Cindy Sheehan ought to shut it down. Take a rest. It's turning into the circus we all feared it would be, with the counter-demonstration and Al Sharpton, the soap-opera angle with her Mom's stroke. Joan Baez (bless her heart). I say, with all respect, get a little counseling (Cindy, not Joan). It really will help.
We need to get on to either prevailing in Iraq (and I know it's Hail Mary time) or some semblance of 'peace with honor'. It's time to concentrate on that, if only for the incredible men and women who are fighting over there.
I know this seems blasphemous to some, but there are other ways to do the anti-war thing. If you don't agree, it's time to check your head. We need to get those people home.

wow I can breath again
PS Go Cindy...
Sheehan was great on Maher.
I never saw her speak before without some talking head throwing bullshit Republicon talking points at her.
She seems really sweet and genuine.

Concern Trolls kinda like Care Bears, only they smell like raw sewage and are professional victims.
Awwwwwwww... a concern troll! The cutest, bestest troll of all!
Concern trolls remind me of the kind of friend you had in college who'd "advise" you that the girl you had a crush on was "too pretty for you" and you should "settle for something more realistic" or risk being rejected.
moveon.org has a petition to sign to keep the estate tax.
http://www.moveonpac.org/estatetax/
sign it and share it!
just think how much armor for soldiers in iraq could be funded with the paris hilton tax! and to paraphrase bill maher, "if you have to tax, you might as well tax dead, rich people."
And remember, kids - You don't "support the troops" when you support the LIES that KILL THEM!

Did a time warp from 1971 suddenly open?
I always get on these things exactly when they're over. WHAAAAAHH!!
furthermore, I sometimes think up some seemingly eloquent things... try to put it to the keyboard it always looks sophmoric at best if not downright moronic, so my apologies for that.
along those lines...
Reading lately, an article about DU, monstrous stuff, how badly it guarbles DNA, fish stock evolution overfishing produces the lowest remaing denomitator, you almost have to then actively fish off the worst thats become the norm, so that some semblance of the (former) mean returns, well its all kinda wacked I don't really want to put together what the DU, no I Duh (ID) crowds doing,
well there's the orbital vague version of whats crossing the cranium.. Not entirely sure this is anywhere I should go. just bothering me lately.
concerning long term damage, everybody exposed to the stuff, well you get it, maybe.
very deeply disturbing stuff

My batses, I'm going to bed. After a long day of describing a redtail hawk (four-foot wingspan!) in my alley (!) to everyone I meet and drinking whiskey while a raccoon toddles up to the ground-level birdbath within ten feet of me, well, I'm just about done in. I'm going to go snuggle up with the spouse and a couple of cats. That's all the critters I need.
Night, batses.

Following that conversation, you invariably walked in on the two of them having wild sex involving stiletto heels, whips, and firm vegetables...
Cindy is BEAUTIFUL.
noam, what do you mean, we? we have only the power that we take. we have been allowed almost none, and the right-wing rdical extremists that run the show are doing their level best to take any of our tools of freedom away. Cindy Sheehan has an exit strategy, putting her way ahead of Chimpy. She'll be gone mid-week, on her way to Washington, and she will pick up more as she goes. She needs no counseling, she's taking action and working out her pain and frustration, and feeling like she's doing something positive in Casey's memory. She has been largely responsible for Chimpy's precipitous drop in the polls, because she has people thinking about the real aspects of war, always dangerous for the warmongers. You should get behind her and support her. Or offer some reasonable alternative that has a chance of getting these folks home. Otherwise you're shootin' yer mouth off. And belittling peoples' 1st Amendment obligations.
Even'n all! Looks like that last thread went right on over the cliff. I just returned from our local AAR affiliate's first birthday bash, featuring the luminous Randi Rhodes. Don't listen to her self-deprecations: she is one very attractive and charismatic woman.
I don't know what exactly the station was thinking, but roughly three times as many people showed up as the 400 they had planned for. They held it at a local inn, and basically let in the first 400, then only let people in as others came out. However, after she had given a pep talk inside, Randi came out with a stack of photos and started signing autographs and chatting with everyone outside. She was still meeting and greeting when I left.
Hanging out with that many like-minded people is amazingly liberating. I met one guy who grown up in Poland in the 30's and escaped with his family in 1940! He had several things to say about what it's like to live among true Fascists, most notably that many of the German people under Hitler professed to have no idea that they were living in a fascist regime but simply went along with the program.
I talked with another woman who had driven 60 miles with her husband to be there- she said she used to be a moderate Republican (both sides of their families are pretty hardcore rightwing), but now she is a Democrat but doesn't feel she moved all that much. Her husband had 21 years of service in the Army and had many choice words for the likes of our chickenhawk leaders.
What was so amazing was that these are all people who actually listen to AAR and so know that most of the bullshit in the mass media is worse than useless. I overheard more than one person stating some version of "I feel sorry for her and her family, but can they please shut the fuck up about Natalee Holloway?"

