The Column in the Chicago Sun Times very accurately sets forth the reasons for Cindy Sheehan's behavior and why it is not resonating with the US Public. First Cindy does not speak for all of the parents. She speaks for a minority of the parents.
Could you imagine the US Media in WW2 demanding to know from FDR what was our exit strategy? Or why the War was taking so long? Or why the war was costing so much? What if we had not dropped the Atomic Bombs on Japan? And had lost one million American Dead, and ten million wounded?

We have lost less than 2000 Soldiers in Operation Iraqi Freedom. Cindy Sheehan is buddies with groups supporting the
Terrorists who did kill her Son. She is a prejorative Liar.
ABC has produced her diatribe letter to Ted Koppel. Her PR Campaign for the extreme Left is not working.

Regardless of your party we cannot cut and run. The results would be disasterous. Also calling our troops "Children" is another semantics game of the MSM to conclude that those who volunteer to serve are not mentally competent. It is insulting to those Patriots who do serve. It is the same old Leftist tactics with a new spin. It is in fact a fraud.

The problem the extreme left has to attack the Troops without appearing to directly attack them. So they insist they were hoodwinked or bamboozeled. That they are all low income. That the Members of Congress have no family in the War. There are 5 at least who have children in the Military. Duncan Hunter's Son is a Marine. Because of the web the MSM no longer has a monopoly on information and opinion.

With so much of the Left and especially the Press pool writing articles with the mantra "If it Bleeds it Leads" and no stories of heroism, sacrifice, humanity, or improvement and progress it is no wonder our Fighting Men and Women see the Terrorists and the Media at home as being partners.

This has been bothering me for some time. Below, I have cut and pasted a comment, from a link provided on another thread, that explains their "thought process" or tyrannical dictatorial demands and tactics.

"Why did the Bush Administration and the UK tell lies in order to orchestrate a war where more civilians would be lured into a national service training program, such as the army?"

These commies have gone completely and totally insane.

Thanks for the thread, Syncro.

I'm joining the caravan when it comes through Fresno tomorrow but only as far as Kingsburg.

See you then.

Thanks! Hey payback for the kids. I'm sure they embarrased you plenty when they were younger. Now it's your turn.

I doubt you'll see much in the MSM but here is a shot of some riders passing by the Camp Casey area.

PRO-WAR bikers numbering around 60 or 70 paraded past Camp Casey Saturday morning in favor of President Bush and supporting troops.

Syncro, I was at the Caravan Rally this morning in Vacaville and drove to Sacramento to Channel 10. When I was there I met a wonderful young soldier named Greg Parkinson who just arrived here from Iraq and is on leave for 14 days. He gave me his e-mail address and I lost it.
I'd like to get in touch with him or have him get in touch with me. Thanks anyone for your help. Beth Barnat from Winters, CA (bethtopaz@yahoo.com / 530-902-4333)

We reminisced about Baez's nice voice

My dad - a USMC Korea combat vet, and USAF Vietnam vet - has this to say about Baez. "Damn, but that b*tch can sing."

God bless you Lei and your son Jensen for all you are doing for our great country. Please thank him for his service because he's truly appreciated. Thank you for raising a young man who understands the gift of freedom and the sacrifices necessary to preserve it. Your family is in my prayers, may God shield Jensen and his brothers and sisters thoughout their service so they may return to us soon.

I plan on visiting "The Yellow Rose" and "Camp Qualls" and it would be an honor to meet you.
