Hey JL! Probably because she's getting media attention. And they're afraid no doubt she'll start a national movement against the war.
Lt. Calley. Sorry, didn't mean to bust him. It's getting late.
It causes people to ask questions. Bush and his crew don't do very well under rational examination.
Just my impression of what's reported in the lamestream media.
Things are actually going great in Iraq. The bad news we hear is all the result of a great left wing conspiracy - and vast conspiracies arn't kooky when they benefit Bush.
Dear God are you serious?? Anti-Bush bias? They're so far up Bush's rear that they could be suppositories.
That's probably part of it. They seem awfully scared of her, seems like there may be more to it. Just a feeling.
Of course it hurts, You're getting screwed by an elephant
they don't have an anti-bush bias. why would they when bush is doing the bidding of their masters?
Well it sure does seem that they're trying to "kill" her off but they do that to any opposition. So what do you think it could be?
lol
I can't quite put my finger on it. I have been waaay too busy the past week to do any research on her, but something else is going on here. I am hoping things will be calm enough this weekend for me to actually sit down for more than five minutes and go do some snooping around.
Of course it hurts, You're getting screwed by an elephant
oops! Lieutenant GENERAL Lieutenant General William E. Odom, U.S. Army (Ret.)
Hope so! Id like to get your sense re Sheehan.
Yeah, I think that too. The MSM was and is under no obligatgion to give her any media time at all. They made this a national story for a reason.
God is always good!
If that were true, then none of us would have ever heard of Cindy Sheehan.
I disagree. Never underestimate the power of the net. There are many things now that have seen the light of day that NEVER would have if the net was not available.
Of course it hurts, You're getting screwed by an elephant
There have been numerous protests around the US by parents of soldiers that have been killed. Why is it suddenly a huge story? Why this woman? Why now?
Of course it hurts, You're getting screwed by an elephant
>If that were true, then none of us would have ever heard of Cindy Sheehan. I'm not sure what is going on hear, but I think it is a possibility that this story is a planned diversionary tactic. The MSM gets their orders from the elite, not from Bush or his administration.
God is always good!
If that were true, then none of us would have ever heard of Cindy Sheehan Hi Willie, I noticed your remark, and I hope you don't mind if I comment on it. I hear, frequently, about the "liberal" media who are against Bush, and are a bunch of cunning anti American devils. I do not watch TV, so I am at a disadvantage in that regard. The Mass Media I see, (Colorado Springs Gazzette), makes the BOOB TUBE Simpson's special look like a lecture on differential equations. To be clear, the media here shows glowing pictures of Laura Bush on the front page with exciting tripe as the caption, AP stories (and I do mean stories) about how "our president" is leading the world to a greater peace, and such . And little to nothing about any discontent with the policies of the current admin. The MSM I see seems to me to have little to nothing to do with the picture you paint, and from what I see, the vast powers of the media are supporting the Bush admin totally and with out question. I have a difficult time believing we are, in fact, seeing, the same media, that is so "liberal". Please respond and explain this anomaly. TIA.
you're even more cynical than i am. ;)
Dear God are you serious?? Anti-Bush bias? They're so far up Bush's rear that they could be suppositories. ROFLOL! Go Zip!
On that I disagree. Now the corporate media only reported a very little about the Downing Street memos and you think that wasnt accidental? Sheehan can be an aggrevation but unlike the Downing Street memos, she wont be able to take Bush out by asking questions thats why they'll report her story and not the whole story about the Downing Street memo or one of Bush's favorite issues CAFTA or the FTAA, The media and I mean ALL media is owned by six corporations .. print, tv, radio .. six. Now just which party is PRO corporation? The media organizations in charge of vetting our images of war have become fewer and bigger — and the news more uniform and gung ho. Six huge corporations now control the major U.S. media: Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation (FOX, HarperCollins, New York Post, Weekly Standard, TV Guide, DirecTV and 35 TV stations), General Electric (NBC, CNBC, MSNBC, Telemundo, Bravo, Universal Pictures and 28 TV stations), Time Warner (AOL, CNN, Warner Bros., Time and its 130-plus magazines), Disney (ABC, Disney Channel, ESPN, 10 TV and 72 radio stations), Viacom (CBS, MTV, Nickelodeon, Paramount Pictures, Simon & Schuster and 183 U.S. radio stations), and Bertelsmann (Random House and its more than 120 imprints worldwide, and Gruner + Jahr and its more than 110 magazines in 10 countries).
