For education and discussion only. Not for commercial use. Crawford, Texas (AHN) - Pressure mounted against anti-war protester and mother of fallen Army Spc. Casey Sheehan Friday from millions of bloggers as well as cable news and talk radio outlets began to rip her intentions as well as her motivations to shreds. Ms. Sheehan is camping out on the road that leads to President Bush's Crawford, Texas ranch for the entire month of August where Bush makes an annual visit. The President continues his day-to-day business with daily briefings, trips to sign bills around the nation, and meets with organizations across the country while returning to the ranch by the afternoon. The President's motorcade has passed Ms. Sheehan numerous times without stopping to address her or her fellow anti-war protesters who claim they want to ask the president questions about "why he lied to them about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and an Al-Qaeda link to the country," which reportedly never existed. But as the week went on, numerous stories began to emerge about Ms. Sheehan and her ties to radical left-wing anti-war groups as well as inaccurate versions of her first meeting with President Bush at Fort Lewis in Washington. An unearthed article documented in the Vacaville Reporter News contradicted the current story Sheehan has been playing in front of dozens of reporters and media outlets across the world. Now Ms. Sheehan finds herself in an even deeper credibility issues as bloggers from various websites including Free Republic.com and military forums on the Internet discovered images during a google search of the first meeting of Bush and Sheehan where the President is giving Sheehan a consoling kiss on her cheek in a group family photo. Ms. Sheehan made no official comment about the discovery of the photo's on Friday but claims that she will move her protest to the sidewalks in front of the White House where the President is scheduled to return after Labor Day weekend.

Agreed but I just wonder if there isnt more to this. They'd like nothing better than to incite these people IMO.
In today's political environment I'm surprised the neocons don't just invite her to a fancy govt shindig then make fun of her afterward for now knowing which fork to use for the smoked salmon.
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...
LOL! You know the truth of the matter is that the neocons have taken over the Democrat party too.. they just arent as visible YET.
I'm not so sure. What I can see them doing is trying to confuse, mixup and dilute her message, by having other activists with varying agenda vying for media time at her protest.
Oh I agree that is typical but it wouldnt surprise me in the least if stirring the pot to get a physical confrontation started. Think of the illegal issue and the films, watching those I couldnt help but notice the non Mexican people among the illegals stirring them up. I think there are those who are pushing this stuff to the limits to bring about violence.
I'm amazed at the discipline and control the MMP have shown. And they have been and continue to be provoked. The antiwar crowd may get a taste of this tactic, we'll see. If so, I hope they show as much restraint.
ok, dude, explain your homepage. ;)
It's his ATM pin number, so he won't forget it.
and the skull??
I missed the skull.
Wow! It took a scroll right to see that!
i know!
It was an image I found on google's image search. I forget what I was searching for now. But, as my main issue is finding the truth of human nature, I thought this was cool. Assuming this image isn't a fake (note the sinus passages and orbital socket) then WTF is a hominid (?) skull doing with fangs? The foremost front teeth look like they're for grinding. The fangs are most definitely for tearing. Animals have teeth designed for their diets. Horses have all flat teeth, cats have all sharp teeth. Humans have a combination as we eat everything, grains, vegetables & meat. So what else would have a combination? I just thought this was weird and cause for reflection, so it's my homepage.

I guess it wouldn't be a hominid because of the placement of the teeth, space between the nose and top of the mouth and the small cranial dome. Not sure what this is, but it trips me out.

hey, girl, good to see you. i read a little blip earlier that Idaho had voted down the patriot act? have you heard about that?
hmmmm..i don't know. what's your hypothesis?
Nah.......been trying to stay away from politics and idiots like the one that started this thread. See.......only two posts in ages and 50% of them are thinking very poorly of certain types of posters, i.e., those with their heads up their anal orifices. At this rate, I'll have to take a permanent leave of absence to overcome the negative feelings these brain-dead, hypocritical pathetic slices of humanity bring out.
Please robin, don't confuse Dak with such minor matters. Go Dak Go!!! LOL!!!
Fine, show me the part that forbids the commander-in-chief from taking military action.
My g_wd you're online posting tonight? Why aren't you knitting your fearless leader an Israeli flag or something..
i know the feeling. i got one just
like him, probably worse, emailing me. he thinks we need to "kill all the GD
ragheads." at least willie hasn't said that (yet).
lol
The tribal ragheads have been killing each other since the dawn of recorded history. If Dubya thinks he can help some of them establish a more civilized method of resolving their differences, I'm willing to skepticly go along with it.
You did read this article written by YOUR right Reverand Patrick J. Buchanan, did you Willie?? Go, Pat, Go!! ...isn't that what YOU say Dear Willie? March 24, 2003 issue Copyright © 2003 The American Conservative Whose War? A neoconservative clique seeks to ensnare our country in a series of wars that are not in America’s interest. by Patrick J. Buchanan http://www.amconmag.com/03_2 4_03/cover.html Go, Pat, Go!! This article reads like something Cindy Sheehan would have written (or, at least, agree with 100%). Right Willie?? BTW and if given the chance, would you like to run over Cindy Sheehan with an IDF Catapiller bulldozer??
Dr. Condoleezza Rice said that the “security of Israel is the key to security of the world.”
Do you honestly think that's what we mobilized an army for? To play referee? In the history of warfare, armies have only been mobilized for a handful of reasons. Defense of country (N/A here), promotion of creed/religion/empire, acquisition of wealth/resources/land. There are no other reasons for war. There are only pretenses.

