Rightest America Haters (Mama Moonbat Cindy Sheehan Rants Against DC GATHERING OF EAGLES on 3/17/07)

Rightest Amerca Haters Cindy Sheehan

I have received this warning in my in-box from friends who are telling me to "be careful:" February 08, 2007 Protecting the Vietnam Memorial from Leftist America Haters Apparently Saint Cindy "my firstborn was killed for the PNAC Neo-Con agenda to benefit Israel"* Sheehan is going to march on the Vietnam Memorial with Hanoi Jane in order to protest the Iraq War. Unfortunately, she will be met by patriotic American Vets. And by patriotic, I mean the kind that actually root for the U.S. to win its wars. U.S. Veterans Dispatch:

Leftist activists who march to the Pentagon next month will discover that their path won't be as clear as it has been in the past. The group, led by Cindy Sheehan, Jane Fonda, Ramsey Clark and their ilk, plan to gather March 17 at the Vietnam Memorial Wall to begin a march to protest America's involvement in the Iraq war. The date marks the fourth anniversary of the war's beginning. This time, however, protestors will see objectors if they spit on Iraqi veterans again, or throw paint on a war memorial. This time, they will encounter a buzz saw of Vietnam veterans and supporters who will gather to protect the Wall, and show their support for U.S. troops. The counter-protestors are calling themselves the Gathering of Eagles.

HT: Bill Faith http://mypetjawa.mu.nu/archives/186464.php

This so called "Gathering of Eagles" have taken the sacrifices of such good hearted and naive people like my son, Casey, who was lied to by his recruiter and had to follow orders from a deranged Commander in Chief and made these sacrifices obscene.

I have a few comments to these self-proclaimed patriots:

Firstly, if you really believed in this country and what you ostensibly "fought for" and what the over 58,000 Americans whose names are on the Vietnam Memorial died for, then you would be coming to DC to protect the march on March 17th. You would be there to make sure that our First Amendment rights were guarded and, even if you disagreed with what we were saying, you would cherish our right to do so.

Secondly, we will be joined by many Iraq Veterans (not Iraqi...they are Americans, not Iraqis) and Veterans for Peace who realize that the occupation of Iraq is illegal and immoral. I have never spat on anything. I have never thrown paint on anything. I wonder which propaganda for profit news source these "Eagles" get their information from?

Thirdly, do you wish that the Iraq War Memorial have 58,000 names on it? Another generation of young people lost and families destroyed for lies? How can you "root" for America to win a war that was lost before the invasion? You were abused and misused in your war of choice when this cowardly administration used every means possible to avoid serving over in that abominable war zone.

We "leftists" love our country so much that we are willing to sacrifice much to try and make her better. The America that I am working for will not invade other countries in wars of aggression to commit crimes against humanity. The America that I am struggling for will not use weapons of mass destruction such as white phosphorous and agent orange on innocent civilians. The America that my son died for will not torture people to get compromised information and further endanger our troops in the field. The America that I am giving my entire life for does not cut VA benefits after sending soldiers to do and witness unspeakable things in war and will not abandon mentally or physically wounded troops.

The America that I long for is one that uses her strength to mediate conflict in the world peacefully, and not bullying force to show how really weak that we are.

To the "Gathering of Eagles" I would like to remind you all of the First Amendment:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

And, poor misguided, brainwashed and propagandized, "Eagles" may I remind you of your service oath:

"I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God." (Title 10, US Code; Act of 5 May 1960 replacing the wording first adopted in 1789, with amendment effective 5 October 1962).

I realize that it is certainly dichotomous to obey the President of the United States when he is an enemy to the Constitution, but your Uniform Code of Military Justice also requires you to disobey illegal orders.

This war in Iraq is illegal by our own Constitution and international law and immoral by all just war theories.

We will be there on March 17th and our love of America and our love of humanity will propel us forward to march that day and work the next towards peace and justice.

We would love it if you would join us on that day thereby fulfilling the oath that I know you took with pride and honor, as did my son, over 3100 other brave young Americans and the tens of thousands of names on that tragic wall of death.

Please help us shorten the length of the next wall.

Let's ask Mo. I haven't wanted to ask. Now's a good time, though.

Mo, do you have any update on Tonk?

I'm watching the House floor debate on c-span. Robert Kennedy(D-RI) is ranting and raving about the "surge".

I swear, T, he sounds and even looks like Cindy Sheehan!

I never had noticed that before! LOL!

To the "Gathering of Eagles" I would like to remind you all of the First Amendment:

Thank you for reminding me that I have the same rights that you do. I have the right to protest the protester don't I?

I think she should be reminded of (this)

Is there going to be a ride??? I'm in..

Your question is ignorant of the reason we are all going. It's a standoff, not a celebration.

This is not going to set well with veterans of any war.

I am not a war vet, but I am a vet. It don't sit well with me. It's a darn good thing I'm not calling the shots at the Pentagon. I'd call in an air strike, by God.

Why is she always talking about Casey like he was some addled, loony retard?? I question that she cared about him at all. No loving mother would talk about her son that way!

The thing that ties these radical anti-war types, whether they will admit to it or not is.....(drum roll)

MARXISM

I'd like to see them even try to deny it. That would be a pay-per-view day. The day we see a free-market Capitalist among the ranks of the DC Socialists, Marxist-"Humanists" (I still get a kick out of that banner), the A.N.S.W.E.R. crowd, et. al. will be the day the world ends. What they hate about the war, what really twists their panties in a wad and keeps them awake at night better than a vat of caffeine could ever do, is the fact that BILLIONS of U.S. taxpayer dollars are tied up in the war and our great defense industry rather than in Socialist programs. These parasites want their free healthcare, their free housing, their push-paper-but-produce-nothing Government jobs so badly that it makes them physically ill. The WAR and the TAX-CUTS make these things impossible. Big Bad George took the M-O-N-E-Y away, and it's killing them. They were so close to National Healthcare in 1993 that they could taste it, and with 60 seconds left on the play clock the GOP scored a goal, took away the congress, and the Left won't even have the chance of seeing their precious Socialism until 2008 at the earliest.

It's driving them crazy, indeed it's driven them crazy every day since then, and just typing about it is putting a wide smile on my face.

"I VOW to the 58,000 + Brothers and Sisters on The Viet Nam Wall who never came home and to those who died at home from injuries and from broken hearts. I will do everything I LEGALLY can to expose Hanoi Kerry once and for all. I will not tire, I will not falter, and I will not fail. I solemnly vow to do all I can to restore your honor until I give my last breath on earth.

My good friend, Ed McHenry, would be 60 now. He stuck his head up at the wrong time while serving with the Army in Phu Bai. I found his name on the wall, but I'd rather find him at my corner bar. I'm proud of Ed.

It is MY wall! At least a dozen of the names on that wall are young men I knew and served with... Her 1st Amendment rights are no more important than mine and I resent her movement attempting to denigrate the memory of their noble sacrifice. Where is Jim "BS" Webb on this? What does he say about his new friends?

Yes, I am very familiar with our 1st Amendment. Maybe Jihad Sheehan should read it for herself. It prevents the US Government from interfering with people who wish to “peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government...”, it does not prevent me from peacefully assembling to express my contempt for those who support the enemies of my country.

I wonder why my oath of enlistment was included. I swore to “...defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic...”, and this bunch of traitorous seditionist things are domestic enemies.

I can't believe that she refers to her son in this manner. She really has no respect for him whatsoever. Talk about 'DERANGED'.