Well.. I'll just say I was a tad taken back by his statement and it was the first thing that came to my mind :P
Believe it or not Willie, with this statement you’re making Sheehan’s point. To compound a mistake with a steady stream of military caskets, isn’t being stuck; it’s being insane. Where but in politics can such a strategy be practiced without penalty? If private business were ‘stuck’ with a CEO who plodded ahead with a failed plan, that company would be short lived. But in the alternate universe called government, foreign policy is inflexible. How very odd not one bureaucrat was fired after the intelligence debacle of 9-11? How sickening it is to watch the neocons sell us CAFTA after claiming NAFTA is a success. And isn’t it deadly to wage war 6,000 miles away, when our own back door is permitted to be left open by a president who claims he can look into peoples hearts? Iraq was a precooked war, Willie. My proof is the PNAC paper trail. They rushed to get boots on the ground in order to illicit the very response you offer; “ …but now that we’re there.” The fact is the Muslim world doesn’t want us there, nor does a growing number of Americans who either wised up, or saw this scheme from the beginning. We here aren’t kooks, commies or cowards. We simply advocate a return to a sane foreign policy that puts America first. Our day is coming.
Yes she does JL. It has to do with being right. Symbols, especially defiant ones, can be dangerous to the plunders who claim to lead us. CS has nothing more to lose, and neither do a growing number of us. They've taken our jobs, our children, our unique culture, and this country. A simple spark can ignite a fire, and that's the danger of Cindy Sheehan. The cauldron of discontent is beginning to boil.
CS got noticed thanks to the internet. She isn't a creation of the MSM. And btw, her story is far more important than the 'runaway bride', the missing kid in Aruba, or the International space station. Sheehan kicked open the door of the MSM, not the other way around.
in case you missed that, willie.
Jethro, if Cindy Sheehan had been George Armstrong Custer's mother, she'd be whining about the "insanity" of our westward expansion; and our flag would only have 37 stars. IMHO, you need to get some testosterone injections.
I see. It now takes testosterone injections to invade a
nation, in the comfort of an Abrahms tank? I suggest Cindy Sheehan has more
testosterone than the entire warmonger crowd you're a part of. Hiding behind
your monitor, cheering this bloodlust isn't an act of courage - it's
cowardice.
I did not realize it was down to just 6!
In 2004, Bagdikian's revised and expanded book, The New Media Monopoly, shows that only 5 huge corporations -- Time Warner, Disney, Murdoch's News Corporation, Bertelsmann of Germany, and Viacom (formerly CBS) -- now control most of the media industry in the U.S. General Electric's NBC is a close sixth.
That's the way I see it. Every Bushbot warmonger that I've had the misfortune to meet has been a pathetic, impotent little person who is afraid of their own shadow and filled with hatred and self-loathing because of their own shortcomings. Just yesterday, some idiot was spouting off about how Cindy's kid would hate her for what she's doing. I looked the idiot square in the eyes and said, "I doubt that. Decent sons don't hate their mothers." He went away with his tail between his legs, simpering and looking like the fool that he is.
Well done willie green. If Custer is your hero, you need to read The great Crow nation's chief autobiography, "Chief Plenty Coup", he knew Custer and Custer was, like you, an arrogent fool, and your analogy also foolish. The western US in the late nineteenth century really does not have much in common with Iraq today, funny you did not notice that, Willie Green! And you suggesting America make Iraq a fifty first state? Because "They hate us because were free"? Don't tell me you fell for that one, Willie Green! Do you the US army is in Iraq to spread democracy, kind like Custer did in Montana?? Really what sort of point we're you trying to make here, Willie Green?
Jethro, you're the one who's apparently trying to claim to be an American "nationalist" without fully appreciating who or what we actually are. Here, let me help you understand that concept: NONE of these foreign military actions were authorized by formal declaration of war. If you're embarassed by these events, perhaps you should move to Switzerland.
ok, Mr. Testosterone, if you are so adamant in support of this war, what in the hell is stopping YOU from taking off your cheerleader dress and volunteering to go to Iraq? you know they're taking volunteers of all ages. i'm sick to death of people like you who advocate, "you go fight for me."
bullsh!t--when you have a corrupt ANTI-AMERICA/ANTI-AMERICAN government, you don't support them when they're wrong. you seriously need to read the constitution and the writings of our founders on this issue. try also doing some study of the history of wars. Start here: Who asked you to apologize for these actions, Willie Green? And why would you think these past actions have anything to do with the three year war in Iraq, Willie Green?
That Cindy Sheehan is a sniveling bimbo who doesn't understand that you sometimes have to choose sides in the war between Good and Evil, even though it's supposedly "none of your business". Saddam was an evil dictator.
And paying $50 a gallon for gas, you idiot.
We should thank the Nazis for giving us all those stark, frightening images. How else we gonna learn not to act like that? On the other hand, monkey see...
I'm too damn old, bimbo. Tell me, when did YOU register for the draft?
Let's see, you were concerned about Saddam being a dictator, that would mean you felt sorry for the people living under his rule, yet you have no problem "nuking" them. Do you ever stop to think before you post this moronic gibberish?
