When Cindy Sheehan became a celebrity for her "peace" vigil outside President Bush's Texas ranch in 2005, the antiwar left hailed her as a heroine. A DailyKos.com blogger anointed her "'Mother Sheehan,' . . . the bringer of life who has been wronged by state power." A mainstream media columnist proclaimed that "the moral authority of parents who bury children killed in Iraq is absolute." Even before Mrs. Sheehan became a media darling, minority House Democrats called her as a witness at a June 2005 hearing about Britain's so-called Downing Street Memos.
Well, she's their problem now. On Wednesday members of the new House majority tried to hold a press conference to discuss their legislative priorities, but a group of hecklers, led by Mrs. Sheehan and chanting, "De-escalate, investigate, troops home now," forced Representative Rahm Emanuel to shut it down....
She is an outright anti-American activist, who has called the U.S. a "morally repugnant system," said that "this country is not worth dying for,"

I love it. They should have read a certain book by Mary Shelly.
Sometimes, the monster you create turns on you.
"Remember Cindy Sheehan"
Wasn't he that ugly dude?
Subscribers-only article. Can anyone post the rest of it?
No!. That was Janice Joplin ... voted "ugliest man on campus" University of Texas 1966.
Nope, Moderator would pull whole article then. They have no choice. 300 words maximum.
Who?
Where's Dave Letterman on all of this?
She's the one that stood on her son's coffin for so long. She fell off when he kept rolling over in his grave!!!!! You can also find her by searching for "The Bitch In The Ditch."
No, Why do you ask?
"She is an outright anti-American activist."
Yes, but she's also just an overdone fruitcake.
She won't be on the loose for long, The democrats won't tolerate her embarrassing them.
Can't post the whole thing, but the excerpt is pretty much 99% of the article.
She got her way didn't she. The very next day the demonrats were calling for an immediate end to the war in Iraq.
Sheehag speaks for Soros now, and when she speaks, the demons listen.
A letter my son sent to Sheehags site
I'm a soldier of U.S. Army stationed in Iraq. I no doubt have the up most respect for fallen soldiers and their families due to war.I myself have lost loved ones from combat. Every time I see your organization in the news I remind myself of the thousands of people who lost their lives on Sept. 11 and the fact that they would be proud of what we are doing here. I also remind myself that I signed the dotted line and took and oath to serve my country that I love. Which is something you need to remember as well. These fallen soldiers were not drafted or forced to enlist as American soldiers. If this is how you want them to be remembered then so be it. Just remember you are not taken seriously by many soldiers here. I have been forwarded the opportunity to meet many soldiers and all of them are confident in what we are doing here and committed to getting the job done. Pulling out now would make the sacrifices our soldiers have made utterly pointless. We are here to insure that we do not loose innocent Americans again and to protect those of you who disrespect us everyday. Do not bother to reply to this message for I will not bother to read it.
Dede's reply
Some of our biggest supporters are 9/11 families who do not ant anymore deaths in their names. I am sure you are aware that Iraq and the more than half a million innocent people killed there had nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks.
In Peace, Dede
The Dems' problem is that they took her off the payroll after the election.
You would hope that the rats have somehow wised up to Peace-Skank Sheehan but I doubt it.
