Cindy Sheehan has really lost her mind.

[raybia]

As a parent my heart goes out to Cindy Sheehan. I cannot imagine the grief that she is suffering.

I also can understand her feeling about the Bush Adminstration and our role in Iraq.

If she is using her suffering as a way to fuel her efforts to speak out about the wrongs of the U.S. Government, then I have to commend her for doing what all American should be doing anyway.

Only she knows what her true motives are but I'' give her the benefit of doubt.

To all of her critics, my advise for her would be, "F*** em! Keep doing what you feel in right."

To those who think she has lost her mind, I think she is one of the few that actually has a mind. The majority of Americans mind's are being controlled as we are indifferent and apathic about the state of our Union, foriegn policy, and the suffering of people, but we get really excited about the next episode of American Idol, Survival, and whats playing at the Multiplex.

A country of sheep being led to slaughter.

Obviously you are against the war...so let me put it to you like this. What if you go to an antiwar rally and lets say you get arrested. You are thrown in jail and while you are there your Mom or Dad use you as a rallying cry to continue what we are doing in Iraq. How would you feel????

I depends on whether they bailed me out of jail first.

Exactly.

that's nothing but sugar coating a bad circumstance. they know oil is pushing voters to the left and they want to minimize that by as much as possible.

you coud bulid vehicles right now out of different materials that would make the vehicle 50% cheaper to produce, twice as strong, and uses 4 times less energy and can run on electricity.

if they wanted to help they would make those vehicles. business take into account how much money they will make. they make more profit their way. that's why we need economic intervention to make things happen in this country.

or you could walk/bike/take the bus.

The object of any company is to make profit, and that isn't a bad thing.

Whatever, your point is invalid, you can change the channel or turn off the TV, so I don't feel for ya.

and once again you missed the point.

I am not saying it is a infringment of my "right to privacy" to have her come on tv, I'm saying it would be just as silly for me to say that if she is to be unreproachable for her actions or words.

She isn't immune to anyone's criticizim.

 

[Man-Thing]

actually your post was about her booksigning right?
and I posted somethign about her booksigning right?

seems to me the response is quite revelant, it's weird you missed it.

No, your post was a critique of what some right wingers said of her book signing and that being "no one showed up". I didn't say no one showed up, and since you quoted me, you attributed my post to saying something it didn't.

Every American, except convicts in some states has the right to vote.

Thanks to the New York Times, any terrorists on our soil is no longer using the telephone or internet to communicate. In other words, thanks to the New York Times, the terrorists will have an easier time launching the next terrorist attack, because we now have less access into what they are doing.

Just so you know, while congress in general was not knowledgeable about the wire tapping, the members that needed to know, knew. Also, just so you know, it is the president's perogative when it comes to national security, not congress.

Just as the Fore Fathers determined.

you know, i get really sick of this mindset. weren't we told by the bush administration after 9/11 that we should go about our lives as if 9/11 didn't happen to prove to terrorists that they can't make us live our lives in fear? now we've got the president abusing his power to reduce our civil rights and privacy all in the name of protecting us against terrorists. frankly, if we have to give up some of our freedoms to fight these terrorists then they've already won before they've even had a chance to strike again. we need to quit living in fear and allowing this administration to scare us into giving up our freedoms just to try and stop something that may or may not happen anyway. f**k neo-cons, f**k bush and f**k whoever bows down to him and his fearmongering cohorts. i'm sick of it!

I totally agree with you. We are in the Matrix.

However we have to be like Neo in that we realize that something is wrong with the world and fight to do something about it rather that just living in our own little personal world oblivous to everything thats happening.

there we go. at least that one is a little more current and still very much a relevent comparison.

LOL, by your logic, it seems you "attributed" your post with some unwanted message.

Alright!
