She's back

It was a sweet week, too good to last, of course. It was sweet and serene because the newshounds weren't following Ms. Sheehan all over the place as they did her "ceremonial" chores at her Crawford, TX campsite. One reporter (probably the only honest one so far) mentioned the "made for TV movie" moment where she placed her son's boots near the cross with his name.

PUHLEEZE!

She's also now stated that even if she did get a meeting with President Bush, she won't let the issue die... so much for what she claimed before. She's getting more flip floppy than Mr. Kerry did during the election.

Now she plans to take her dog and pony show to Washington, DC. GOOD! Don't know where she plans to camp out around there, what with all the security restrictions, but good luck to her there. I'm sure the newspeople are relieved, because they can just point their cameras out of air conditioned offices to snap a pic of her, instead of shlepping to a field in Texas. Easier to whore her out for their own social agenda.

Why is this such a big deal? Because the newspeople want it to be. We only hear or see whatever they decide we need to hear or see, and this is what they deem appropriate for us to see and hear. Very little press on the protestors who support the troops, except to infer that they also support the war. NOBODY supports a war you dumb asses! Nobody wants people to go to war and die! But you don't sit over here in your cushy offices and "want" things your way just because that's how you think it should be. Life is unfair, deal with it. Death is even more unfair, so stop manipulating and making women with apparent "issues" into your cause celebre.

Tell the story newspeople. Not the parts that you want people to read and believe, but tell the whole story. Apparently "who, what, when, where, why, and how" became "this is what I want it to be"

So, Miss Sheehan, come on up to Washington, DC. I'll wave to you from the "You don't speak for us, Cindy" crowd with my sign that says that I proudly support our troops.

You go be remembered for the woman that caused our troops to get pulled out and MILLIONS of innocent Iraqi civilians to be slaughtered, much like what happened in Viet Nam after our troops pulled out... oh, sorry, not suppose to do that comparison, am I, only suppose to point out the shameful "loss" of a war?
