Similarly, if the Jersey girls and their running dogs use bereavement as a safe haven from which to strike out, then they themselves have torn down the protection decent people afford the grieving.

#####

Worth repeating!

Exactly.

Coming from an Italian family, I remember many widowed women mourning in black..veil and all.. for one year and hardly uttering a word.

Don't get me wrong..I'm not saying widows have to follow that standard, but, as respect for the deceased, why not restrain it a bit?

The 4 widow's are no better than Sheehan.

All of them are using grief to make political statements.
What is Christian about using grief for political and personal gain?

For those here at FR defending them and condemning Ann better think twice because these 4 and Sheehan are using their grief to besmearch President Bush, Rice and the administration and worked to get Kerry elected.

I am not defending Ann'a words in the book but her words did cut thru to the crux of the matter.

After much thinking and hearing a few other things I decided against buying the book.

Those 4 are still using their victimhood to promote their hate speech and that is not right. The other families of 911 aren't out there using the deaths of their loved ones for personal gain or for political reasons as these 4 are. Some have said what Ann said wasn't Christian what is Christian about using their loved ones for political reasons and condemning the President? It wasn't the President who caused 911 it was the terroists.

Some have mentioned their children and what will the children think about what Ann said. Well what about what they said themselves about watching their husbands (fathers) burn to death, what about that their mothers are teaching them hatred for President Bush?

Ann shouldn't have said what she did or maybe could of at the very least said it not as abrasive but point well taken and I refuse to defend Ann's words and book and refuse to defend those 4 jersey women because by talking against Ann and her book is defending the 4 awful women.

In other words, what the author of this rambling piece points out, the Jersey Girls made Ann's point.

She was on his radio show - he used excerpts from it on his orfactor last night. It sounded like he cut off and used only what would work for his POV.

I loved when she was on his show for her previous book. She had to 'correct' him on SENATOR Joe not being on the HOUSE committee.

Whenever the demo/socialists/commies/hate-America group screams loud and long, we know a nerve has been struck. No one strikes those nerves like Ann. She uses twin .50 calibre machine guns to make her points, while others on our side use .22s.

What person describes the death of a loved one in such detail?

Someone making merchandise of that death...just like Ann said.

Apparently no one else is going to call you on this:

"(Let all the poisons that lurk in the mud hatch out...)"

That's a quote from Robert Grave's "I, Claudius" as the poisoned emperor contemplates the coup of Nero and Agrippina. His point was that the Roman Imperium was rotten to the core and that letting the poisons run rampant was somehow good for the country.

Is that what you're trying to imply? That several decades of bloddletting and anarchy will be beneficial?

Please explain.

Ann just has the guts to say what alot of us are thinking.

It's not just that. She says it in such a way that the ones on our side who are constantly selling us out to make points with the liberals are immediately exposed.

I have to admit that I don't think these women enjoyed their husbands dying but I do know and have thought for a long time that they do enjoy the publicity they're getting from it.

I think it's safe to say they didn't enjoy their husbands 'dying,' but they sure have enjoyed them 'being dead...'

I think that's where Ann coined the phrase "Political Human Shield" in the last few days. I don't recall her using that phrase in the book.

...and it was also an excuse for them to become political endorsees for Hanoi Kerry and Breck girl Edwards. Here she is at a rally standing right next to the Breck girl, and you know without fail she was either A.Blaming Bush for her husbands death or B.Saying if Gore won her husband would be alive. Freggin` dingbat though all but ignores 8 years of democrat terror arse-kissing which directly led to 911.

Don't you think it may be a bit disingenuous to applaud "what" someone did, but complain about "how" they did it?

I for one think that's a political/public relations version of expecting a soldier to act like a cop.

One should never expect to be humoured when trying to both "ask for help" and "supervise."

Martyrdom by proxy - that is, being raised to an exalted position (in this case: media celebrity and pundit) through the suffering of someone close to them is just the latest version of authority without responsibility that libs try to foist on us and, in the process, degrade our culture. I am simply electrified by how clearly the culture war battle lines have formed during the Bush presidency. I'm not a Buchanan fan, but he saw it clearly in his '92 convention speech.

Ann's relentless attack in her books with single word titles gives me some hope that we might yet win.