Hey, I couldn't be more on your side. I'm a total lefty. Tucker Carlson is a schmuck, but at least he had the balls to admit he was wrong about the war.
Anyway, if you check the polls, you'll see that she isn't resonating in general with people. It looks like a loser, politically, in the long term and may turn out to be a rope thrown to an administration that is drowning in it's own incompetence.
You have to think with your head rather than your heart sometimes, and I'm just saying this might be one of those times. Having said that, I will support her totally in anything she does. If you're doing that, make sure you make equal effort in supporting the troops. Donate to the right places, do what you can with your time.

Anyway, if you check the polls, you'll see that she isn't resonating in general with people.
I disagree. Only 55% of the country is paying attention, and yet she's at 35/38. Not bad for a private citizen. And given how she's driving the wingnuts into fits, that's proof positive she's doing the right thing.
As Gandhi said, "First they ignore
you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."
The media ignored her at first. Then people laughed at this lone, grieving mother who braved the heat, humidity and t-storms to hold her vigil. Then they began to smear her.
And now more and more people join her every day, while the regime refuses to "yield" to her "demands". Combined with the fact that 60% of Americans think the war is a mistake, she's providing the necessary spark.

Noam Sane |
Fuck off, okay?
You can whine about "concern trolls" all you want but Noam Sane is right. Sheehan doesn't help us, and could actually end up hurting us in the end. Yeah, what she is doing makes a lot of feel good because she is making Bush uncomfortable but that is a really shortsighted and stupid reason to rally to her.
Maybe if it were closer to election time where there was less of a window for her to screw up and say something stupid, then that would be better. But in the end she is going to come across as a flake. A pitiable flake perhaps, but a flake non the less.
Tom Delay then and now
“I cannot support a failed foreign policy. History teaches us that it is often easier to make war than peace. This administration is just learning that lesson right now. The president began this mission with very vague objectives and lots of unanswered questions. A month later, these questions are still unanswered. There are no clarified rules of engagement. There is no timetable. There is no legitimate definition of victory. There is no contingency plan for mission creep. There is no clear funding program. There is no agenda to bolster our overextended military. There is no explanation defining what vital national interests are at stake. There was no strategic plan for war when the president started this thing, and there still is no plan today.”
Today, when explaining why he wouldn't meet with Sheehan
“Mr. DeLay disagrees with those who believe we should give the terrorists the timeline they want and simply cut and run from the war in Iraq,” said DeLay spokeswoman Shannon Flaherty.
We need to get on to either prevailing in Iraq (and I know it's Hail Mary time) or some semblance of 'peace with honor'.

Um, what our not-a-troll-but-an-amazing-simulation friend is missing here is the realization that Cindy Sheehan is not a political operative and her actions are not political theater. She is not making strategic decisions for the long term blah blah blah - she is acting out of the core of her being and people are drawn to her for that reason. Her beingness is the kind of authenticity a party operative could only hope to see. It's not about fucking politics.
Aside from telling us how much you care and complaining that she is 'hurting the cause', what are you doing from the core of your being to improve things?
Yeah, what she is doing makes a lot of feel good because she is making Bush uncomfortable but that is a really shortsighted and stupid reason to rally to her.
No. You're projecting.
The site of a mother who's lost her son doesn't make any of us "feel good".
If it makes you "feel good" you need to examine why.
Sheehan doesn't help us, and could actually end up hurting us in the end.

Addison
The wingnuts have already done their worst regarding Sheehan. If they could have unveiled bigger guns on her they would have and I think it would have failed. The only way for Sheehan to harm our cause is if they somehow link her to communists or terrorists and they've tried that already to no evail. It failed.
They've pulled out the family members that are against here which also backfired because in the minds of some people how could these people really be family or concerned family if they would so easily betray the mother of Casey Sheehan. As far as I am concerned the wingnuts went out of their way to find any relation possible, wether it was an aunt or uncle, or some distant third cousin who probably never met Casey in their lives. All of it to smear her.
I say let them try cause right now the wingnuts are doing everything they can to make sure she's ignored and made into old news because they have nothing to attacker her with. If they should do anything more severe than what they've done already it simply puts her and her story back into the limelight and they want to avoid that outcome as much as possible.