You obviously don't know how the Constitution works. That explains a bit of your hate American / hate Americans / hate freedom position. The President, the Congress and the rest of the Federal Government have enumerated powers. If it's not in the Constitution, they are not supposed to be doing it. The way I read the Constitution, and the way most others read it is that the war powers only provide for the Common defense. Study the country you live in sometime. It's not as bad as you think it is. There is no need to for the hate you bear against this country or the freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution. In addition, have some respect for the country you live in. Not everyone here is a slimey loud mouthed coward sitting behind a keyboard - like you. Some have actually fought and died for the freedoms you hate - but still employ and enjoy. Some have the guts to go out and stand up for what they believe in. Even if it means taking cheap shots from gutless cowards like you. Now go go back to your beer and keyboard. Tell us what a big, bad warrior you are. Once more ask Christine what SHE knows about fighting and then tell us how you slithered out of Viet Nam on your cowardly belly. Tell us how you slithered out of Gulf War I on your cowardly belly. Then tell us why you won't sign up for the current war you so ardently support - you are eligible to go you know. Your bullshit last night about being too old is simply not true.
Perhaps killing another 100,000 more or so Iraqis should teach them the very valuable lesson of civilly resolving thier differences. Capital idea.
Dr. Condoleezza Rice said that the “security of Israel is the key to security of the world.”
Why is it any of our business to begin with? This isn't a defensive war. It has been definitively shown that Iraq posed no threat. Given that Iraq poses no threat, why are we there resolving differences for the Iraqis?
No. PJB has an accurate assessment of the neocon influence on the Administration's policies.
Well ... at least you're coming back to reality. Last night you were claiming that her son was killed by the evil foreigners who masquerade as Iraqi insurgents. I suppose the implication was that the loving Iraqis - who toss sweets and flowers - would never kill an American solder.
A neoconservative clique seeks to ensnare our country in a series of wars that are not in America’s interest. PJB No neoconservative clique ensnaring our country in a series of wars that are not in America’s interest = no Iraqi "insurgents" = Sheehan's son still alive. Get it??
Dr. Condoleezza Rice said that the “security of Israel is the key to security of the world.”
"Neocon influence" and "Dubya" A distinction witout a difference. And, yes, they are both why the Sheehan boy is now dead.
Dr. Condoleezza Rice said that the “security of Israel is the key to security of the world.”
Perhaps killing another 100,000 more or so Iraqis should teach them the very valuable lesson of civilly resolving thier differences. How about that, Willie? Good idea?

How about that, Willie? Good idea? He coundn't care less if they all die, as long as it doesn't interrupt his football game.
God is always good!
Go Dak Go!!! Expect "futility of voting third party" sermon any time now, tom. That was a rant? You have a bad tendency to stretch the truth, but you are not clever enough to co-opt anyone into your agenda. You remind me of a TV evangelist, hoping the masses will be fooled by your constant invoking of fears you yourself try to implant in people.
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 am quite sure inciteing these peoples are what it's all about. Experts at it. Sure you can get a Doctorate in it at the "Universities of the Americas".
As far as I'm concerned, it's because, with the endorsement of both our Congress and the UN, Papa Bush made a military committment to liberate Kuwait. And because in the aftermath, Saddam Hussein repeatedly violated the restrictions that were imposed on him. Now don't get into a sidetrack rant about WMDs. There is no doubt that this is a World Government clusterfuck.
It worked with the Japanese.
If Dubya thinks he can help some of them establish a more civilized method of resolving their differences, I'm willing to skepticly go along with it. Willie Green posted on 2005-08-13 21:33:42 ET Reply Trace Private Reply Mankind has been killing each other well before the dawn of history, Willie Green. The "Ragheads" you racially slander, and this does establish Willie Green as a Racist, have no more or less been killing different tribes than say the Vikings, Scots or Romans. The governmental tribal killers love you Willie Green, because you are such an easy dupe for them, as a matter a fact, they need masses of fools like you as their Oxygen. Been the same for ten thousand years, prolly much more. And you don't know enough to be embaressed.

Why is it any of our business to begin with?
My only concern about those was if they'd be used against our troops.
Their existance is irrelevant to the decision to depose Saddam's regime.
The asshole repeatedly violated the no-fly zone, and as far as I'm concerned, that's sufficient justification to take him out. Hell, Papa Bush never should have left him in power to begin with.
I would have been happier if we sat on the sidelines 15 years ago, and just let the Saudis and Iranians worry about Saddam and the Kuwaitis.
But that ain't what happened and you can't turn back the clock.
The commitment was made, and I support our troops until the committment is fulfilled.
Then we pull OUT of the United Nations.
