lengthy story on the turnout. 'They (Sheehan and Sharpton) were unable to drown out anti-Sheehan sentiments'

[Indy Pendance]

I don't remember if I linked this.

This should be prevented (using the Gold Star Mother/Father status for fund-raising). I agree. If you have any idea who to call (make sure they're not left though) and get their ear about stopping that. Do it. Anything we can do legitimately to declaw them and put a cog in their spokes we should be doing.

That's why shpould could leave her mother who had had a stroke to be back to Crawford. This is her moment in the sun.

[RobbyS]

Hadn't heard this. Do you have a link? But it fits that POS's personality.

[foreign devil]

Maybe we should all get behind this. I'll mention it to a couple of other blogs and find out if they know of any plans and maybe we can all get together with PW and everyone do their thing but this time we'll know who the players are. They know ANSWER and other lefties' dirty tactics as well so they can tell us what to watch out for.

Are you asking me if I recall anything that happened last year? Ha. Ask me if I recall anything that happened last week. NOT. Old age is not fun.

'A Liberal Nut Case'


Here's an op-ed piece that takes rather a harsher approach than most (including us) to Cindy Sheehan:


Since I am not one to sugarcoat a subject I will start by simply saying: Ms. Sheehan is a liberal nut case who needs to be put in her place.

I know these are strong words to use against a "grieving mother", but the time for grief is over. Ms. Sheehan's own hateful words ended her grievance. . . .

I think it is time for our gloves to come off. Many columnists around the country have "tip-toed" around the Sheehan controversy because they have respected the loss of her son. But now Ms. Sheehan is showing her true colors: Liberal activist, not loving mother. I think it is time to fight back. . . .

Appeasers are directly responsible for the death of Ms. Sheehan's son, not George W. Bush. If the whole country was united for the war in Iraq, I doubt if the terrorists would have started their suicide bombing campaign.

Using this logic Ms. Sheehan has become the biggest terrorist in the world, not George W. Bush as she so eloquently stated. . . .

One other point: Every time Ms. Sheehan opens her mouth in protest she is dragging the legacy of her son through liberal muck. Her son was a hero who volunteered to serve his county and died protecting the constitution. Now his mother has become a traitor who is using the war on terror to wage a war against a president whom she does not like.


What's noteworthy about this is the venue in which it appeared: the Arab News of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Maybe President Bush is succeeding in winning Arab hearts and minds.

FR will take the lead. I know they are working behind the scenes to get a plan of action. It's what we do best. Freep!

[WVNan]

You have Freepmail Indy.

[Txsleuth]

If you are talking about the Al Sharpton story (which the post you replied to is about)....

I just went to a thread about this story and *pinged* you...I hope it didn't hurt....lol

[foreign devil]

Hey there! Keep your chins up! :)

[Indy Pendance]

Thanks, I replied.

[Matchett-PI]

Thanks. You'll be happy to know that we're very familiar with Protest Warrior here, and have worked with them in the past. Here's one instance:

What? That piece came from the Arab News of Jeddah? Flying pig alert!

[sam_paine]

Fox News and specifically Brit Hume usually come through for conservative/GOP causes.

Not if you read the thread from yesterday! LOL. Peeps were dumping their TV and threatening boycotts because FNC had KATRINA coverage on instead of Crawford wall-to-wall!?!?!?! OMG!

[foreign devil]

Okey dokey! I've been put in my place. I wish the guys at Crawford had understood that. I guess the comments surrounding that from Freepers had me thinking some weren't familiar with the PW.

[Matchett-PI]

"It is my understanding that the D.C. Chapter does have something in the works. I'm just trying to think of ways to increase the crowd."

I figured they would. I hope we can massively outnumber the anti-American / anti-war kooks. I think it's going to be important.

[RobbyS]

Danke sehr!

[sam_paine]

now personally boycotting Ben and Jerry's.

Why in the WHIRLED would anyone ever buy anything but Blue Bell Ice Cream from Brenham, TX?

[sam_paine]

or was doing a bad job of pretending he knew nothing about the groups.

That is Brit's MO. He does that to elicit/beg/lead the story out of the correspondent.
