Cindy Sheehan Speaks Out Against Hillary
1010 WINS ^ | Oct 25, 2005 1:35 pm US/Eastern

Posted on 10/25/2005 10:50:45 AM PDT by Calpernia

Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan says her fellow opponents of American involvement in Iraq shouldn't support Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton's political aspirations unless she changes her stance on the issue.

Sheehan tells The Associated Press in Albany that Clinton won't get her support unless the New York Democrat comes out against the war in Iraq conflict and calls for a withdrawal of U-S troops.

Clinton backed the U-S invasion of Iraq in 2002 and has since supported troop-level expansions even while criticizing President Bush's handling of the aftermath.

Sheehan's son Casey died in Iraq last year. Her anti-war efforts drew national attention this summer when she camped outside Bush's Texas ranch while he vacationed there.

There's no immediate comment from Clinton on Sheehan's criticism.

Regarding Cindy -- it's long past time for Jaye P. Morgan to hit the gong on this act.

LOL Did anyone see Dayside? Cindy called in and she was heckled by audience members. One said "If you lay down in front of the White will you please NOT get up?" She hung up!

I hope these two broads scratch eachother's eyes out before the 2008 campaign gets under way. That will make the girls mad and they might not vote for the Salem Witch anymore.

America can continue to exist a little bit longer.

That clinches it for me. I won't support Hillary, either.

>>>>2000th soldier

From MoveOn newsletter:

Dear MoveOn member,

CNN just reported grim news: 2,000 American soldiers have now died in Iraq.

Their caskets have been hidden from view, and the news of their deaths has receded to the back pages. But the men and women who died in recent days were no less brave or less honorable than those who died in the first days of the war. It's time for us to publicly honor them—to remind the country that they're dying every day in the quagmire of Iraq—and ask, "How many more?"

Together we're organizing candlelight vigils at 6:30 p.m. tomorrow night—Wednesday, October 26, 2005. We're looking for MoveOn members who can host a vigil. That just means finding a place for people to gather, registering it online and gathering the group together when folks arrive.

If you can't host, we welcome everyone to attend a candlelight vigil tomorrow night. You can search for one near you at:

http://www.moveon.org/event/events/index.html?action_id=29&zip=08902&id=6195-1785791-w_HSqxzUh0_dOqQx1b_xcw&t=7

When you host a vigil, you'll fill out an online form indicating where your vigil will be located. Then, MoveOn, TrueMajority and Democracy for America members in your community will log on to our website and be able to find your vigil and attend it. We've made it easy for you to manage your vigil, with tools to limit the size of the vigil, communicate with people who will be attending, and more. Plus, once you register your vigil on the website, you can download a guide and other materials to help make your vigil a success.

If you can't host, it's really easy to attend a vigil—just RSVP, get some candles and show up. These vigils aren't rallies or places to give speeches. They are moments to solemnly come together and mark the sacrifice of those who have died and their families.


blah, blah, blah
