Not effective at all. She was a mouthpiece of the radical left, and only showed how easy it is to mock groups like Code Pink, ANSWER, etc. When you cozy up to dictators like Chavez and openly degrade the U.S., your 15 minutes are up. Good riddance, Cindy.
I thank Sheehan for her effort in general and for the unknowable number of consciousnesses she raised. Effective? Only if we put an end to this dismal Iraq adventure. Cindy Sheehan has done more than her share.
She was very effective when she camped out in front of Bush's vacation home because it made the world realize how long Bush takes a vacation.
No, even though she had the right message and was incensed, as she should have been, that her son was killed in Bush's personal war. She didn't have the necessary thick skin, charisma or political savvy to stand up to the political machine and make Bush accountable.
Sheehan turned her pain into a protest against needless death in the name of patriotism. She attached another face to the consequences of our actions in Iraq and the ongoing crusade to sell us the war. Her courage came at a high price. Besides the loss of her son, another toll can be seen in her face. As a true patriot, she has my admiration. As a human being,...

Toby looks light in the loafers.
>>Toby looks light in the loafers.
Toby doesn’t even know that Bush lives in Crawford. It isn’t his “vacation home” as our intrepid “Tobester” thinks.
Nice to know the vapid provincials in Bagdad by the Bay are still just as insufferably brain dead as when I departed in 1998.
These people’s pictures and quotes could be in an online dictionary definition for “useless idiots”. Yes, I meant useless. Even the most hard core Bolshevik could not get anything useful out of the peculiar breed of zombies of the left that inhabit Northern CA.
It’s “near” Austin. Must be a lot of slackers in Crawford, he guesses.
It wasn’t hip to protest Clinton’s wars.
What? Nobody wants to mention the support Cindy got from David Duke?
An effective leader? Was was a pawn. It was painful to listen to her speak because you can tell she is feeble minded.
What? Is it Christmas ?
I am grinning from ear to ear....
ps: good riddance to bad rubbish
Stupidity run amok.
Didn't then-President CLinton make a "promise" that no American lives would be hurt or killed in the Balkan's COnflict?
Unknowable number of consciousnesses? You cannot make this up.
“Bush’s personal war”!??!?! Ugh.
This old biddy probably believes everything printed in Walter Scott’s Personality Parade also.
Of course you can’t make it up - it’s unknowable! :)
Or is number of consciousness plural? In that case THEY are unknowable!
Oh heck - it’s just unknowable, OK?
Never forget that these people are now the majority. They make the rules.
God help these United States.
It finally dawned on Cindy that the media has no further use for her and has moved on.
How come nobody realizes she wasn’t a leader but just a front for those who do not want their influence to be public?
Toby Dixon. Dixon. Dixon. Hmmm... Given that he lives in SF and he's far left, that last name sounds very appropriate for him.
