Sheehan: Where Are the Anti-War Democrats? | Drudge Retort (http://www.drudge.com/news/124391/sheehan-anti-war-democrats - broken link)
I like the comment:
"The dems rode the anti-war movement like a filthy w***e to get them through the dark night of the bush presidency, but when they saw the light of day on the horizon (gaining the majority in 06), they abandoned her for their wife (the status quo) just in time to make it to church (continuation of Bush's policies and policies in the same vein) on Sunday morning."

Yes Democrats used her and they used the anti-war platform, does this surprise you? Once in office they were cast aside like one throws away a used condom.
However, don't kid yourself, because I watched Republicans throw Ron Paul, Christopher Buckley, and a mile long list of traditional and moderate conservatives under the bus just because they wouldn't support McCain.
So do not delude yourself into thinking any political faction has a lock on using people and groups for political purposes such as votes. Its politics of our day and if these people are willing to toss prominent people under a bus, what reason would the average person think they the party they support today gives a damn about them?
I have found respect for Cindy,the media and the {D} party made her a star and though they threw her under the bus she keeps protesting.She has rose above their despicable hypocrisy and was protesting in Martha 's Vineyard when Obama was there.
How can you put the lady down? she stuck to her convictions and does not care if the media or the {D}s showed their true colors= blatant hypocrites.
She is not a loon. She is a mother who lost her son in a war. Get off her case.
She is a loon. She had little to do with her son and used his death as a political bargaining chip. That is vile and disgusting and is a desecration of her son's memory, who was a patriot. She does not speak for her son, as he is dead. Yet stealing his sacrifice for one's own use is sickening. She is as ugly as a bear's ass inside and out and I am glad she has faded away to her liberal land of delusion.

Wow, that's so harsh. Have you lost a son in war? You can't define how any mother should act after her son's death. She has a right to channel her anger and sadness in any way she deems is helpful to her. You have no right to say how anyone should grieve.
Adam Kokesh is running as a conservative Republican for US Congress in NM and entails some of the same philosophies as Sheehan. He's also an Iraq war vet. God bless the man.

Your post is ENTIRELY accurate. No political party has a lock on using people TN. I've tried to preach this time and time again but most on the fringes of either party don't wish to listen.