I've had a few interesting days, trying and I think being sucessfull getting my son situated in school. He did something odd at the last moment, right after he had the orientation talk about the writers program, he came out and said to me, that he wanted to change majors, to Physics.
I'm not that worried except that I want to do whatever I can to make sure he doesn't wash out of it. He's got the brain horsepower, to do this but I'm not sure he's got the motivation to pull this off. At U of M the Physics majors help run the research projects so, he's got to become competent at Physics, Astronomy (the real subject love of the department chair. his name is Dr. Friend) programing maths, and still fill the other subject obligations for the major, which really there is almost a dual one. Only a few credits is necessary to get a Physics/astronomy major from that dept.

I disagree. Regardless of whether people personally approve of her, by forcing the endlessly vacationing Bush into a position where he has to respond to her, the more he ends up revealing to the world what a heartless, venal dickhead he actually is. The message that is being made is that this is a man that puts "getting on with his life" above the troops.

Gramsci's best remembered for his Prison Notebooks (before Mussolini killed him)...
Each day the war goes on the hatred increases in the hearts of the Vietnamese and in the hearts of those of humanitarian instinct. The Americans are forcing even their friends into becoming their enemies. It is curious that the Americans, who calculate so carefully on the possibilities of military victory, do not realize that in the process they are incurring deep psychological and political defeat. The image of America will never again be the image of revolution, freedom, and democracy, but the image of
violence and militarism.

When I consider people like MLK or Gandhi, I am first stunned by their forthrightness and their will to speak and to act. I thingk that I could never be like them.
Then I remind myself that they got where they were by the struggle of thousands upon thousands whom history will never name.
I am glad to be one of those nameless, as are all of you--small acts, talking to those around you, donating time and money--drops in an expanding ocean, that, as MLK said, "speed up the day, all over America and all over the world, when justice will roll down like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream."

Scout: "She's not mine"
I don't feel she is mine, either. That's why I try to refer to her as Mrs Sheehan. This is her gig (as well as any other parents who might join her), and I think it's still in a really fragile stage where guys like Sharpton could really screw it up. I think the Dems know this too and it is why, for now, they are keeping distance.
that they were willing captives of fascism...
i wonder if we'll get that chance?
.
WoodyGuthriesGuitar
Exactly. Where is the discussion of that. We waged aggressive war based on lies...no damn good reason.
The Germans had to face the consequence of that when they lost.
Ever thought of having to face the same?
I many nascent leaders both famous and infamous honed their logic when behind bars...?Darryl...
yeah I believe Hitler did too. Too bad chimpy's daddy kept him out of jail, maybe he would have had an idea.
Here on the left, people are able to speak for themselves. Cindy Sheehan speaks as an anguished mother whose grief over the loss of her son must be unimaginable. She asks a legitimate question that many of us have also asked. WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING IN IRAQ????
I'm sure she doesn't speak for me or anyone else here as we are perfectly capable of speaking for ourselves. This is a concept that is completely alien to the rightards. They all goose step in time to Hail Bush, and parrot the same discredited talking points over and over. They are the epitome of the borg collective.
That being said, Cindy Sheehan has every right to ask for an answer to her question. It's unlikely she will ever get a coherent truthful answer because Bush has never told the truth about the war to begin with.
yeah, fuck the swiss...although I remember it being quite cool there...

What was it that Al Sharpton did wrong?
"Like a rock"
Anyone know what Bob Seger's politics are re; the war and chimpy are?
The problem that Cindy's facing is that Bush doesn't have a long enough driveway.
See, Air Force 1 needs a good, long runway to take off and land. Now, for example, when you're bolting out of Crawford to sign a bill to save one woman's life, even after she expressed her wishes to not be kept alive, artificially, Air Force 1 can head out of the airport, do some flying around and land in D.C at 1am and get Bush where he needs to be.
But try to get that sucker to land at the end of the driveway and, well, Maverick and the Iceman together couldn't do it.
It's just plain physics, folks.
Well, part of my concern is the smearability/dismissibility aspect of the crowd, but the other part is just the pure imagery of it. A crowd is never as poignant as a solitary figure.

My concern is that the opportunists like Sharpton show up in droves and drive the story away from Cindy and onto the preferred slime machine meme -- the hateful antiwar loony left.

Sharpton gets a ridiculous pass from the media.
He's a corrupt figure who takes money from the Republicans, and, unlike Cindy Sheehan, he *is* a borderline anti-semite (look up the Freddie's Fashion Mart Protests).
If he ever became a serious candidate, the media would sink him in 2 days.

We need to get on to either prevailing in Iraq (and I know it's Hail Mary time) or some semblance of 'peace with honor'.
With regards to making a football analogy, imagine a game where our side is currently down by 73-0, and the quarterback we are pinning our comeback hopes on is Ryan Leaf. The almost inevitable final outcome of Bush's folly is going to be a fundamentalist Islamic state sympathic to Iran and likely a lot more dead Iraqis in the process. There will NEVER be any honor in that.
Sharpton takes money from the Republicans? I thought that was the Greens?
Doug--Haloscan devoured my last post, so let me repost it.
There are very few 'pure' math majors. Most apply their expertise in other areas in which they have been trained (in my case, biology).
My experience with physics departments has been that the professors and grad students are very friendly and accessible.

