Cindy is too nice
The criminality of the RW is racking up charges and nobody holding them accountable.

First of all, what Larry Northern did was a HATE crime and should be pursued and prosecuted as such.

Second of all, federal mail tampering should involve at the very least all of the postal workers in Crawford losing their jobs and federal prison time at the most.

Until these asshat's feet are held to the fire, this shit won't stop.

On a kinder note..I'm glad Cindy is too nice. I hope her mother is doing well. But this stuff is getting realllly old.

1. No she's not
It is exactly her "niceness" that makes her a media darling.

Mail tampering isn't anything Cindy has a thing to do with. It's not up to her to prosecute that crime.

As for the guy who ran down the crosses, he's still been charged, hasn't he?

No one is getting away with their bad behavior. And Cindy is still Cindy; a charming, quiet, grieving mother.

8. I agree. Her sweetness is what's keeping her on TV...
and on the radio. Her kind demeanor and gentle spirit are just absolutely amazing.

She could rant and fume at her attackers, but then Rush, Falafel Man, Slanthead and the rest of their ilk would just roll their eyes and say, "We told you that liberals are all full of anger. See?"

She's turning all the stereotypes about the "angry liberal" on their heads and showing us what loving Christian behavior is all about. She needs to just keep on doing what she's doing, as it's making the RW hate machine crazy.

2. She's practicing the TRUE teachings of Christ.
With the turn the other cheek policy. She is christian values in action. I hope some are paying attention.

6. She certainly is

4. I have been wondering
if *** refusal to meet with her is because the stategy is to hold on until early September and the 9/11 stuff comes up again, ..maybe he is counting on getting a bounce from the 9/11 anniversary,, thinking that will negate Cindy and the anti-war movement

7. Nice is a side effect of morality
I would also describe her as meek.

13. She shows her humanity and compassion.
Think about the grieving father that pulled up in his semi during the first few days of Camp Casey. He was totally against what Cindy was doing...he just wanted to know if his son's name was on one of the crosses. Cindy and Ann showed their humanity and compassion and before long-he was sharing a beer with her at the Peace House.

Peace.

14. Cindy's nice, but take a closer look.
This is a woman who has been after Bush for probably closer to 1 year. She went through a period of mourning, and then she set her gun sights squarely on HIM. She's made lots of appearances, she demonstrated at the capitol. She's been mobilized for a long time.

And her message has never wavered. She keeps hammering away at the same questions, over and over. She is, in fact, incredibly focused and effective. And of course, they know they can't fight that.

That's why they're giving her all they've got: every weapon in the arsenal. Slander, smearing, attack, run over crosses, use other moms & dads, Rumsfailed's "Freedom March", husband files for divorce, etc etc etc.

She's lovable because she's got a very sweet voice. And that's why the media loves her.

AGAIN, check mate George.

15. how was what larry northern did a hate crime?
it was an act of vandalism committed by an idiot not targeting a race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. he didn't spray swastikas on a synagogue, or burn down a black church.

16. According to the TEXAS Hate Crime Act
Edited on Fri Aug-19-05 12:50 PM by Horse with no Name
any crime that included intimidation and vandalism can be classified as a hate crime.

17. It is getting old
I think it's good Cindy is nice to those who attack her. It shows her character and the type of person she is.

18. I think it is good too
and I am glad she is good.
But one good takedown of one of the assholes would probably make the next one think before he did something.
However, I think she is wiser than I am in understanding that that would derail her message.
