Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community - View Single Post - Cindy Sheehan: What do you think of her situation?

host- the only difference or innacuracies I see here is the quote "'That was the gift the president gave us, the gift of happiness, of being together," that was not revealed in its whole context.

Did sheehan not say, "I now know [President Bush] is sincere about wanting freedom for the Iraqis. I know he's sorry and feels some pain for our loss." Was this out of context as well?

and then she is quoted as saying:

"We are not waging a war on terror in this country. We’re waging a war of terror. The biggest terrorist in the world is George W. Bush!"

Sheehan, who is demanding a second meeting with Bush, stated: "We are waging a nuclear war in Iraq right now. That country is contaminated. It will be contaminated for practically eternity now."

"They’re a bunch of fucking hypocrites! And we need to, we just need to rise up..."

"If George Bush believes his rhetoric and his bullshit, that this is a war for freedom and democracy, that he is spreading freedom and democracy, does he think every person he kills makes Iraq more free?"

"The whole world is damaged. Our humanity is damaged. If he thinks that it’s so important for Iraq to have a U.S.-imposed sense of freedom and democracy, then he needs to sign up his two little party-animal girls. They need to go to this war."

"We want our country back and, if we have to impeach everybody from George Bush down to the person who picks up dog shit in Washington, we will impeach all those people."

So list what she actually said, if this is not it.

All I'm trying to say is the lady is looney and obviously distressed and she's disrespecting her son and family with her behaviour. The drudge article I posted was an example of what she thinks and possibly a look at her motives, as I remember another post commenting on what her true motives are.

The whole thing looks like a waste of time and resources to me. She can sit out there and camp and protest all she wants, but one lady's bickering sure does gobble up a lot of media coverage.
