Got a call from the AP this morning about Cindy Sheehan quitting the 'peace' movement. I do hope that she takes the time to heal and find peace. She did hurt a lot of people over the past few years by her words, deeds and associations with the anti-American left here and abroad.

With VoteVets coming to the fore with George Soros and Democrat party fundraiser money behind them, Cindy is no longer needed as the 'face' of the so-called antiwar movement.

"I'm going home for awhile to try and be normal," she said.

Well that ought to keep her busy for the rest of her miserable life.

I'd call it the anti-American movement. They're opposed only to wars fought by America. You don't see them get excited at other wars around the world, to which they react with complete indifference, if not outright silence.

She has lost her family from this. She is going home with no family or job. I hope it was worth it Cindy

“hold the Democratic Party to the same standards that I held the Republican Party”

It’s been my experience that either party will sell a person down the river if the action would serve a political purpose.

Yup... from their invisible spaceships, where they read our minds and reprogram our thoughts.

Kristinn, I think you hit a great balance between condeming her actions but loving her as a person.

And of course noting how the left used her was excellent.

“”Those she got involved with in the anti-war movement realize it was to their benefit to keep her in that stage of anger.”

Great taser-shot to the America-haters....shows “mom” how badly she’s been had....by THEM!

By your remarks, you treated her with a heckuva lot more class and dignity than she ever did. She hurt a lot of people and besmirched not only her son’s good name, but all the others who paid the same price for our freedom...and of course, their loved ones.

You are too big for FreeRepublic Kristinn. You have achieved “Statesmanship” status. That was a very gentle and decent thing you did.

...when I started to hold the Democratic Party to the same standards that I held the Republican Party, support for my cause started to erode and the 'left' started labeling me with the same slurs that the right used

you were just a tool, now you are just a fool.......

‘Sheehan said she had sacrificed a 29-year marriage and endured threats to put all her energy into stopping the war. What she found, she wrote, was a movement “that often puts personal egos above peace and human life.” ‘

Like your own ego, Momma Wacko?

The Weekly Standard had a great comic bit about Sheehan circa 2008, in which nobody from Daily kos, or moveon.org, or huffington post would return her calls about a year ago.

Seems the ‘time’ came a bit earlier than they expected.

As for her ‘salvaging’ her relationship with her own family, good luck with that. They’ve been humiliated, abused, and also smeared due to her actions, insane assertions, and love of the camera’s.

I don’t think its coincidence the MSM stopped covering her few months ago, and now she feels the need to leave.

Anyone want to buy five beautiful acres in Crawford, Texas?" she wrote.

I wouldn't consider it without an environmental assessment.