Mrs. Sheehan doesn't need him butting in on her vigil.

Yeah I remember that-geesh!
Re the "opportunists": If Ms. Sheehan is made of what we hope she is, the opportunists will come and go, while she sticks it out.
Making it all the more clear that she does in fact mean it.
So I'm not worried about them. Either she's the real deal or she isn't, and the people floating in and out will prove themselves worthy allies or they won't. Based on how they stack up to the standard that she's setting.
Comparisons to Marvin the Martian and Duck Dodgers in the 24th and a 1/2 Century are not appreciated.

Cindy has a plan, and she has full control of the situation. Sharpton, Baez, Earle, etc. are there to serve the cause. Sharpton will pontificate, and he will bring baggage, but it's his 1st amendment as well. Stormfront will show up, and they'll be assholes, and only the already braindead, converted to fascism, rightwing fools will yell about it; we all know who thay are, as will Middle Americans who will see their disgusting attitudes on the tube. Sunlight is the best disinfectant, and the more freaks that show up o Cindy's shoulder, the more Americans will wonder "why all the commotion?"

Seeing Gary Hart's name mentioned lately led me to digging out Richard Ben Cramer's "What It Takes", his group bio of the guys running for President in 1988 and sort of a play-by-play of how the primaries went.
Gary Hart- now there was a guy who got *no* pass from the media, & he would have been ten times the President W Bush & Sharpton combined. The relentless childishness of our media has been going so long I don't know how the country can stand it.

Doug, if you are still around. Your son's choice of a major should not be binding in the freshman year, though I may be wrong. Still, I haven't heard of any college where you have to commit until the second year at the earliest.
If this is the case at your son's college, he could keep his options open by taking some courses in English, too. That way if he decides he doesn't want to do the physics major he wouldn't have too much trouble to switch.
There should also be an advisor from the faculty to talk to. Or at least most colleges have one, and he should take advantage of any advisors there are. Good luck.

Criticizing Israel does NOT make one anti-Semitic.
The Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C., the current home of hundreds of wounded veterans from the war in Iraq, has been the target of weekly anti-war demonstrations since March. The protesters hold signs that read "Maimed for Lies" and "Enlist here and die for Halliburton."
The soldiers recuperating at Walter Reed asked that the protestors be sent away. They don't want them there.
Does that mean I have the carrot cake...of DOOM?
Actually, I believe you have "Maxx's Studendously Delicious Psychotic Alien Carrot Cake of Doom"

Those of you worrying about the "anti-war loony left" BS that they'll throw at us over and over again must accept the fact that we are IN THE MAJORITY! They no longer have the weight of public opinion behind them. Whenever that sort of thing comes across now, over 60% of the regular American people know thay are being bullshitted. They are left with their radical, extremist base, and that is the enemy now. Cindy Sheehan has cut the legs out from under George Bush, and as he falls over, he must reach ut to grab people to take down with him. Isn't the troll bitchiness and whining clear indication of their fear and desperation? Pound away, in your own ways. Personally, I go into a laughing jag whenever anybody mentions chimpy's success at fighting terrorism. It really can get people questioning themselves if someone is bent over double laughing at them as if they were really making a joke when they thought they were being serious.
I have a problem with the professional opportunists showing up and taking the spotlight off Mrs Sheehan and onto themselves.

Well I think that the major Jewish organizations should denounce the right's smearing of Cindy Sheehan as an "anti-semite" but they don't. I also think that the ADL was despicable for jumping on Dick Durbin.
Jews as individuals have political opinions as varied as anyone else but the major Jewish organizations are one issue, pro Israel lobbying groups now. And they're pushing their members and consituency into a defacto position of support for George Bush. They're more harmful in their own way than the Catholic Church (which is horrible on abortion but at least somewhat neutral on the war and the death penalty).

t is a statistical fact that the biggest dicks are found in Africa and the smallest dicks are found in Asia.
And who has done the measuring? Give reference to journal, volume and number here.
It is also a fact that African Iq's are the lowest and Asian IQ's the highest. Is there a statistical correlation between intelligence and penis size?
The Intelligence Quotient is not the same as intelligence. For one thing, the IQ scores change over time, can be affected by teaching and rise with self-esteem. They can also be manipulated by how the test organizers act towards the test takers. The IQ doesn't even try to measure memory, creativity or many other types of talents, such as social intelligence.
Finally, the IQ scores have been rising over the last fifty years or so, and it is unlikely that people have gotten smarter. All this means that whatever the IQ scores measure they don't measure the nebulous concept of "intelligence". And even if they did as we have no reliable penis size studies, we couldn't draw any correlation inferences.
Sharpton, unfortunately plays THE GAME, which i think will greatly cheapen her (otherwise) valid position. he'll frame it in the language that they'll (wingnuts) know how to effectively attack her through.

