Cindy Sheehan, a cofounder of Gold Star Families for Peace and member of Military Families Speak Out, whose son Casey was killed in Iraq last April, also raised her voice in defense of activism at SF State. “If Bush thinks this is a just war, he should send his two little party-animal girls to fight it,” Sheehan said. “Otherwise, bring all our kids home now! You students can always count on me to help out in any way I can. I only live an hour away, and I will speak out for you anytime. Just give me a floor to sleep on, and I’ll be there.”
Because Martha's crime is so heinous, and she is surely a thread to society...Making beds and cooking dinner! She's not to be trusted out of jail, not like this terrorist grandmother is (hmm....does that mean she's a terrorist and a grandmother or a grandmother of a terrorist?), oh no, she's a regular saint compared to martha stewart [/sarcasm]
I never called Sheehan a terrorist. I didnt post this thread. Is she out of her right mind? Shes not far. Lynne Stewart is the terorrist.

***........It is far more likely that Ms. Sheehan has flip-flopped because she has either been unwittingly co-opted or has willingly aligned herself with some of the more virulent radical leftwing groups protesting the war. Ms. Sheehan posts her blog on both Michael Moore's website and at the website of Code Pink, the lovely leftists who sent $600,000 to the "insurgents" in Iraq and who protest every week outside Walter Reed hospital, in full view of the wounded soldiers recovering there.
Digging further, it has been discovered that Ms. Sheehan participated in a rally for Steve and Virginia Pearcy, the Sacramento couple that came under fire for hanging a U.S. soldier in effigy outside of their home. Ms. Sheehan also spoke at a rally at San Francisco State University, with the group "Students Against War". This rally was to honor Lynne Stewart, the radical lawyer whose most egregious client was Omar Abdul Rahman - the convicted bomber of the first WTC attacks.
During this rally, Ms. Sheehan stated, "Lynne is my human Atticus Finch. He did what he knew was right, but wasn't popular. That is what Lynne is doing." Sheehan further stated that, "we (Americans) have been killing people, we are responsible for death and destruction over the past 200 years." Sheehan further denoted George W. Bush as the "biggest terrorist" and ludicrously asserted that the United States was waging a "nuclear war" in Iraq. She further stated that Iraq is suffering under a "U.S. imposed sense of freedom and democracy". Yes, things must have been so much better under Saddam! Also at this rally, flyers entitled, "Should We Help the Iraqi Resistance?" were passed out. ..........***
As opposed to people in the middle east, who've been killing people for at least over a thousand years....
