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???
Good question. I live around NYC and spoke to people before the election who were going to go to Canada. Now the are back to claiming the first election was stolen and won't give a straight answer when asked why they didn't leave. Must be that the Canadian medicine isn't all its cracked up to be.
DING DING DING DING!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ain't that the truth. Not only do I not want out, I don't even want to leave to visit anywhere else. I just flat out want to stay. I went to Canada once, but that was only to get a better view of America's Niagara Falls. I guess I'll pass thru Canada on my way to Alaska one day. I don't care if I never set foot in Europe, Asia, Africa, or South America. Australia doesn't seem so bad.
