Just when you think the Koz Kidz can't get any more disgusting: Framing Cindy Sheehan - we are making errors [1]. (Hat tip: KrustyKoot.)
This is really going to turn your stomach.
------------ START QUOTE ------------ We are making errors with references to Cindy Sheehan.
What are we trying to accomplish with promoting her?
Emphasizing her sacrifice.
Emphasizing her stating truth to power.
Emphasizing her plain speaking, clear statements.
Relate her vigil over her dead son to universal archtypes of all vigils over dead children killed by dictatorial rulers throughout all history.
My suggestions below:
1. We should call her "*Mother Sheehan*". We should never call her Cindy; I don't know her. "Mother Sheehan" is her title, and expresses her ceremonial status as a bereaved mother, calling forth over the dead body of her son. She is not a person now, she is a mother, which is not an expression of her individuality, but rather the expression of her eternal character: the mother, the bringer of life who has been wronged by state power.
2. We should use the word "sacrifice". She has sacrificed the most precious thing a mother has, the life and promise of her child.
3. We should use the word "useless" frequently. The death of her son is a useless sacrifise, done for the vanity of the ruler.
4. We should not use the name of her son. Her son is a symbol of all sons who have been sacrificed for this useless and criminal war.
5. The term "vigil" should be used to describe the persons and their patient petition to the dictatorial ruler. It is a vigil over the body of the dead son, killed by the ruler for his own purposes.
6. The right will try to INDIVIDUALIZE and SPECIALIZE her complaint. We must try to make her cry the UNIVERSAL and ETERNAL cry of all mothers whose children have died at the whim of the tyrannical and dictatorial ruler, who has made the decision to push children to the front of the army for his own, useless purposes. We must seek to make this like funeral vigils over all time. This is not Mother Sheehan's vigil, this is a vigil over the dead son, killed by the ruler for his own selfish reasons.
7. If there are any persons who are theatre professionals at the Sheenan vigil, they should arrange things much more theatrically.
8. If I was there, I would not let Mother Sheehan talk to the press, but I would have her talk only through a spokesperson. In particular, I would not allow her to argue with critics, and would allow no critics to approach her. Her dignity must be preserved. If lesser emissaries from the ruler arrive (C Rice, etc), these should not be allowed to speak to Mother Sheehan. ------------- END QUOTE -------------

Great Scott! The moonbats are building a cult around this woman like she's another Joanna Southcott.
Come and get it suckas! Mother Sheehans green eggs n spam!
She's allowing the sacrifice that her son made to be used as a political tool by those who hate everything that her son held dear.

Father Sheehan thinks his soon-to-be-ex wife is as crazy as we think she is!
agree don't give them this ground;
Sheehan suffered a loss, a terrible loss.
Casey was the one who gave the sacrifice; he sacrificed his life in the cause of freedom and liberty.
So, most of the country appears to have more respect for CASEY Sheehan than his mother does. And the left think that we should beatify her? He chose to serve his country, when he died she was thrilled by meeting the President, and now because her adult son chose to fight and was killed we should listen to her idea of how to achieve peace in the Middle East? What a maroon. If we cut and run, we will have no credibility, no power, and no respect in the world. That's just what we need. Casey's mom needs to go home to the family and mourn with them. Or, we could jail her for sedition.
Didn't Lee Marvin play her son "Kid Sheehan" in Cat Ballou
You are right. This is absolutely sickening!
Great point! Their hypocrisy is showing again.
These people are so consumed with hate, they don't even realize that maybe if we did take some of Iraq's oil, maybe we wouldn't be paying nearly 3 bucks a gallon for gas!
"These people are so consumed with hate, they don't even realize that maybe if we did take some of Iraq's oil"
They're so upset over oil MAYBE they should peddle bicycles to and from future destinations but we all know that won't ever happen.
It seems their hyprocrisy knows no bounds!
"Sheehan! Go away, Sheehan!"
