Right Wing Smear Campaign Against Sheehan Has Begun

It always starts with Drudge. I won't link his site, but there's a front page disinformation campaign brewing against her already.

7. I agree.

I don't think it will work. A grieving mother meets with the Resident and she says it went well because she is still in shock over her child's death. She says it went well, because she WANTED it to go well. She WANTED that POS to acknowledge her child and the sacrifice he made. She didn't want to even consider the possibility that her beautiful son died in vain.

Then out comes the Downing Street Memo. She discovers it is all LIES. Treasonous, traitorous lies. She realizes her child died for a lie. And she takes a stand.

God Bless Cindy Sheehan.

11. Yes. I think she was taken in by the moment and the need to believe.

Looking back on it she nows sees it for what it really was. A political con. Her discription today of what really happened is far more in keeping with Bush's true character. The fact is she said what she said then. But that doesn't make what she is saying today untrue.

6. How can they trash a mother who lost her only son in a war that not

even he believed in. He kept his word of honor and went like he had promised his Commander and Chief. However, his Commander and Chief doesn't give a rat's ass.

Her son was there like 5 days before he was murdered?

The guy filling in for Limpballs today started talking about her stating, "She's already seen the president once, but that is not enough, no this lady thinks she and/or her son is more important then any others." I'd like to bitch slap him into tomorrow.

As far as Bush is concerned . . . there's brush to clear.

8. they started before Drudge......

but both morans probably have the exact same talking points.(I haven't read the Drudge Piece) I emailed "Bob" Newman to let him know how I felt about his article, and congratulated him on following his Superiors so well. He actually replied to my Email personally. Wow! This was from a post from last night, check the link and give him a quick email if you can!

12. But don't forget Bush's poll numbers are in the toilet

it won't work. It seems the majority of americans have woken up to the lies the administration told.

I think Cindy's timing is perfect. I wish I could be with her.
