The article mentions that Ben and Jerry's Icecream and moveon.org, Howard Dean's "Democracy for America", and Code Pink are funding the Cindy Sheehan protests and are orchestrating photo ops. They are paying the families to go and protest.

Anyone who thinks Hanoi Kerry and Hanoi Jane
aren't behind the anti war crowd
needs to get a clue.

The convicted criminal Soros?

[AnAmericanMother]

This is being done by an ABC affiliate?

Whazzup widdat? Are they covering their bets in case Jihad Cindy Mark II* implodes?

*our very own Cynthia McKinney is Jihad Cindy Mark I

[satchmodog9]

Kind of crushes the legitimacy(if it had any) when some one is footing the bill.

This is a local affiliate. The affiliates of all the MSM news outlets throughout Texas and Oklahoma are far more conservative and will tell the truth on things like this versus the national media. Some of the affiliates are locally owned and don't toe the national line.

Will you please remind me of what, exactly, Soros has been conficted of?

Thanks

Are they covering their bets in case Jihad Cindy Mark II* implodes?

Yupper. Bingo.

Newsmax and the Washington Times are going to predict that 10,000 pro-America supporters are going to confront this rabble band led by Sindy Al-Sheehan-Bin-Pharting.

I can't wait.

Wasn't it something to do with stocks or something? I forget what country.

Karen Meredith: "Sometimes things don't feel quite right to me. They don't feel wrong but maybe that's how they do it in the marketing business." ABC7's Mark Matthew: "You feel you're part of a marketing business?" Karen Meredith: "Possibly. Yeah I think so."

part of a marketing business..

So all this is about as real as Tony and Tina's Wedding???

Both the LA Times and the NY Times reported that TrueMajority paid the airfare of Iraq widow Melanie House to speak in Boise. She was recruited to do so by MoveOn.
AP omitted any mention of the groups, allowing readers to think she showed up all on her own.

[zipp_city]

What are they doing with all those crosses do they plan a burning.

[MarkeyD]

That wasn't real?

[MizSterious]

They're PAYING them to go protest? Sheesh.

[AliVeritas]

You must remember... the she-hadist also travelled with Military Moms with a Mission (Kerry financed group, up till the election). She did videos with them through RealVoices.org early Sept. 2004 and spoke with them before that.

"George Soros, the US financier and philanthropist, was today convicted of insider trading by a Parisian court and ordered to pay a 2.2 million euro (£1.4 million) fine. The 72-year-old billionaire went on trial in Paris last month, accused of using privileged information to speculate on the share price of Société Générale, the French banking giant, during a failed takeover bid in 1988."