I have a problem with the professional opportunists showing up and taking the spotlight off Mrs Sheehan and onto themselves.
I wouldn't worry. Ms. Sheehan can more than hold her own no matter what or whom. It's her own force of will that's carried her this far and will continue to do so. The only thing nervous handwringing does is encourage the brownshirts (which isn't such a bad thing because she's been more than able to pulverize them at every turn).
I also have no doubt that Ms. Sheehan will give such a tongue-lashing to anyone who comes looking for a photo-op with the "flava of the month," and frankly look forward to such public humilations...

I saw Sheehan on Real Time tonight, and I have to say, I was underwhelmed. Which is the problem with expecting a private citizen to morph into the leader of a movement overnight. As much as I respect her for forcefully making the point that she's not ok with losing her son to lies, and speaking out and standing her ground, I thought she lost focus several times during the interview and kind of wandered, missing important points and making others that don't advance her main point and might turn off people who would otherwise be sympathetic to her point of view.
Which is only to say, if she's going to be doing interviews and such 24/7, she needs to work this stuff out before she's in the middle of an interview. That is, if she's going to be leading the end the war movement.
Like I said, that's the problem with taking a regular person and turning them overnight into a movement leader. In some ways, I think she might be more effective if she wasn't granting interviews. Kind of that whole "alone in her grief" image, which incidentally, would also make it harder to tag her as a radical political activist.

All they have to say is something like "while we may disagree with some of the things Cindy Sheehan has said over the past few months, we support her right to oppose the war and resent frivelous accusations of anti-semitism being used by its supporters to stifle debate".
flory, I'm sorry, but I think I get your point perfectly. We shoud be like our opponents, in lockstep, and well-behaved and on-message, and our black sheep (black or not) should stay out of the limelight. It's the surest way to lose I know, just because it hasn't worked now for 3 elections. Al Sharpton speaks to a lot of people who don't identify with Cindy Sheehan, and, while he will assuredly grandstand, he will also bring the light onto the cause, and his followers and fans will add to our strength. Without question, the right-wing noise machine will go into overdrive, and, again I say, so what? What more harm can they do? they have already lost every single debating point to over 60% of the American people. If they keep on spewing their racist drivel, they'll ony lose more of the public. There is quite literally nothing short of a miracle that can reverse the administration's downward plunge. I say we keep throwing them anchors.

Fuck 'em all? That's no way for a senior citizen to be talking.
Rob from AMERICAblog nails it:
I just watched Cindy Sheehan on Bill Mayer. When Maher asked her jokingly that if she didn't get satisfaction from George Bush, would she go over his head to Cheney or Rumsfeld, she replied:
"You know what Bill, I have gone over his head, I've gone to the American people. And we employ him, he's our employee."
She has found her voice, and I gotta say, she's got a great voice. She's quick, she's smart, and I think that she's going to be a great face for the American people's growing frustration with the war.
Norah O'Donnell is a miserable hack who called the denizens at Camp Casey "antiwar extremists". Someone ought to tell O'Donnell, then, that well over half of Americans are antiwar extremists, according to latest polls
I know that it must be tough for Norah O'Donnell filling in for Chris Matthews on MSNBC's Hardball. What, with makeup, the hair stylist and all, I'm sure she doesn't have the time to actually look up any facts before the pretty camera light goes on.

She's been sitting in the TX heat for almost 3 weeks, her mother just had a stroke. I think she deserves some slack.
That said, she's Not leading the end of the war movement. She's one grieving, angry mother. The fact that other people agree with her opinions of the war doesn't create an impetus for her to be a compelling speaker or untouchable public figure.
That said, I agree with your last paragraph but, other than granting interviews, how else Does she get her message out? Fewer interviews might be a good idea, I suppose, to avoid saturation and invite criticism.
I don't know what I'd do if I were in her position. I haven't done enough from my position, I'm ashamed to admit.
Voila! Ici on peut voir l'Io et l'Europa. Je pense que le gravatar de 4lg, c'est l'Io.

He still has to take quite a few elective courses, and is planning on many of them being English or writing courses.

Truer words were never spoken.
even though there is a HUGE number of latino/hispano/chicano men who routinely have sex with other men, being 'gay' is very much a taboo in the ultra-conservative chicano culture...

