I dunno, who gives? She is supporting what she believes and thats fine with me.
Good for her.
I only ask because some of my friends are annoyed by her and I don't really understand what they're talking about.
What the %#$&!!!

Is that Cindy Sheehan? I adore her.
I like Kung-Fu.
she's doing exactly the right thing.
Eh, she's free to say whatever she likes, but I think she's misguided entirely. If nothing else because, whether or not one supports the War itself, there's no way to argue we should pull out now with the job half-done. That would be, by far, the largest mistake to make at this point.
is there any reason to believe "the job" will ever get more than half done? what job exactly is half done?
Did some one kkick open a bathroom stall and take her picture? I am sorry but when a news site puts up a picture, they always seem to put the subject in the most... awkward positions lol. I mean it looks like she's giving birth to something.
I applaud her for taking a stance, but I would like to slap her at the same time. I will never get that picture out of my head - and i am sure i will lose sleep over itThanks guys

She bothers me, but I can't tell you why. I'm all for expression, and I agree with her point of view, but for crying out loud her son was in the military. It's not exactly the safest job in the world, and she acts like this was something unbelievable. I just don't get it yet.
Signature by rubah. I think.
I'm with foa here. I oppose the war, and I'm glad she does, but I don't like her or what she is doing. (Granted, I haven't been paying close attention to all of this) She strikes me as really whiny and I don't think that she is helping the anti war cause at all.
Although I am glad people are turning against the war, I still can't excuse them for supporting the war in the beginning. It's a little late to be switching sides now, damnit. Had these people opposed this from the begining, like everyone should have, then we might not be in this mess right now. I hope they remember this before the next war this country gets involved in.
That's pretty much how I feel about this. Her son volunteered to enter the military. Nobody, not even George W. Bush, forced him to.Originally Posted by fire_of_avalon
While I sympathize with her loss, I also think she is desecrating her son's memory by effectively using him as a ventiloquist dummy for her cause.
ARGUMENT FROM GUITAR MASTERY
(1) Eric Clapton is God.
(2) Therefore, God exists.
I think it's good that she's out there in Crawford, TX serving as a constant reminder that there is a real world in America even if W wants to live in his own fantasy land where only the poor have to sacrifice, vacations last months, and Iraq is going swimmingly.
I'm fairly firmly of the belief that at least making an attempt to fix Iraq up into somewhat reasonable shape is better than leaving now and letting the civil war commence.
but:
a) we aren't really getting much accomplished
b) we obviously are trying to set up a permanent military presence
c) this administration hasn't done much of anything else right since the mission was "accomplished"
d) until we can withdraw our military and regroup, we can't truly defend ourselves across the globe
d) this whole debacle is ridiculously expensive
e) the presence of US military only steels the resolve of the insurgents
f) it's going to dissolve into civil war pretty much regardless
g) sometimes you need to know when to cut your losses and admit a mistake
