'war hawk' Hillary

Cindy Sheehan

Cindy Sheehan, the so-called "peace mom" on a crusade to end U.S. involvement in the Iraq war, is publicly blasting Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., for her continued support of the ongoing conflict.

"I think she is a political animal who believes she has to be a war hawk to keep up with the big boys," Sheehan writes in an open letter posted on anti-Bush filmmaker Michael Moore's website. "I would love to support Hillary for president if she would come out against the travesty in Iraq. But I don't think she can speak out against the occupation, because she supports it. I will not make the mistake of supporting another pro-war Democrat for president again: As I won't support a pro-war Republican."

"I believe that the intelligent thing for Democrats to do for 2006 and 2008 would be to come out strongly and correctly against the botched, bungled, illegal, and immoral occupation of Iraq," Sheehan added.

The California woman, whose son Casey was killed fighting insurgents in Iraq, launched an anti-war movement when she camped outside President Bush's Crawford, Texas, ranch in August and demanded to meet with the commander in chief, drawing national media attention.

She was granted a meeting with Sen. Clinton to discuss the war effort, but says the Democrat "apparently" didn't listen, as the senator told a reporter for the Village Voice, "My bottom line is that I don't want their sons to die in vain. ... I don't believe it's smart to set a date for withdrawal. ... I don't think it's the right time to withdraw."

"That sounds like Rush Limbaugh to me," Sheehan said. "That doesn't sound like an opposition party leader speaking to me. What Sen. Clinton said after our meeting sounds exactly like the Republican Party talking points I heard from Senators Dole and McCain."


Rush Limbaugh

"There's trouble in paradise out there on the far left extreme which has become the Democrat base," Limbaugh responded today on his national radio program.

"You don't do this, folks. You don't publicly as a Democrat disavow a Clinton and live to do it again. Well, you just don't do it again and again without something happening. So she's one gutsy lady or stupid, one of the two. But something's going to happen to this woman. Something's going to silence her."

On a political messageboard online, one writer notes, "Who would have thought that Hillary's candidacy could be in trouble because she's not far enough to the left?"

Ummm, Cindy Sheehan is right.

Yes, she is about the resp. thing. However, I do not think we can immediately withdraw all troops from Iraq as we have to help that country get on its feet again after we immorally destroyed it. This is a sep. argument from they should not have been there in the first place and the troops should all have been home by now had W has any coherent plan to win the peace

but they WANT us out? I think they think they can do a better job if left to their own devices anyway.....if you think we should help them rebuild, then maybe we should just give them $$$$ and go away. (btw: that should be a ONE TIME payment, not a "forever guilt" type payment)

Well, we already gave them several billion dollars.

Also, I think the physical rebuilding is mostly done - or at least as much as we can. I am talking about training their new army and establishing their government - those should have been completed by now. That they are not is another example of the Bush Admin.'s incompetency and ignorance in thinking that they could change people overnight without a concrete plan in place.

Again, I think we need to leave as soon as possible but leaving these people to their own devices right now would be inhumane as we put them there.

A bunch of the money spent on rebuilding is unaccounted for it, lots of it was just squandered away. We should just get out of there. Interesting that she is called a "loon" while liberals are supposedly the name callers.

I mean I think it is safe to call someone something when it is true, and she really is a "loon", she has proven that I think. Even most Democrats have begun to distance themselves from her. I remember when she first came on the scene, Democrats were so excited they had a new "anti-war mom"...but rather quickly they found out that the lady is quite the media hog radical.

Ann has proven herself a "loon" too. Your opinion is not a fact, it is opinion.

Whatever you want to call it. Someone should suggest to her the benefits of psychiatric examinations! I promise you they wouldn't find Cindy to be a lucid individual.

and *A* could benefit from some microdermabrasion and some makeup not manufactured by Krayola; can you make that suggestion? or at the very least, send her to the Estee Lauder counter for a complimentary make-over.

like Suze said, that's just my opinion, not fact

Why he is not in jail for possession with intent to disctribute is a horrible mark on the judicial system. Does anyone think that if this had been some black teenager with all those thousands of pills they would not be under the jail by now addiction or not