If anyone knows about being a pickleboy, it's Woody.
So anyways, Kos is like 0 for 500 on political predictions (not one Kos-backed campaign has one, not one, and he has the political sense of a slinky). He was also very wrong on Ellsworth.
Sharpton in Crawford
i haven't followed the SCM coverage of Camp Casey, but from what i have seen, the crowds there have been pretty white...not as diversified as the casualty lists...
just sayin'
in NM it wasn't abortion which bugged the hispano/latino/chicano voters, it was gay rights...
Abortion and gay rights. And they campaigned for Bush.
This is why both the Catholic Church and the major Jewish groups hurt more than they help.
The Catholic Church is a one issue, social conservative organization dedicated to making abortion illegal and persecuting gays. They'll bend on everything else but they'll live or die on this.
The major Jewish groups are a one issue, pro Israel lobbying group. They'll bend on everything else but live or die on this.
Note. I have nothing against Catholics or Jews as individuals, but they both really have to drive stakes through the hearts of the people who "lead" them.

And the only one with an agenda is you Gordon - Go sign up! Enlist you cowardly piece of shit. Encourage the people you call friends to do the same. Com'on, it's a noble cause isn't it?

As best I recall the Maher interview, he refered to Sheehan as the leader of the peace movement & she responded that she was the spark, but would be unable to stop it if she tried.
No ego on parade there
Gary Ruppert... not as manly a name as Jeff Gannon but probably equally at home in the dark halls of 'come and get your love - MC/VISA/AMEX accepted', I'm sure.
Gary, can you get Jeff's autograph for me?
ronjazz - on Maher's show.
And no, I'm not a concern troll.
But my cringe factor went way up when Maher said now the right was accusing her of giving comfort to our enemies, and her response was, "if they're supporting me, then why is my checkbook $1200 overdrawn?"
Which sounded suspiciously like a) a very ineffective response and b) a not very subtle plea for money.
If it sounded that way to me, I know some other people watching it had the same reaction.
I completely support her vigil, her right to be heard, etc etc etc. That doesn't mean that I'm unable to watch and listen to her and determine that she's saying some things that don't help her cause.
Gary Ruppert, you're going to burn in hell.
Hopefully in mid-flight.

There.. I translated your anti-American post for you!
I think it's too late for this country to get out of Iraq without being thoroughly humiliated. Lots of bad signs, esp the open disagreement at the top about whether to stay or go.
I thought the way the President simplifies the argument to "stay" or "go" was a stall, to keep up the tough talk til they can get together on a plan. But I'm starting to think that's the way he really sees it, and no one can change his mind-- it's like Hitler at Stalingrad. Bush is just too stupid, stubborn and arrogant to let anyone do anything that may prevent the disaster from becoming total.
We're never going to get enough troops on the ground. We're not going to withdraw. Our guys will be stretched ever thinner trying to hold in a growing number of insurgents. And no one can tell the President he's wrong. Something's gotta give.
It's my belief that god showed up and the universe was already here.
He said, WTF? shrugged his shoulders and moved in.
Just another opportunist.
Finally! I found THE outfit to wear to Eschacon... but I have a question.
He was also very wrong on Ellsworth.
Gary Ruppert
is that so? I guess it's up to his detractors to keep score - he sure is right on the mark about what disgusting pukes repugs are. And he called them on being theiving murderers. He got that right too.
With or without a crystal ball kos rocks - his blog has the largest on-line community going and that rocks too. And you Gary? Just an asshat who hangs out where people think he's a cockroach.
Hey! How the hell did Gordo rate one of those trolls dolls. Hmmm ... maybe I can steal it from him and finally get a date.
They'll be more'n happy to push the meme that Mrs Sheehan is a tool of the loony left.
She doesn't give a shit. That's her power.
dave™©®
Her power is that she reflects a great uneasiness within middle america with the war and Chimpy's prosecution thereof.
Her pain resonates because they can identify with her. Anything that can damage that identification, damages her campaign.
Becoming identified with opportunists like Sharpton would damage her.
ANd the media have great control over whether that identification sticks or not.
flory, I don't think that's a danger any more, that Sharpton will turn out more repig voters. But even if it is, how to stop it? Again, I think the self-flagellation is unnecessary. As gordo and the other idiots point out, correctly, we already have the losing thing down. Granted, it's hard when the machinery is rigged and the fix is in, but we can't keep replaying the losing plans. Nixon and Nam are still very much in play here, and that's the mistake the right is making. People aren't buying it like they did then, and we need to be proud of our freedoms, not ashamed like the republicans are. Proud to have people on our side that we disagree with and don't even like. We have lost precisely because we're not progressive enough, not left-wing enough, not passionate enough. They have won by being radical extremists. If it works for fear-mongers and warmakers, racists and bigots, rich oilmen full of disdain for you and me, it most certainly should work for GOOD humans. That's us. We're the peole that have changed the world for the better, time and time again. From the founding of this country, to civil rights, to labor rights, to environmental protections for the future, it's always been us. They live in a past that never existed; we work for a future that's better than the past. They are afraid, we are curious. They kill, we nurture. We can't do it politely, because they will never understand that.
oh, hell.
So did the Harris poll have the same problem? And The American Research Group? Harris also shows a 40% approval rate, and The American Research Group a 36% one.

