Cindy Sheehan: Commander in Grief

To expiate the pain of losing her firstborn son in the Iraq war, Cindy Sheehan decided to cheer herself up by engaging in Stalinist agitprop outside President Bush's Crawford ranch. It's the strangest method of grieving I've seen since Paul Wellstone's funeral. Someone needs to teach these liberals how to mourn.

Call me old-fashioned, but a grief-stricken war mother shouldn't have her own full-time PR flack. After your third profile on "Entertainment Tonight," you're no longer a grieving mom; you're a C-list celebrity trolling for a book deal or a reality show.

We're sorry about Ms. Sheehan's son, but the entire nation was attacked on 9/11. This isn't about her personal loss. America has been under relentless attack from Islamic terrorists for 20 years, culminating in a devastating attack on U.S. soil on 9/11. It's not going to stop unless we fight back, annihilate Muslim fanatics, destroy their bases, eliminate their sponsors and end all their hope. A lot more mothers will be grieving if our military policy is: No one gets hurt!

Fortunately, the Constitution vests authority to make foreign policy with the president of the United States, not with this week's sad story. But liberals think that since they have been able to produce a grieving mother, the commander in chief should step aside and let Cindy Sheehan make foreign policy for the nation. As Maureen Dowd said, it's "inhumane" for Bush not "to understand that the moral authority of parents who bury children killed in Iraq is absolute."

I'm not sure what "moral authority" is supposed to mean in that sentence, but if it has anything to do with Cindy Sheehan dictating America's foreign policy, then no, it is not "absolute." It's not even conditional, provisional, fleeting, theoretical or ephemeral.

Dowd's "absolute" moral authority column demonstrates, once again, what can happen when liberals start tossing around terms they don't understand like "absolute" and "moral." It seems that the inspiration for Dowd's column was also absolute. On the rocks.

She hit's a home run again!

[Peachdiane]

Whoo! Way to go Ann!

[Jag Wife]

I like Blondie!

For the most part I ignore this brainless tart. And NO, NOT EVERYBODY UNDERSTANDS THE PAIN OF LOSING A CHILD! SOME OF US DON'T HAVE ANY!!

But the point that libs don't seem to get is, IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT YOU, HONEY!! OTHER PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD HURT!!

The only part that concerns me in all this is, while we older military families can just blow off this sort of thing, I am concerned about how it will affect the younger, less experienced military and their families.

Im gonna be really disappointed if the next "We are the World" record doesnt include Cindy Sheehan singing along with Bono and Michael Jackson...

Can we get an interview with Cindy in People Magazine? I wanna know if she likes Brad or Leonardo best, what music she's listening to right now, and what her ideal dream date would be like...

Dontcha wish every girl could be like Cindy? {Insert dreamy Sigh here}....:rolleyes:

:barf:

To the MSM.............:gar:

On the bright side, Sheehan shows us what Democrats would say if they thought they were immunized from disagreement. Sheehan has called President Bush "that filth-spewer and warmonger." She says "America has been killing people on this continent since it was started" and "the killing has gone on unabated for over 200 years." She calls the U.S. government a "morally repugnant system" and says, "This country is not worth dying for." I have a feeling every time this gal opens her trap, Michael Moore gets a residuals check.

I want everyone on this board to remember that Sen. Chuck Hagel told a receptive press that Bush should have met with this woman again.

Bump.

Evidently, however, there are some things worth killing for. Sheehan recently said she only seemed calm "because if I started hitting something, I wouldn't stop 'til it was dead." It's a wonder Bush won't meet with her.

hehehehehehe

Ann you hit a homer here. I just wished...well nevermind.

[UhUhNoWay]

[Warlady]

Every pundit worth his salt has stated otherwise...that Bush should NOT meet with her and I agree. He has already met with her once and she said he was compassionate and sincere and she supported him. Whatever changed her mind is clearly political so why should he waste his time with someone who has an agenda and is dancing on her own dead son's grave? It's despicable and classless. Bush shouldn't even give her the time of day. Her own family is disowning her. Her own husband is divorcing her. She's a joke..sorry but it's true. I watched my parents grieve over my brother's death in Vietnam. But they would never even contemplate dishonoring his heroism the way Sheehan has her son. I can't even remotely understand her actions. Casey I'm so sorry your Mother has chosen this path. The rest of America or at least a majority of Americans want to honor your heroism and thank you for your sacrifice in promoting freedom across the globe. We appreciate you sacrifice even if your own Mother does not.
