Freeper Investigation: Cindy Sheehan "Vigil" and "Anti-War Protests" Fake, all bought and paid for by George Soros.
I have been reading the stories on Cindy Sheehan and her "Valiant Vigil" at "Camp Casey" as the "Peace Mom" on AP, CBS, AFP, Reuters, etc... and now the "I Shall Return" announcements and speeches being reported about in the wires. I noticed a similarity in each and every story I read. Each referenced one or another "Spokesperson" named Michelle Mulkey, Mike Smith, Steve Smith, Ryan Fletcher. Well, I did a quick investigation and I found that with the exception of Ryan Fletcher, each of these persons are "Account Executives for "Fenton Communications".
What is Fenton Communications you ask? and what the heck are Account Executives??? Well, to put it simply, Fenton Communications IS a major part of the "Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy". Fenton Communications is a Left-Wing Public Relations Corporation with revenues in the Millions. It has a financial powerbase that has grown exponentantly since 1998 due to the massive infusion of cold cash from Left-wing clients, grants, and whatnot not the least of which is from billionaire George Soros's "The Tide Foundation" , Hollywood elites, and Foreign Sources. It's stated purpose is to provide "Public Relations" services to Left-of-center clients who advocate "Social Change" theories. (For those who do not know, the Communist Manifesto is based directly upon the "Social Change" Doctrine of Karl Marx (as rewritten by FREDERICK ENGELS January 30, 1888 London). "Social Change" is the basis of the "Progressive" movement of today. In other words, out and out Communism.) Account Executives are the guru's who think up ways to "PR" their clients, whether it is in a good way or a bad way.. It does not matter to a Public Relations Account Executive, as long as the Client's purposes are served and the 3 basic guidelines (The 3 C's) are covered (Confidence, Coverage, and Controversy).
You have all seen the power and ability of this "Vast Left-Wing Organization" to promote it's Anti-American, Anti-Capitalist propaganda. What seems to be a bunch of "Non-Profit" Left-Wing organizations out there each promoting their own screed, (ex.. Moveon.org, democraticunderground.org, Gold Star Families for Peace, etc..) They are in reality all one group and all are the brainchildren of the Account Executives at Fenton Communications. Their Proudest Achievement is Moveon.org. Here is a quote from Fenton Communications "About Us" webpage:
/quote
Fenton Communications is the largest public interest communications firm in the country. Since 1982, Fenton has contributed to some of the most defining social change movements of the past quarter century, from the fall of apartheid to the rise of MoveOn.org as a grassroots political force.“When we were looking to hire a PR firm, we wanted one with the expertise and professionalism of a corporate firm, and the heart and values of an organization that cares about our issues as much as we do. With Fenton, we have a true partner that gets us results.”
-Michelle Sawatka, Director of Media Relations, The American Lung Association
With our clients, we've waged winning campaigns on a broad range of issues. We've exposed human rights injustices and corporate corruption and moved the needle on environmental toxins and the death penalty.
Fenton is small enough to be nimble and inventive but big enough to supply a full range of services, from strategic planning and media relations to advertising and online marketing. Our offices in Washington, D.C., New York and San Francisco use the same sophisticated tools as corporations and governments, harnessing them for social change.
We aren't guns for hire. Fenton has always been selective about the clients we work with. We choose not to represent clients and projects that we don't believe in ourselves. This policy serves not only our goals but also our clients' best interests.