The United States gov't having private soldiers, unaccountable to Congress, do its work in Iraq strikes me as un-American.

Chris Hedges calls this the "Linda Blair Effect".
We used to call it the "Linda Blair effect" in Bosnia. You think you've suddenly found the one, normal person that you can have a rational conversation with, and then after 15 minutes their head starts to spin around. It's just amazing how almost everyone becomes infected with the rhetoric of wartime, and they just parrot back the clichŽs they're handed. Whatever disquiet they feel, it's as if they can't express it. They're robbed of language.
Don't be so sure about Ellsworth. I'm here in South Dakota, and the news is good for now. However, I've got a $5 bet with someone at work that Bush will put the base back on the list.
Starting Sept. 23, he has, I think, at least two chances to do this.
Now that Daschle is gone, South Dakota no longer matters--certainly not as much as Texas.

Or you can say:
Here's a little story,
A story should be told.
About an M1 Tanker
His name was Tanker Joe.
His home was in Kentucky.
The Land that God Forgot
The mud was 18 inches thick
The sun was blazin' hot.
Or you can say:
Submitted by Cadet Pvt. Robert Lechner
Deep in the battlefield, covered in blood,
lies and Airborne Ranger, dying in the mud.
He fought for his country, and died like a man.
Tho' some people back home just wouldn't understand.
(chorus)
Back at home a young wife waits,
unaware that her Ranger has finally met his fate.
Her little boy's cryin' as she tucks him into bed,
Although no one's told him, he knows his daddys dead.
{Chorus}
The boy grew up with a certain kind of shame,
His father was buried in a tomb with no name.
He finally got his chance when the country went to war,
he went to enlist just to even up the score.
{Chorus}
After seven months training he finally saw the day,
out of 93 men, he got his green beret.
As he stood there looking at the big cheering crowd,
He knows deep inside he'll make his daddy proud.
{Chorus}
SWR: the tragedy is, apparently, they are able to vote in significant numbers...

