Just like Sarah Brady, Cindy Sheehan is exploiting the tragic personal sacrifice of a family member to make an emotional statement on the national political stage.

No, she is mad as hell her son died for a damn lie, got it?

I agree. Sheehan's son has been dead a very short time and anyone who accuses her of exploiting his death is pretty fricken sick IMO.

She is now taking it upon herself to do something about this. This is a courages act that subjects her to vicious attacks from people like you, Hannity, Michael Savage and the average Freeper. Recall the post WhiteSands made yesterday: "If she had taken better care of her son he wouldn't be dead now".

Holy cow, someone actually said some bullshit like that? Like it's Sheehan's fault that the Center for Army Lessons Learned and the Urban Warfare Journal have been screaming for at least six years (and it probably goes back at least a decade) that urban warfare training needed to be a priority for the army, and their pleas were unanswered? Like it's her fault that "Help is on the way" for the military, and nothing changed from the Clinton era? I haven't followed the Cindy Sheehan threads, but had to respond when I read the quoted line. I haven't had that much beer tonight but my mind still can't work its way around the reasoning that parenting caused a soldier's death.

Iraq isn't our damn business,

That's water over the dam, Jethro.
If we were debating whether Papa Bush should help boot Saddam out of Kuwait, I'd probably agree with you.
Let the stinking OPECKers deal with it themselves.
But that's NOT what happened, so the issue becomes what do we do since we ARE involved?
As far as I'm concerned, if Papa Bush got us involved, he shoulda finished Saddam back in Gulf I.
And Klinton should have obliterated Sadddam for violating the no-fly zone.
And Dubya shoulda dropped a grenade down Saddam's "spider hole" instead of capturing the SOB and pi$$ing away more taxpayer dollars on a "trial".
And I don't give a rat's patoot whether or not there were any WMDs.

But none of that happened either.
So we're stuck with "nation building".
I don't like it, but at this point, it is the "right" thing to do.
(as opposed to letting the country collapse into anarchy and civil war.)

Why? We had NO business getting involved in that either esp when Saddam was given the go ahead to attack Kuwait and he was told we had no interest in that conflict. So then we attack? What horseshit.

First, get the fools who forced us into this mess out of office.

They have aptly demonstrated that they cannot competently handle the situation.

Look at the quotes from Bush's dad on why he did not knock off Saddam after the first Gulf War. Both Bush Sr. and Powell predicted the quagmire that we now face.

Also, what makes you think thats not exactly what's happened? And WHY is any of this our business? We are the invaders period. They dont want us there, they never did. It's all a fraud we've done enough damage there now its in a total friggen mess and IMO a civil war is exactly what was planned from the beginning. The big solution is going to be dividing Iraq into three sections. SO much for taking democracy to Iraq. And thats another fraud I thought democracy was the will of the people.. if that is what Bush and his cohorts want to spread then give them democracy its their will that the US leaves.

Lt Odom blows your hypothesis out of the water here. You never, never, never chase good money after bad. The prudent thing to do is to cut your losses. But the elites don't care about the human losses. It's all about their power and their profit as is the case with EVERY war.

We had NO business getting involved in that either esp when Saddam was given the go ahead to attack Kuwait and he was told we had no interest in that conflict.

Before Saddam attacked Kuwait, he called in our Ambassador April Glaspie and asked her what the Americans thought of the plan. Iraq did have a claim to the region, but Saddam wanted to bounce it off the Americans before going in.

When Saddam asked: "Can we go into Kuwait?" Glaspie responded "The US doesn't interfere in Arab affairs.".

The casualty figures are way too low.
If there was truly a general uprising of the local populace, casualties would be at least 100x greater and there would be a massive migration of refugees.

This isn't what happened in Viet Nam. There a large percentage of the general population supported the insurgents but didn't actually fight. Hence, they weren't killed unless the Americans had been drinking that day or a Sgt. Cally type situation was in progress. Why would it be any different in Iraq?

...there would be a massive migration of refugees

We didn't see this in Viet Nam. We didn't see this in france during WW II. Must the world morph into something new in order to protect Bush from his silly mistakes?

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.
Given their anti-Bush bias, I trust that they'd trumpet much higher figures if that's what was happening.

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.

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.

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.

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.
