I get a lump in my throat at each new revelation about him. He gave so much in such a short span of years.

Ah yes, the quality of discussion is so much more stimulating and thoughtful at DUh. The combined intellectual capital invested therein wouldn't get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks.