Gary Ruppert
Vice President Cheney is that you?
I think it's too late for this country to get out of Iraq without being thoroughly humiliated.
Sorry, but this country has already been thoroughly humiliated. Lying about nonexistent WMD to start a vanity war to give Georgie "political capital" have reduced our credibility to nil. Bush's use of torture at Abu Ghraib and Gitmo have completely eroded whatever moral authority the US had. Two and a half years on, the insurgency is as strong as it ever was and the Iraqi forces we're currently training are likely only going to end up being foot soldiers in a civil war. The only thing that might stop the downward spiral is a few hundred thousand more American troops, and that won't happen unless there is a draft (it has become painfully obvious that the vast number of war-loving pussies out there are never going to enlist willingly).
Gary represents a new species of troll: The Rip Van Winkle Troll, who mindlessly recycles talking points that Bush himself has admitted are not true months or years ago.
Let me guess, you were Home Schooled, right Gary?
You can always have a bacon sammich. Got any eggs?
I have eggs, but no english muffins.
I have bacon, but no tomatoes.
Maxx made me some toast though.
You can't prove there were no WMDs. For one thing, they could be in Syria
You see here's how Gary's logic goes.
He thinks that a blog (the Daily Kos) has the ability to destroy the Democratic Party.
In other words, he has a tremendously inflated sense of what a website can do.
But that applies to the war as well. He LITERALLY believes that by sitting up here at 2 in the morning and posting nonsense, he's doing as much for the war effort as someone in Fallujah getting shot at.
He literally believes this. That's why he'll go on with this shit all night.
Now you can do one of a few things. You can try to "debate" him but that's futile since he's just a mindless geyser of talking points. You can make fun of him the way you make fun of Gordon but he probably won't respond because he's consciously "trolling" (posting repetative shit) or you can ignore him (which won't do much good either since he'll just keep spamming).
So what's the solution? There isn't one. It's a blog/discussion board and if someone is determined and obsessive enough to spam it, he can do it.
Which reminds me, I have to clear those enlarge your penis ads out of my inbox. As a white man, I need them but a bigger penis would mean a lower IQ.
I just don't want the slime machine to have an opportunity to tear her down.
I don't think she cares.
That's what make her scary to them.
We don't know. The 9/11 terrorists used fake IDs.
Wrong on so many levels. Show us the fake IDs. Surely, they survived the plane crashes, right?
The terrorists were identified. How many were from Iraq, Brain Warrior?
Stop talking, start listening, learn something about America and get back to us.
You're a fucking disgrace to this country. You dishonor every soldier who's given his Life for America, shit-hound.
garry, i'm not one who encourages people like you to enlist, but in your case maybe it would be a good idea. you seem really frustrated. maybe you should go talk to a recruiter if you feel so strongly about it. i hear they've lowered their standards a lot lately, so even if they've rejected you before they might take you now.
Damn now they are calling me insane. Everyone comes to that conclusion, but I know better. If I just had that Troll Doll that Gordo owns, a little make up and a nice little purchase at Victoria's secret and I will show them. I am pretty sure the Troll Doll will understand and then I don't need anyone's respect.
flory, Business Manager - Well, Ok, I guess I could go with the Lime Green!
oldwhitelady
Thats good.
Lime green is the new black.
You can't prove there were no WMDs. For one thing, they could be in Syria
Gary Ruppert
Cheney it is you.
I can't wait until you run in 2008.
You can't prove there were no WMDs.
Well, you guys spent MILLIONS and millions of dollars trying to prove that there were.
And you got nada.
Run along now fat boy.
I can't wait to see Dick Cheney run too, he would win easily.
Maxx made me some toast though.
four legs good
Toast, bacon, eggs.
Call it a bacon and egg sammich and have breakfast.
Ruppert--sanctions were working. Iraq had less in the way of capabilities than they did before Gulf I. BTW, in case you've forgotten, Saddam bought his weapons from us.
Sorry, but this country has already been thoroughly humiliated. Lying about nonexistent WMD to start a vanity war to give Georgie "political capital" have reduced our credibility to nil.
The Chinese were plenty happy to buy our bonds, though. I shudder to think what will happen when El Guapo tells them to 'fuck off, we're America!'.
Great job, values voters. Rhinestone Cowboy's Harvard MBA is paying off in fish and loaves.
Sarah Deere - well, if she's not planning on leading a movement, she shouldn't be saying she is on TV.
Jennifer
Jennifer, fuck, I dunno.
I'm getting old and tired of all this crap.
She lost her son. If my son died bvefore me, I would be devastated. Devastated.
She know Bush et al lied. She knows this.
She;s not perfect. She's a p rivate citizen who has gone through the worst event a parent can endure (or not). Her mother has had a stroke. Her husband has filed for divorce. His repug family has spoken out against her.
She is assaulted by media, 24/7, because she is a "commodity" to them.
Please.
WHo among us could survive/withstand such pressures?
I mean...WTF.
None of us has had to step up to the plate in this way. WE haven't one fucking clue.
Frankly, I think Cindy Sheehan is as real as it gets, and we owe her, Big Time.
I sure as shit am not going to criticize her "performance" because she's not *performing* - know what I mean???
...fudge (only I didn't say "fudge").
olaf: the problem is, when I was young, I lost a few fingers in an unfortunate accident involving some M-80's and a frog.
Those darn things move fast!
Call it a bacon and egg sammich and have breakfast.
NOOOOOOO!!!
That's not what I want.
Will you be humiliated when emboldened Iraqi terrorists kill millions of Americans in America after a "Surrender"?
if this is not a parody, then this is the etiology of the pathology of him and his ilk-
humiliated, Americans in America, "Surrender"
Well, they could be on the fucking MOON, Gary, flown there on the space shuttle Saddam built in secret.
But that's about as unlikely as "they could be in Syria."
Besides, I don't have any good salsa.
Can't have eggs with out salsa.
Don't have any decent cheese either. WOE IS ME!!!
spent MILLIONS and millions
...um, er, uh...
BILLions and BILLions of BILLIONS of dollars
"Iraq? Incredible weapons, incredible weapons. How do y'all know that? Well, we looked at the receipt. But as soon as that check clears, we're goin' in! What time's the bank open? Eight? We're goin' in at nine for God and country and he's a Hitler and hey, look, a fetus! Whatever you need, let's go!"
-- Bill Hicks on the First Gulf War
4Legs--I'd love to make you something to eat. We have the carrot cake, and I've got bacon, eggs, onions, peppers and cheese. Serve with some fried potatoes, and you've got breakfast.
That's not what I want.
four legs good
For someone complaining of terminal hunger -- you shore are picky!!
Last suggestion -- get the alien carrot of doom from Maxx!!
fucking MOON
...remember the "lost cargo-container ships of death"...? Oh, that was a good one!