Who are the "Puppet Masters" behind Cindy and the whole country wide "Controversy"???
From The West coast (Left Coast) we have:
MICHELLE MULKEY
ACCOUNT DIRECTOR
Michelle Mulkey, an account director at Fenton’s San Francisco office, has provided strategy, communications support and publicity on a range of public interest issues, including progressive politics, voting rights, public and children’s health, education reform and environmental protection.
As the lead strategist for Texans for Truth, the advocacy group that provided a Democratic answer to Swift Boat Veterans for Truth during the 2004 election, Mulkey helped expose President Bush’s missing year of service during the Vietnam War. During the 2004 election, she also worked for MoveOn PAC, Common Cause, NARAL Pro-Choice America Foundation and People for the American Way on voter turnout and voting rights protection.
Mulkey leads Fenton’s work with Christian, Evangelical and interfaith groups to protect the environment. Her media outreach on behalf of the “What Would Jesus Drive?” and Detroit Project campaigns helped make fuel economy a hot-button issue. And she has placed clients including MoveOn.org and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. on “The Today Show,” “The O’Reilly Factor,” “CNN American Morning” and “Hardball,” among others. She has also served as a key staffer on education reform issues in California for the Hewlett Foundation.
Mulkey has a broad range of experience developing branding and communications strategy plans for groups including the Ad Council, Oregon Natural Resources Council and Save The Bay. She also provided research and legislative strategy for the Polly Klaas Foundation’s legislative agenda to protect kids from family abduction.
Mulkey graduated from Green Corps, an environmental leadership training program, after earning her B.A. in history from Pepperdine University.
MIKE SMITH
ACCOUNT DIRECTOR
Mike Smith, an account director in Fenton’s west coast office, brings years of experience in media relations, positioning and branding, strategic communications, marketing and Web site. He specializes in public health, politics and social justice, and example clients include the American Medical Association, the Polly Klaas Foundation, Infact and National Voice, the organization behind the NOVEMBER 2 campaign that registered and turned out a record number of new voters for the 2004 election.
Smith has integrated proven corporate PR strategies into public interest communications from his prior work with the Horn Group, a high-tech public relations firm, WetFeet, a publisher and Internet site for career and recruitment information, and Odwalla, where he conducted marketing outreach, events, donations and sponsorships with community and grassroots organizations. Smith also wrote and developed advertising campaigns for The Onion Newspaper. He received his B.A. in English from Colorado College with minors in journalism and African studies.
From the East coast (Washington DC) we have:
STEVE SMITH
ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE
Account Executive Steve Smith brings a rich background in environmental issues to Fenton, where he works with clients including MoveOn.org, the MoveOn Voter Fund, and MoveOn PAC. Prior to joining Fenton, Smith was a media officer at Greenpeace USA, where he secured national coverage for the group in publications such as The New York Times and Washington Post. His media relations work on the U.S. government's highly publicized criminal case against Greenpeace for protesting Amazon mahogany lumber helped frame the issue as a victory for free-speech and peaceful protest in the media, including The Miami Herald, The Denver Post, a cover story in The Miami New Times, as well as a major segment on CBS Evening News.
Smith also worked with Greenpeace International during the 2003 5th Ministerial Meeting of the World Trade Organization in Cancún, Mexico, garnering media coverage in Spanish-speaking press, including numerous affiliates of Univisión, and Telemundo, and El Nuevo Herald in Miami. Prior to that, as the campaigns director assistant at Greenpeace, Smith spearheaded several projects, including outreach to recruit youth activists. He holds a double degree in international affairs and Spanish from the University of Colorado at Boulder, and studied at the Universidad de Alcalá de Henares in Madrid.
New York City:
DAVID FENTON
CEODavid Fenton, named as “One of the 100 most influential P.R. people of the 20th Century” by PR Week magazine, founded Fenton Communications in 1982 to create issue-oriented public relations campaigns focusing on the environment, public health and human rights. Over the course of two decades, he has pioneered the use of professional P.R. and advertising techniques by nonprofit public interest groups in the United States and around the world.
Fenton is also a co-founder of three independent nonprofit organizations: Environmental Media Services, which coordinates communications activities for environmental groups; New Economy Communications, which works on human rights issues in the global economy; and the Death Penalty Information Center. Fenton was formerly director of public relations at Rolling Stone magazine and co-producer of the “No Nukes” concerts in 1979 with Bruce Springsteen, Bonnie Raitt and other artists. He is a native of New York City.
That's all fine and dandy, but how do they get all this stuff into the press?? Well, that is actually one of the easiest things to do. A Public Relations firm does just about everything for you, from "Pitching" the stories to the interested reporters and if they need to , they will actually write the news storie and feed them to members of the press who put their names on it and submits it as their own work. Some of these "Journalist" will get paid on the side, other times, they are people looking to get promoted or "Ahead" in their fields and will use these activism stories as stepping stones to anchor jobs or bureau chiefs. Two very well known AP "Journalist" who provide a conduit into the "Main Stream Media" for these Left-Wing Public Relations companies are RON FOURNIER (For Political Stories) and KATHLEEN HENNESSEY (Environmental and Activism Stories). You may not know this, but there is a monopoly of how news is sent to newspapers, tv stations, web sites, Radio Stations, etc.. There is no competing news organizations, no such thing. The "Main Stream" networks may have some stories that they will feed to their affiliates, but 98% of all the news you see on the internet, television, radio, and print (newspapers and magazines) are originated from the Associated Press. This is no made up number. This is fact. You can contact any local news outlet and ask them where they get their news. It is either from AP or their Affiliate news feed. This is why when news is reported around the nation, it is consistent and deviates very little from one place to another (word for word it is the same). Oh sure, you have heard of UPI, AFP, Reuters.. Those are regional newsgathering organizations, but they all get their news from the Associated Press exclusively. (Deep thought for those who think: If you wanted to get rid of the "Main Stream Media" all you have to do is disband the Associated Press and most "Main Stream" news organizations will fall faster then a French Military Retreat).
Watch the news cycle for this particular "Public Relations Project" Code named "Peace Mom" and apply the above to the next news story and see how you will see it in a completely different light.

Major Left-Wing Funding groups:
I do not need to post any other "Funding" group as 80% of them are actually affiliated with the George Soros Tides Foundation. Start from there and work your way down the funding chain and you will find 98% of the Left wing 527's, 501c's, websites, etc.. are all owned by George Soros.

Well, It turns out that no matter how the lawsuit ends, Native Americans will not see a dime of that trust money. George Soros will use the money for financing his Left-wing Propaganda machine. How do I know this?? Well, it turns out that Elouise Cobell is a Director of the Tides Foundation, she is one of the 13 People of the the Soros Politboro working to overthrow the US Goverment with the Left-Wing Propaganda machine.
Elouise Cobell, Director Elouise Cobell serves as Director of the Blackfeet Reservation Development Fund, and Project Director of the Individual Indian Monies Trust Correction and Recovery Project. Her support of the Blackfeet Indian Tribe (of which she is a member) and her activism in local agricultural and environmental issues earned her a 1997 "Genius Grant" from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation's Fellowship Program.
