Dems hit Sheehan candidacy
A local Democratic Club has criticized the decision by anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan to run against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
"If you continue with this threat to embarrass the speaker, it is very possible that the voters will turn against the Democratic leadership in Congress and return the Republicans to the majority," stated a letter written by J. Paton Marshall, corresponding secretary for the Robert F. Kennedy Democratic Club.
"If that happens, all investigations will cease and justice for Bush and Cheney will be impossible," the letter stated.
The club endorsed and then published the letter in its August newsletter, said John Smith, club president.
Sheehan, whose 24-year-old son, Casey, was killed in Iraq in 2004, announced her candidacy Thursday.
"The country is ripe for a change," said Sheehan, who spoke at a podium with her son's photograph attached to it. "It's going to start right here and right now."
Sheehan said she would run on a platform of universal health care. She also wants to make college affordable and improve ethics in the legislative and executive branches.
Smith on Friday compared Sheehan's candidacy and attacks by progressives on other Democrats to a circular firing squad.
"We can't sit here and shoot at ourselves," Smith said. "We are not the obstruction. Even though (Sheehan) wants impeachment, it's not going to happen. It takes two-thirds of the Senate."
Instead of attacking other Democrats, progressives should be attacking Republicans who have blocked efforts to pull American forces out of Iraq, Smith said.
In addition, you can go to your local Democratic congressional member and ask how you can help them, Smith said.
Wrong! that wasn't it at all! They lost because they did not represent anything. They ran a "Vote Me because I'm a Republican"! They grew big government! The would not defend the border and people that had any principles told the party to get bent! Unlike Democraps who would vote for hitler if he was running, Conservatives have principles and will not vote for Democrap lite!
"Mmmmmm! Another hit of AIRPLANE GLUE!"
If that happens, all investigations will cease and justice for Bush and Cheney will be impossible,
Isn’t this astounding that the Dhims think that Bush and Cheney need what they perveredtly call “justice”.
I thought justice was supposed to be the truth, not a vindictive crusade against a legally elected President.
The left is so clever at perverting, distorting and abusing language and truth.
The Dhims and the left are the parties of lies, hate and envy.
They don’t need Cindy Sheehan to embarrass the speaker.
Nancy does a great job of embarrassing herself without any help at all.
No, that line will NEVER get old. Does the truth haunt you?
YAWN ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
“It is THEY who thrust this bitch in a ditch to the forefront of their campaign to embarrass and defeat America...”
They used her, those caring liberals are a ruthless bunch. Just look at how they operate. It’s terrible. Many liberals have mental problems, they are easy to use. Their leadership prefers it that way.
Pelosi’s Sleestak metamorphosis begins.
Surely, even the Dems can’t be seriously worried about Mama Moonbat, can they?
Nice! GO CIndy go!
Welcome. Now saggy can address his/her/its inane, boring clever (????) remarks to you for a while.
“Lacking money to prosecute a real campaign, she will fizzle into a footnote.”
The fact that she is running against Nancy is an indication that she feels used, she needs to be careful, this run and defeat could cause her to loose it forever, she might end up completely losing her mind, but the liberals don’t care, they already got all the use out of her that they need. They took a mentally unstable woman who suffered a loss and she was taking it in the worst way already because she didn’t believe in the war. Then the liberal leadership used her, knowing it would cause her to completely lose her mind, do they care, no, they are ruthless.

Exactly right.
I would be a lot more comfortable putting the efforts behind a conservative and having him ride the ticket in for 2008.
I hate crap shoots.
Because because I’ve seen many backfire in my state.
OH, how brutal a cartoon, but very true.
Put that on a bumpersticker. It'll go a long way to helping elect Hillary.
What sane person would wear shoes like that to their own press conference? eeuuww
