Cindy Sheehan has become a liberal Pez dispenser.
And Bush-bashing conspiracy filmmaker Michael Moore is featuring extensive coverage of her protest on his web site.
The more I read about this woman, the more convinced I become that she is a total nutcase who is being completely manipulated by the likes of George Soros, Michael Moore and the others.
At first I felt sympathy for this grieving mother but now I think she is a total nutcase being manipulated by the extreme left.
While we all mourn the loss of Ms. Sheehan's son, her anger is misplaced and she appears to be going off the deep end.
With Sheehan the key is to keep a camera on her for the next week - and capture all of the evidence of her craziness that was ignored by the MSM in their buildup of her as a story. They won't be there - but someone with a video camera should get it down in real time.

Although the organization was initiated with a letter signed by over 100 celebrities calling for an end to America's “imperialist” wars, with the help of David Fenton, the founder of the public relations firm, Fenton Communications, and the rabidly anti-Bush Internet outfit, Moveon.org, the campaign was presented as a non-partisan patchwork of American life. But while Fenton may want Americans to see Win Without War as being “middle of the road,” the sum of its parts paints a vastly different picture.
Fenton Communications is a “socially responsible” PR firm with a penchant for backing Marxist regimes, and Win Without War boasts a number of “progressive” operatives, like the coalition's director, Tom Andrews, and Clinton employee, Maggie Williams, who use non-profits to front for the Democratic Party line.
In addition, elements of the fringe Left like Veterans for Peace, which held a solidarity convention in Havana with Cuban veterans of Angola in 1992, are also members of the Win Without War team. And, to top it off, funds are channeled through billionaire George Soros' Open Society Institute and the ultra-leftist Tides Foundation into many of the coalition members' bank accounts. Indeed, Win Without War isn't even close to the mainstream- it's the Left Bank.
The radical Left owes a great debt of gratitude to David Fenton. He has mixed Neo-Marxist ideology with junk science, trial lawyers, labor, progressive millionaires, politicians, and radical policy wonks to construct a complex, moneymaking left-wing advocacy empire. Fenton Communications reported billing $6 million dollars in 2002, and will likely make much more this year with high profile clients like The Heinz Family Foundation, the aforementioned Open Society Institute and Moveon.org.
The backbone of Win Without War is coalition member Moveon.org. Thousands of foot soldiers for the Democratic Internet sensation provide the bulk of Win Without War's membership. Moveon.org is currently partnering with Win Without War in a media campaign attacking the Bush administration's continued “ownership” of Iraq after the handover of sovereignty. The blatantly partisan ads also solicit donations for Moveon.org's 527 Political Action Committees.
Like Moveon.org, most Win Without War coalition members are closely linked to Fenton Communications. The NAACP, Medea Benjamin's Global Exchange and ice cream mogul Ben Cohen, founder of coalition member True Majority, all do business with Fenton. Other WWW members, like NOW, WAND, Peace Action and Fourth Freedom Forum have close ties with Fenton's rich clients or employees.

FRmail me to be added or removed from this Judaic/pro-Israel/Russian Jewry ping list.
Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.
The infamous "Crawford Peace House" (and old-hippie withdrawal clinic) has a map of the region with the word PALESTINE written across the whole area.
Apparently they don't recognize Israel's right to exist in any manner.
Let her talk. Soon she'll mention PNAC and the BFEE, etc. and show America how wacky she is. (May Casey Rest in Peace.)
"Now, it has another mission. Fenton has established a “war room” with CIP called The Iraq Policy Information Program (IPIP). Its main job is getting the anti-Bush foreign policy message out to the media and providing guests for talk shows. A featured speaker of the IPIP is former ambassador Joe Wilson, one of the Bush administration’s most vocal enemies. Like Moveon.org and Win Without War, the contact for the Iraq Policy Information Program is Fenton Communications. Win Without War also collects tax-deductible donations through CIP."

Man, that Joe Wilson was busy last year.

Crawford Cindy
This woman is a fraud. She is not interested in her son's death. She is besotted with the limelight and she will become more and more extreme and bizarre as long as she has the Michael Moore crowd to write and think for her. It is time for the rest of us to let the news media know we have had enough of her and will boycott any venues that publish/broadcast her drivel.
And after saying she would camp out every night in her tent, Sheehan made an exception Monday when she stayed in a bed-and-breakfast to prepare for an interview the next morning with ABC News.
The manipulators have chosen the perfect puppet, a middle aged woman who is quite skilled at cementing the "concerned/distressed" look on her face. She is either an actress or has some problem with her facial muscles.
Cindy unnaturally carried that "distressed" look all the way through her latest commercial.
I've known a lot of real grieving people, and none of them carried that "distressed eyebrows" look on their face the way she can.
So does the MSM, the UN, Europe, and all of our other enemies.
Has Harry 'DAAAAY-O' Belafonte shown up in Crawford yet
My grandmother, still alive today at age 103, lost a son in World War 2. My uncle Martin, then just 19, was killed by German artillery fire in Italy in 1943. Grandmother carries her grief to this day, with the greatest possible pride and dignity. She is, I believe, a far better representative of the bereaved than is this sadly exploited Sheehan person.
I think it would be great to pull a Howard Stern on this nutcase. Have someone infiltrate their organization (don't shower or shave - that goes for women too) and act sympathetic. When they call up the cameras from their useful idiots in the press, pull out a KKK hat and give Cindy a big hug then announce solidarity between the KKK and her movement.
Israel ain't going anywhere, Cindy.
Look on the bright side, the more these lefty scum spew their rhetoric the greater the chances of a 'Blue' state defecting. The more 'Moores' (pun intended), these freeked out Democreeps associate themselves with, the more the thinking members of the electorate will say to themselves, "although we don't like GW and we are against the war, these alternative trashbags are mentally unstable and that might just be bad for all of us".
