He sees them as unprofessional.

Unprofessional? That term is irrelevant in this context.

they really don't get anything done.

The problem is, if there is no 'counter protest,' Americans and the world begin to think that the likes of Cindy is the majority opinion. We don't want that. (The media is working hard to make it appear that way already.) I think they keep that misconception from occurring.

We did indeed have to take this to Sheehan! The MSM has put her on a pedestal to the point even our enemies have taken notice. Al Jazzeer has put her front and center in order to convince their followers this is how "most" Americans feel. This cannot go unchallenged, and cannot be ignored. By doing so it not only damages the moral of our troops but also the American public. The MSM totally ignores every good news story that originates in the Middle East. They do not want the American People to know of the fabulous things our Military is accomplishing by bringing freedom to people that up until last year had no idea what the word meant. During WWII there were newsreels weekly keeping the public updated on our accomplishments. Where are they now. If you listen strictly to the MSM, nothing happens except for our troops and innocent civilians being slaughtered. We hardly ever hear of the enemy being taken to task. The MSM is betraying the American People, they need to have it rubbed in their noses and broadcast by any means we can find!
 
If we want to get our message in the news we will have to continue to force it into the lenses and microphones of the MSM. The only way to accomplish this is to seek out where they are. We certainly cannot rely on them to come to us. I think that is patently obvious. The fact they did their best to downplay the numbers in Crawford should wake everyone up. We need to dog this _itch everywhere she goes with greater and greater numbers until she looses the spotlight. If you notice, today's news has very little Sheehan grandstanding because they would also have to comment on the protest against her. Perhaps we have taken a major step on silencing her leftist rhetoric. Time will tell.
