This is a rather subdued article (to my surprise). Also a specific one to a point (names some names). I think it's just a matter of days before photos and quotes appear in the media that verify what Sheehan did, specifically, as to these offensive behaviors that some today are attempting to say didn't occur.
From the mere video of Sheehan I saw last night, she was making a big deal out of keeping her jacket on and her head covered which in itself should (and did) draw the attention of ANY even remotely observant security detail, particularly at that meeting of last evening (most the Cabinet was there, certainly President Bush was, all or just about all of Congress, for starters). Keeping that hood up covering her head while she was in doors (after being called out of her seating) was the most odd.
But, I'm hoping someone has photos of the "unfurling" of her banner/sign...anyone doing that in Congress seems already more than a problem on a behavioral basis and people trying to force this as an issue as to "free speech" (or not) are avoiding the issue and problem...and that is, erratic behavior such as this suggests an erratic personality. Given the proximity of that to who (President, et. al), there's a potential for a lot of harm and should have been removed for even basic security concerns.
Woolsey is a problem, too. This is reckless and even offensive behavior by her as a member of Congress and it seems to suggest her as erratic, also, for providing access to Sheehan, already obviously an erratic, unpredictable personality who has threatened the President and many more. Woolsey should be held accountable.
Some of the connections between Woolsey,Sheehan,the American Communist Party and every virulent anti-American subversive outfit you can think of, is mindboggling.There is an organised effort afoot to destroy our President and bring our country to it's knees and some Democrats are right in the middle of it.
Sheehan is a patsy for something bigger.The whole stinking mess has to be exposed.
I'd say the article is more of an intellectual look at the whole peace/war in Iraq protest movement. It's not meant to be an angry article.
How was class?Did you remember to give an apple to the teacher.Hehe
Many of the elected Democrats in Congress are active enemies of the USA. It's time we started enforcing some of our laws against treason. They are actively working for the defeat of the USA. kennedy. kerry. clinton. pilosey. reid. woolsey.
Class was fine. But this guy is as exciting as watching paint dry. Quite frankly, I'm tired of class, but that's to be expected in the home stretch. I'd rather be writing something.
I COMPLETELY agree with all that you write. And am familiar with AMERICAN SPECTATOR...but even for that site, the article seem subdued. I give them and the writer credit for BEING subdued, is my point, given the convolution of issues and "bigger" problems/issues, you are right.
Right, I understand that. My comments as to the article being subdued IS NOT A CRITICISM. Rather, a compliment.
Now we have a rather larger peace movement in the United States.. ??

Do we?
..or is that what the media and the orgs it seeks to aid and abet towards that end thru deception etc only report it as such?
This is an infantile debate. In fact, the whole peace movement is an infantile movement. There is to this day no one to negotiate "peace" with in Iraq.It's not a peace movement. It's a pro-terrorist movement. They want the terrorists to win in Iraq because it will make Bush look bad. It will lead to the immediate death of thousands --- and the possible subsequent death of millions, as do all "peace movement victories" --- but that's ok. As long as it makes Bush look bad.
In all seriousness, R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr. is a writer I've been following for years.He's quite good.
The democraps are trying to pull the woolsey over everyone's eyes. It won't work.
Even as long ago as 1972, the late author Robt Heinlein postulated the necessity of 'abandoned areas', in which 'law' did not apply, due to the impossibility of applying the 'law' and such areas, and for the convenience generally of the political class.
Much too polite for this POS. She should be arrested and locked up for seditious acts.
Woolsey should be censured by the Congress. At the very least.
