If a republican lost a son in the war, "I" wouldn't call her Tragedy Slut
Edited on Thu Aug-25-05 11:52 AM by mopaul
that's the difference between them and me. they call cindy a 'tragedy slut', 'traitor', and every other vile name they can think of, where I would not.

i would disagree if a republican mother lost a son and still supported bush and his war, but i would NOT call her filthy names.

i'm better than that.

4. Excellent point, but I would continue to hold George Bush accountable

5. I wouldn't name call BUT
I've said several times that if someone who voted for Bush lost their job, their veteran benefits, or even a loved on in Iraq, they might get my sympathy, but they would also hear, "You voted for him. You share the blame."

6. That's a huge difference, I agree with you
It's like they can't hear how shrill their voices are, how they're using insults because they don't have facts, and how they're branding her as anti-American when everything about her screams American mom.

7. I think they all are entitled to their own feeilings
if they've lost a child, husband, father, mother, sister, brother, relative. I won't criticize any of them for their stance on the war or otherwise. Their feeilings are theirs.

8. This reflects badly on them, not on Cindy Sheehan....
It reveals their desperation. They have no case to make. They can only lash out in rage as their wet dream of world domination crumbles and turns to dust. They bowed down and worshipped the Golden Calf (George Bush and his corporate sponsors) and now they realize they have a false god.

9. Then to "tragedy pimp" in an effort to not sound quite so bad, but
still adding to the ugly names she's being called.
Vile things they are.

10. a short list of vile names they are throwing at cindy
traitor. liar. flip flopper. radical leftist. socialist. hippie. ungrateful. disrespectful. ugly bitch.

she is weakening america. she is supporting the terrorists. she is harming the troops. she dishonors her own son's sacrifice. she should just shut up. she doesn't speak for me, (she never claimed to speak for everybody)

the ugliness goes on and on.

11. We'll see who wins in the long run. I love it when they are drawn out
to say the vile things they've been coming out with. If you were a white haired fiscal Republican loyalist and your peers were diminishing out of embarassment with being tied to rapture fanataics and blatant bigots... how long would stay around?

Bring it on Rev Robertson and Falwell and Bennett and Sean and Anne and Cindy blasters. Bring it on.
