I'm not sorry, and I think Cindy Sheehan is very effective.
In fact I think she scares the living shit out of the
war party which is why they attack her with slimy innuendoes
every chance they get.

1. But, but haven't you heard . . .
She hangs out with known communists seeking to undermine our freedom.

2. She is a force they don't want to reckon with.
They hope she will lose her backing. I dont' see that happening.

4. Go Cindy!!!
It's a tough choice deciding whose anti-war voice to follow - Cindy versus the Democratic party. Wait a second, the Democratic party establishment has been relatively silent about the Iraq debacle. What the hell are they waiting for? I have heard some say, "We can't pull out, there will be chaos in Iraq." If what is happening there now is not chaos, I would hate to imagine what constitutes chaos!


The people are hungry for someone to step up to the plate and speak the truth. That is why Cindy is capturing the imagination of so many people. Too many of our Democratic Party Politicians are more concerned with focus groups and political consultants than truth and patriotism. The time to speak up is now!

14. A true Patriot...They are afraid of her, A Gold Star Mother
Her voice carries weight, and anthing they try to do to her will backfire. They have already tried to Swiftboat her and the shit flew back into their faces. I am all for her...she has become a celebrity, an icon for peace. She helped wake up this nation. Yes she will be in the history books as a patriot.

17. About the "I'm With Cindy" design
If you like the design, cool. I'll even "donate" the bandwidth for those who can't host it on their own servers (if you can please do!) But, all I ask is that you CAST A VOTE for this design at the link below. It will move it to the top of the TSC page, where about 10,000 people a day will see it. THANKS!

VOTE for 1st Amendment Shoppe CINDY design

10. Exactly.
If she didn't scare them, they would ignore her. Like they ignored her when she first arrived in Crawford.

15. First they ignore you.
Then they laugh at you.
Then they fight you.
Then you win.

Was that Gandhi?

16. She terrifies the Right because she could have easily been one of them
Heck, at one time they would have embraced her openly because she had a son in the armed forces.

I find her extraordinary because she has no "handlers" no organized $$ behind her as the Right so often charges.

She is a grieving mother that started a movement. That is what the Right hates most of all.

She has not been marginalized, her movement has just started.

22. Cindy is very impressive and increasingly recognizable
especially with that smile she evidenced when arrested.
The lady who was the antiwar representative on the The News Hour on PBS last night also did a fabulous job - a kind of spiritual strength I haven't seen in too many people in my entire life. She is a Gold Star mother I believe.
There was also a man on NPR two or three days ago who did a great job.

Those who wanted to slander these people are making a big mistake and losing badly.
