On the occasion of the death of President Gerald Ford, anti-American activist Cindy Sheehan released a statement today blaming Ford for the war in Iraq and the "deaths of over 3000 American soldiers" in the conflict.
Sheehan, whose son Army Spc. Casey Sheehan was killed in Iraq in 2004, wrote about Ford on BuzzFlash.com, a leftist website.
Sheehan has become the face of the antiwar movement since she started stalking President Bush at his Crawford, Texas ranch in August, 2005. She is currently in Crawford, as is President Bush.
After writing the obligatory condolences on his passing, Sheehan ripped in to Ford:
Usually, burying a 93 year old loved one is sorrowful but, I believe his pardon of Richard Nixon is one of the factors that have led to the untimely deaths of over 3000 American soldiers and hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians in the Middle East. Just this month alone, 91 of our young people have met early, avoidable, unnecessary and tragic deaths in Bloody George's horrific war. In a month when most people picked out Christmas trees and had joy-filled celebrations in the season of lights, 91 of our nation's families went shopping for burial plots or urns and their holidays will never be the same again.
One of the talking heads on one of the cable news shows (does it matter which?) said that it was a "great thing for America" that Gerald Ford pardoned the crooked war criminal, Richard Nixon. He said that we don't make public spectacles out of trying our presidents in criminal courts. After all, we are not a "banana republic."
No, the United States of America is not a "banana republic" Mr. Talking Head, but since Nixon got away with his blatant crimes and every President since Nixon has skated away from office after having committed overt and covert crimes, we have on our hands, here, a situation that I am forced now to call: "Bloody George."
Bloody George struts around in a cloud of denial with his fake cowboy swagger, breaking our nation's laws and international laws as if he were immune from life's woes and above any law. What Mr. Talking Head was pointing out to us in his ridiculous commentary was that presidents are above the law that they swear to uphold. Presidents of other countries who are found guilty of murdering 148 people are not apparently above the law -- Bloody George plays banana republic justice in other countries while countenancing none of the same here in the U.S. of A.
Cindy Sheehan has long since passed in to buffoon status, but her dogged stalking of President Bush and her alliance with terrorist supporting leftists here in America and around the world makes her worth keeping an eye on. That and her fantasies of killing President Bush.
That's what I thought at first, too. Then I realized the poster was serious, she really released this cockadoodledoo and got it published in the media.
The woman is stark raving mad.
I was "felled" by the Christmas flu; are there people on this forum trashing Gerald Ford?
Absolutely Bonkers!
I think it is just about time to eviscerate her with a YouTube\ sing-along.
I would love to get her in a burka and drop her off in Iran and let them deal with her. She is a whackadoddle.

Murder Rates Up in Many Major U.S. Cities in 2006
"In New York, where the city reported 579 homicides through Dec. 24 — a nearly 10 percent increase from the year before"
"In Chicago, homicides through the first 11 months of the year were up 3.3 percent compared with the same period in 2005, reversing a four-year decline"
"Houston police attribute the 15 percent increase in the homicide count to the influx of Katrina evacuees from the Gulf Coast."
"Some cities, like Cincinnati — which has had 83 homicides so far, up from 79 in 2005 — posted their highest numbers ever. Others saw their highest death tolls in years."
"Oakland, Calif., had 148 homicides as of Wednesday, up 57 percent from last year "
ITS OFFICIAL!! AMERICA IS A QUAGMIRE...ANOTHER VIETNAM..... TIME TO PULL OUT!!!/sarc
Pathetic Munchausens freak.
What a Moon-bat, blaming someone who was President over 30 years ago for something that is happening to day. IF anything she should be blaming Jimmy Carter for kicking out the Shaw of Iran and starting Islamic terrorism. Or, how about getting on Clinton for refining what is and is not sex.
.....and,
They're coming to take me away hahah
They're coming to take me away ho-ho, hee-hee
To the funny farm
With flowers and trees and chirping birds
And basket weavers that twiddle their thumbs and toes
I had to check and see if this was from Scrappleface.
The SheHag is a real piece of work.
Just imagine what she would have done/said if somebody said anything close to this about her son.
Who the hell does she think she is.
No I was just referring to a mind set not relating to President Ford specifically just the inability to get things straight combined with paranoia.
Sorry to hear of your felling. Hopefully things will look up soon.
Okay, call me ignorant...but what world leader killed 148 people that she is talking about??
Along with gifts, my snot-nosed grandchildren brought little "extra" parting gift for the rest of the family. :-)
Howlin, I being a lady, usually don't appreciate that word, but in this instance it is more than appropriate. What an extremely cruel thing to say when a true gentleman has just passed away. Would someone please get Ms. Sheehan some mental help?
