ABC News Anchor Demands Sheehan Cease Anti-War Protests
A Semi-News/Semi-Satire from AzConservative ^ | 22 August 2009 | John Semmens

Posted on 08/26/2009 9:56:04 AM PDT by John Semmens

ABC News’ Charles Gibson said he was confident that he was speaking for all Americans when he suggested that long-time anti-war protester Cindy Sheehan “give it a rest.”

“Look, as far we are concerned, Sheehan’s antics have served their purpose,” Gibson declared. “Bush is gone. We have a new president. We should all be supporting him in the difficult job of managing the country’s war effort. We should not be tearing him down and aiding the nation’s enemies.”

Gibson insisted he meant no disrespect for Ms. Sheehan. “She did a marvelous job when it was needed,” Gibson said. “Her time in the spotlight is over. Enough is enough. When a player’s part is over it’s time to leave the stage.”

This isn’t satire. Someone just telepathically probed Charlie Gibson’s mind and wrote it down.

"She did a marvelous job when needed".

Translation: "She did a marvelous job when she was opposing a Republican president."

Um, where’s the satire? Not the tag, the actual satire? I don’t see any. None whatsoever...

Here are my thoughts on the subject.

Charles Gibson is a jackass. He does NOT speak for the vast majority of Americans much less all Americans and anyone who says he does is a BALD FACED PATHOLOGICAL LIAR.

And, Charles Gibson is a BALD FACED PATHLOGICAL LIAR!!!!!!!

Boy that really tells you a lot doesn’t it. Talk about double standards and all. This belongs in the Hall of shame for the MSM.

Charlie Gibson is a weasel.

Recall what he said about Ms. Pelosi when she became speaker? That drivel about taking care of the children and taking of the country at the same time?

Mr. Gibson outed himself a long time ago.

Charlie, you magnificent putz.

What is really sad is that I used to see satire immediately....now, not so much.

Hard to tell Satire from the real thing these days isn't it? The left is doing their best to keep the war out of the news, especially the part about this being the worse year for casualties in Afghanistan and the year isn't over yet.

Where is the daily body count, the pictures of coffins coming home, the constant screaming about ending the war? Silence from the hypocritical left whose real purpose was to discredit Republicans, not stop the war. Cindy Sheenan at least has the guts to stand up for her beliefs and she also told the dems what she thought of their two faced antics.

To paraphrase another freeper; Gibson demonstrates weapons-grade hypocrisy with this quote.

Not just outed him, got him to admit he was tearing down America ~ keep this one in mind for the next Administration so Charlie can be scheduled for his hanging.
