Cindy Sheehan has an agenda. Terry Schiavo parents didn't
Just thought about it. Freepers and the Limbaughs of the world are crying that Cindy has 'an agenda'. Whatever that means.

What about Terry Schiavo parents? Sorry - I already forgot their names. They didn't have an agenda? Of course not will tell you all the freepers and Limbaughs of the world. They were grieving parents.

The Congress voted 'save terry' law in the middle of a night. Frist diagnosed her by just seeing her on TV. Bush signed the 'save terry' law. Delay threatened the judges involved in the case. But make no mistake about it - none of these people had an agenda.

The person that has an agenda is Cindy - a grieving mother that lost her son in a war based on fuicking lies. And all she wants is 5 minutes with the fucking liar who started the war and who will be vacationing for 5 weeks. I tell you - this woman has an agenda.

How do they dare smear a grieving mother? I am so fucking mad right now that I can hardly express my feelings.

Sorry for the rant.

6. Cindy's 'Wicked' Plot
according to FR:


To: plain talk

Her words are going to be used by the insurgents and terrorists in mid-east as legitmacy to their cause. She is giving comfort and aid to the enemy. She needs help. I think she is using the death of her son to advance a wicked political cause that most Americans wouldn't think of supporting ever. She has set a trap and is running a bait and switch. Feel sorry for grieving mother then try to upsell you on the leftist agenda.

8. So, most of americans are giving comfort to the terrorists too?
Polls show a majority of americans think going to war was wrong. Are they giving comfort to the terrorists too?

F***ing stupid freepers...

11. This one kills me
Edited on Tue Aug-16-05 02:58 PM by wryter2000
Bush "plans" a war on the cheap.
He sends in too few troops.
The troops don't have armor for themselves or their vehicles. At one point they didn't have food, water, or bullets.
Bremer disbands the Iraqi army -- releasing thousands of angry, unemployed men and letting them take their guns
Our soldiers discover huge caches of weapons but aren't given orders to secure them and end up leaving them lying around.

But peaceful protests are undermining the troops?

To quote Scrooge, "I'll retire to Bedlam."

16. If you think like them
the polls are skewed. :eyes: I think someone told that to Stephanie Miller in an Email. So the polls are only right when it's in their favor?

14. Bait and Switch?
Makes you wonder what they're smoking.

First off, she wants to know why we're in this war and how many more will have to die.

Bush says he feel bad for her, but says he can't pull the troops out. That's his answer, but not the answer to her question. His response was more spin and completely missed the point - that's the bait and switch.

7. The real difference
Cindy's operating on her own out of conscience. The Shindlers were being manipulated by people with a radical agenda.

13. Not just being manipulated by them
They're employed by them! The brother has quit his teacher's job and is now managing their foundation and the entire family is traveling the country in Randall Terry's "tent shows" promoting the pro-life, anti-abortion agenda and getting paychecks from these cretins. Of course, all the Schindlers' attorneys were provided by these people, too.

18. Wow
Seriously? I remember when they had the "funeral" the brother was comparing the incident to 9/11 and saying she deserved a purple heart. WTF?!

21. Welllllll, duh!
Of course she has an agenda! To have Bush explain why he lied us into Iraq. Is that the wingnut talking point these days? Cindy has an "agenda"? That's like a little kid that justifies something with the rationale "because!" Next thing you know, Cindy's going to have a "schedule" or a "policy" or an "idea" or a "cause". Whooopty doo.

Who is gallagher? Is that they guy who smashed watermellons with a big hammer?
