I have NO sympathy for her. Her son is worth ten of her. He deserved better.

She thinks she is the only one in this country who should be allowed to talk. She is the typical leftist lib who is very upset that the other side has a voice which we are using. We are getting the truth out about just who she is and she and her ilk can not stand that.

Those darned conservative diehards! Always bringing up those uncomfortable previous comments...

"Cindy Sheehan has emboldened the progressives who oppose the war and caused the conservative diehards who are behind the war to go into a defensive mode," said Michael Harrison, publisher of Talkers magazine, a trade publication for talk radio. "Cindy Sheehan is going to be a target, and they'll probably go through her past to find what they can to discredit her."

"Cindy Sheehan has emboldened the progressives..."

Why are Liberals too embarassed to call themselves Liberals? Who are they fooling with this 'progressive' nonsense?

"All of this other BS just clouds my message," Sheehan said."

The way this woman talks is just awful.

"Cindy Sheehan rode into town 10 days ago, a forlorn mother with a question for her president: Why did my son die in Iraq?"

Yeah right!

and she then pretends that all she wants in this whole world is a chance to speak with President Bush about her son, Casey, when in fact


it is amazing that sheehan is still trying to keep up this deceitfully vile charade!!!

"A quiet, heartfelt, personal letter to President Bush would have sufficed, Cindy, not this sideshow of a circus you've been party to."

Exactly right.

Sounds like the first line of Michael Moore's next "documentary".

Cindy, he was murdered because sobs such as yourself give encouragement to the international outlaws that murdered him by your actions and words.People of your ilk are so posessed with hatered for President Bush that you care not whom it hurts.

Why do you hate President Bush? You don't even know yourself. I have asked well over a hundred people who say they hate President Bush. I have yet to receive an intelligent ,corherent[sp?] answer.

Casey was an honorable individual. He had good character and good principles. The same cannot be said for you.

He gave his life so that you could dishonor everything he believed in and the principles he died for.

You should be very proud of yourself because other that the hate america crowd and America's enemies, no one else is.

I don't know if I should say this to you or not but here goes:

The type of people you are allaying yourself with will use you like a cheap whore and as soon as you are no further value to them, kick you into the nearest gutter.

And the international outlaws that murdered Casey would murder you just as quick as they murdered Casey.

You are so right. What a hero he was. If it's true that "No greater love hath a man than to lay down his life for his friends" (quoted badly, I know), then Casey really was a hero, to his buddies, and his country.

We should be honoring his nobility, courage,bravery and selflessness.

What mother would not be proud to have raised a son like that ? She disrespects and infantilizes him by her actions.

She's so unbelievably twisted and sick-minded that MATH itself can't even be used...she's nothing. Nothing but a shell of what used to be a woman.


And ten times nothing is nothing...this woman can't even be compared to her son.

"All of this other BS just clouds my message," Sheehan said. "My message is that of a brokenhearted mom sitting down in front of George Bush's ranch, wanting to know why my son died."

Sorry, Cindy. You lost sympathy and credibility with that bizarre neocon rant.

"That was the gift the president gave us, the gift of happiness, of being together," Cindy said.

Cindy Sheehan has already talked to President Bush, but once was not enough, she wants to be THE sideshow. I have no sympathy for her now, for she is doing all that she can deliberately to support terrorism.
