"That video now serves as exhibit one for how the mainstream media covered up for Mrs. Sheehan........ as the latest tool of their campaign to destroy the presidency of George W. Bush."

This almost livid hatred of Bush expressed by the left is not normal.
Did not the right with just a tad more civility and decorum tolerate Clinton for eight years?

~ APPLAUSE ~


but will it be reported?

[BushisTheMan]

They can't now because the MSM monopoly is gone. True but there are other reasons too: -- the country is evenly split and the Bush base does not waver....it's the independents that go back and forth -- the country elected President Bush while there is a war going on -- we have all learned a lesson from how our Vietnam Vets were treated -- we will no longer be the SILENT majority thanks to our Vietnam Vets heroic struggle -- we all know the aftermath of what happened in Vietnam and Cambodia when we let the anti-war freaks win -- we all know these days that the media was not impartial during the Vietnam War and they are NOT impartial now either but at least now many more poeple are aware of it

Thanks for the ping BP.

Great job Kristinn!!! Will your interview on GGL be re-broadcast. I missed it. ;*(

Isn't it about time for a "FReeper News" daily newspaper and a "FreeRepublic" TV station??? It is Tuesday, afterall. ;*)

LWhile they will blame Karl Rove and the White House for Mrs. Sheehan's failure, we know it was the patriotic Americans at FreeRepublic.com who fought the good fight in the arena of ideas.

Are you sure Karl Rove is not a Freeper????

God bless all of you who went to Crawford to support our beloved troops, their mission, the CIC, and our military families. God bless JimRob and his family for this wonderful site and the excellent job they do for the cause of freedom, and God bless all of the FReepers who contribute in their own ways to do the same...not all soldiers wear uniforms, or combat fatigues. :-)

No, it is the same article, they just put the poll info about how Sheehan's protest had little affect on the American people waaay
at the bottom.
Big Surprise.

[stand watie]

as usual, these FReepers are the BEST!

they make me PROUD just to be a member of the forum.

Gleeful bttt!!

"I heard Byron York mention "D.C. on the 24th" last night. Let's hope FOX continues to get the message out as D.C. is going to be critical. There are just too many on the left who seem to have an awful lot of spare time on their hands. "

Yes, I have been told by a friend in DC that a hotel room cannot be found over the 24th of September and that they are predicting
10 to 15 million for this protest. I cannot believe that number is accurate, but I do believe it will be a huge protest. I hope the normal Americans in this country are disgusted by this display.

Hand, SALUTE!

[Kryptonite]

Good work. Many thanks for a job well done!

[Fudd Fan]

A laurel and hearty handshake!!
The sheriff is near!

Eight in 10 Americans--including overwhelming majorities of Democrats, Republicans and political independents--say Sheehan's protest has had no impact on their attitudes toward Iraq. While one in 10 say she has made them less likely to support the war, the same proportion say she has made them more likely to back the conflict.

I love it that Rush played a tape of ABC's Good Morning America's Claire Shipman. She told viewers this morning, according to their latest poll, Cindy Sheehan had little or no impact on changing opinions about the war.

[TomB]

Anybody remember this post?

I know Cindy Sheehan is a meaningless blip here at groupthink HQ FreeRepublic, but out here in the Real World, the media attention she's getting is taking root. This morning, I overheard boobs at our local supermarket talking about her, which means that the security moms are identifying with her. Considering that ALL the polls show popular support for the war is slipping, W's handlers should best pay attention and not dismiss this out of hand.

And thus the phd spaeketh.

[Republic]

I suppose, with his schedule and his responsibilities, that FReeping would not be on his schedule, but isn't kinda neat to think of Karl Rove, or our Vice President, or our Vice First Lady, Lynne Cheney, or our First Lady Laura, or our President ( oh boll me over! ), or Dr. Rice, or,, be still my heart, RUMMY < sigh >, or ANY of the STELLAR human beings who make up this mature, American security minded team visiting our forum ?

It is such a wonderful thought, it just makes ya grin.

Can't think of a better place for any of them to touch base with Americans who, for the most part, share their ideals and vision.

A good Freeper NEVER loses a bookmark that might be needed later on. :-)

Well done.

[Republic]

You and other fabulous patriots sent the Eagles UP into the stratosphere. Well done! Not enough words to express our deep, deep THANKS! It was a beautiful sight to see and a wondrous event expressing how the silent majority is willing and able and ready to stand in the gap!

To the lazy, leftist media co-sponsored by fenton communications....YOUR OWNERSHIP of INFORMATION delivered to your fellow AMERICANS is OVER!

You FAILED because you refused to tell both sides. EVER.

The TRUTH IS BEING OUTED EVERY SINGLE DAY AND WE ARE MORE FIRED UP THAN IN THE GOOD OL' CORRUPTION DAYS of your icon, billy klinton.

[OKIEDOC]

I believe that Sheehan has made the statement that she will go down in American history books for her anti-war stance.

She is on an ego driven self centered back slapping tour.

She is in my opinion psychology sick.
