Sheehan Glad Bush Didn't Meet With Her

CRAWFORD, Texas - A woman who led an anti-war protest for nearly a month near President Bush's ranch said Tuesday that she's glad Bush never showed up to discuss her son's death in Iraq, saying the president's absence "galvanized the peace movement."

Cindy Sheehan's comments came as war protesters packed up their campsite near the ranch and prepared to leave Tuesday for a three-week bus tour.

"I look back on it, and I am very, very, very grateful he did not meet with me, because we have sparked and galvanized the peace movement," Sheehan told The Associated Press. "If he'd met with me, then I would have gone home, and it would have ended there."

OK, sure. It didn't appear you enjoyed the MSM attention. Nor the payoff of all you financial liabilities by the likes of Code Pink, MM, and the Ben and Jerry morons.

Cindy and her gang of terrorist supporters are going to have to pull off something BIG to compete with what "Mother Nature" just dumped in the south.

I think Bush should send Al Sheehan a thank you note! Approval of the War in Iraq went up by TEN PERCENT because of her "pis@ movement". HA. Ha.

But then, if you were at Camp Casey, "When you read about this in the history books, you can say I met Casey's mom."

"...but there is significant evidence that the vast majority of Americans still believe in the right to public dissent."

"Your mistake was engagement, viewing her as something to confront and counter."


You just contradicted yourself. Why can't we publically dissent if we don't agree with Crazy Cindy and the Moonbat Brigade?

Cindy's too dumb to have come up with a big word like "galvanized" all by herself.

No kidding! Just listened to audio of St. Cindy on the Laura Ingraham show--wow! I imagine if you put your ear to Cindy's head you could hear the ocean.

Last I checked the only galvanization has been Americans saying enough is enough, and taking to the streets across the country to protest ALL you damn hippie peaceniks from Crawford to Martinsdale to increasing in strength outside Walter Reed in support of our Troops, Our President, The Mission and our country.

Cindy's now fighting to be a player in the anti-war talk circuit and make money she'll never pay taxes on. She now has to convince she is a useful idiot to keep around before they discard her.

The MSM and libs took another page out of a 30 year old playbook. Like everything else before, it didn't budge Bush. They're frustrated and angrier and they don't know what to do next. The Left is literally on the ropes.

Exactly right. They don't know what to do next, and it must be driving them insane(those not already insane) that they cannot move Bush no matter what they do. They have only their own frame of reference, which is that when babies cry, people come to care for them. The level of hatred for Bush is higher than anything I've ever seen. Later this year, when drilling in ANWAR is approved, and John Roberts confirmed, you will start to see people on the left start talking about secession.

No, Cindy, you would have done exactly as you are doing - -finished out the month in Crawford getting all the camera face-time you could, and then you would have gotten back on the "Impeachment tour" bus and done EXACTLY what you're doing now.

You are a fool, and you take Americans for fools.

His hours at the carwash in Rapid City aren't flexible?

I think it galvanized the President's supporters more than the Commie-loving peaceniks!

I do, too. As I said on another thread, my cartoon 'gloves' are off:

Any word on the policing of the area? Just curious, the peaceniks usually leave a mess behind.

... talk about shooting herself in the foot.

Well the LSD is still working.

Maybe she'll get a 9mm and pull the trigger. That should rearrange her brain cells. Sorry, this woman really pees me off. This bitch is playing to our enemies; which, in turn will cause more American deaths. I'd lioke to use about 15 expletives to describe her attitude and actions.... grrrrr
