"True to form, the attack on Cindy Sheehan surfaced early on Fox News, where she was immediately labeled a 'crackpot' by Fred Barnes,"

Calling a spade a spade. You go Fred.

Also on Fox News, Bill O'Reilly called Sheehan's behavior "treasonous"...

Yet another misquote by the Far Left of what Bill said, which he has proven to be false by re-playing his REAL words.

Great "caption this pic" material:

Cindy uses hand gestures to describe the irony of her identification as an "American," but actually prefers the common salutation of COMRADE!

"the Swift Boating began,"

Well, since the Swift boaters were honest men speaking the truth I think that's fine that they "swift boat" this nut-job. They can try to sully the reputation of the heroes from Vietnam who were the swift boat veterans that stepped forward to speak the truth and reveal how Kerry was lying about his record and his secret missions on Christmas eve and all that, but Americans know better than to mindlessly accept their efforts at slander and dismissal of the problems with Sheehan. What do they think we are, Liberal? The majority of Americans are not that dumb.

I used to feel sorry for that woman, now I just think she is evil. I want to say, "Get thee behind me satan" and put her in the Lord's hands. And I just hope that someday she's ashamed of herself for the way she's been useing her son's death.

Cindy Sheehan is a lost soul in search of validation for herself. Her late son had nothing in agreement with her and so he went where he did and sacrificed for what he believed. Using his memory she has made her claim to 'victimization' status and once having so done, in her mind, justifys everything she does and says.

Contrary to most I APPLAUD the undeserved coverage of her by the media, rather than raling against it (which was my initial knee-jerk reaction), because it shows all the common folk how ludicrous her position/s are.

As to this Nation and how we are dragged through the muck in the world media, I'll go with Tony Blair's 'off the cuff' response to one of his critics in Parliament, when he arose and simply stated.....

"A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many want in... and how many want out."

Talk about hittin' the olde nail smack friggin' right on the head,...Mr. Blair did that. BRAVO!

I would only follow-up with this comment. We all know who those are who promised to leave if W was re-elected. Why are they still here???

Sheehan had based her claims against the administration on assertions by Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, then-National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice and other top officials that it was imperative to invade Iraq in order to stop Saddam Hussein from deploying weapons of mass destruction, which they insisted he possessed. Rice went so far as to invoke the specter of "a mushroom cloud" rising over the United States. No such weapons were found, and Hussein's armies offered only token resistance.

Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but he is not entitled to his own facts.

The Bush Administration did not say that the invasion of Iraq was imperetive in order to stop Saddam Hussein from deploying weapons of mass destruction. They never even implied that there were stockpiles of WMD that would be found if we invaded.

What they did say, repeatedly and on the record, in teensy-weensy little words even the Leftist moonbats should be able to understand, is that Iraq's refusal to live up to it's responsibilities under the Gulf War I cease fire to verifiably end it's pursuit of WMD required the United Nations and the United States to invade that country to enforce the terms of the cease fire. This position was upheld by the UN Security Council in UNSC 1441.

In UNSC 1441, Iraq was given one last chance to comply with the obligations of the cease fire or face invasion to compel compliance. They declined to do so and the invasion followed. It is really as simple as that.

"The right-wing blogosphere quickly spread tales of her divorce, her angry Republican in-laws, her supposed political flip-flops, her incendiary sloganeering and her association with known ticket-stub-carrying attendees of Fahrenheit 9/11."

Lets see she told a totally different story the first two times she talked to a news paper and we are being unfair.

She is a modern day Jane Fonda worthy of a tobacco juice facial.
