Deal with it, you’re nothing but fascist neocon warmongers at The Nation.
Go Mother Sheehan Go!
I think the poster makes a significant connection here. Maybe “the Nation” has grasped something that might make them want to consider their stance a bit.
One of the most odious tactics of “radicals” is to take one element of conventional morality (in this case “peace”), blow it up out of all proportion, and then use it to steamroller everyone who disagrees with them. Everyone wants to be at peace. Nobody in their right minds WANTS to fight a war, its something you do when you have to. War is bad, but most sane people also realise its not the worst thing. But radicals can conveniantly sidestep any criticsim by latching onto this war=bad emotion. It’s intellectually very lazy (and dishonest).
Thus, Cindy Sheehan is an antiwar activist. She is best known as being an antiwar activist. Therefore, if you disagree with her, about ANYTHING, it follows you must be a warmonger! That is the logic she employs. If you were to tell her that her top didnt go with her hat she would accuse you of being a neocon. I’d be interested to see her doing housework - she’d probably be accusing the dishwasher of working for the CIA.
Sorry Cindy, it doesnt work like that. As a “representative of the people” you would occasionally have to do other things other than complain about war in Iraq. What “the Nation” is saying (and actually what most of the US is saying) is that you shouldn’t run not because you are anti war but because you’re an inexperienced one-issue harridan who’d be crap at the job.
How dare she have an independent thought of her own! The central authority did NOT approve of it...
When you play with the fires of fascism, you're going to get burned.
When Cindy Moonbat looks ridiculous even to leftists at “The Nation” then you know she is off in Never-Never Land.....
Priceless. You really can't make this stuff up.
Leftist attacking leftist - the history of the progressive movement since the publication of “The Communist Manifesto.” Cindy Sheehan, in my opinion, is best described by the Leninist term “useful idiot,” since she has done good work for the left without realizing that she is among the first to be liquidated once the movement gains real power.
Ironically enough, the staff at “The Nation” also fits that description.
