Apparently running out of ideas for obnoxious publicity stunts, Cindy Sheehan will be returning to her roots next month by once again camping out in Crawford while demanding a second meeting with President Bush.
This time it won’t happen on the property of Mark Mattlage, who hosted her circus last year. Mattlage is a Democrat but not a moonbat, and offered his 1-acre property in the past not because he agrees with Sheehan’s appalling views — which reportedly make him cringe — but out of concern for the safety of neo-hippy lowlifes who were congregating in a ditch and spilling out onto the road.
According to the She-hag, her freak show left Mattlage “with a better property and one with amazing positive and peaceful energy.” But that wasn’t enough for the greedy Mattlage, who wanted her to pay for increased liability insurance costs in anticipation of huge crowds, and to sign a “hold harmless” agreement. The Ditch Witch publicly responded with this:
I cannot in good faith accept the terms that you and your lawyers are holding us hostage with. … I fear we will have to find alternatives to using your land…
Mattlage seems able to live with that. He had reservations about letting the moonbat troupe use his land when Bush was on his ranch “out of respect for the President.”
Now Sheehan has acquired her own 5-acre spread in Crawford for stalking President Bush, admittedly paid for with insurance money from the death of her son, who died fighting for the very cause Sheehan strives to undermine.
As if that weren’t disgusting enough, the property was acquired through a third party, one Gerald T. Fonseca of New Orleans, who shared with the sellers a sob story about losing his house in Katrina, but did not share his plans to turn the property over to Mother Moonbat and her army of tie-dyed creepazoids, who will use it as a base from which to disrupt the President’s vacations at Prairie Chapel Ranch.
Mark Mattlage’s last words to Sheehan were, “You can go away now.” He wasn’t speaking only for himself.

You’re not all that bright, are you old veteran? The author’s name is posted, and he cross-posted it at his website and that is noted also.
Don’t know how to read, do you? Or comprehend what you’re reading? Poor thing.
Why don’t you take your narrow little mind and go to some counseling to get rid of that bitterness and hatred of those you don’t understand? And perhaps get some reading glasses so you don’t make idiotic comments like ‘not sure who wrote this tripe’. Everything is right there for you to see.
Yet another reason to call them blind moonbats, Van Helsing, chalk up another!

I don’t profess to know much about Sheehan. In fact I don’t profess to know anything about Sheehan, except that: She is a mother.
She has lost her son.
She has lost her son to a cause that she didn’t believe in the first place. And as a mother, who has lost terribly, I believe she and those like her, demand your respect. Like her, or loathe her. Unless we have lost equally, and on those terms, we have no say.
Before developing an argument against Sheehan or her political activities, one must ascertain, clearly and unquestioningly, in their mind, why they believe the Coalition went to war (in Iraq) in the first place. (And why didn’t Bush effectively neutralize Afghanistan prior to?)
Sheehan is a woman who has LOST her child. And in the name of that grief, she has become an advocate for peace. Perhaps, in our destructive world, certain conflicts, wars and attrocities are required, but let’s not become outraged at those who wish to become advocates for peace. Direct such rage at the war mongers themselves. (Did you know: Bush’s I.Q. is only 92? Woah. Now that’s a leadership worry.)

Kerry’s grades were worst than Bush’s and he claims to be so much smarter.
bwahahahaha!
I think what has your panties in a bunch if that we’re allowed to talk back. Today, there are more than just three television stations; three major newspapers, and a handful of national magazines run by liberals.
Liberals can no longer make their arguments in a vacuum.
The long-running monologue has turned into a dialogue and it seems you don’t like it much.
So now you re-create a world where you can hurl slander and treason without anyone talking back.
Democrats idea of harmony is; democrats win everything and nobody else is allowed to talk.
Next, you chose messengers that we’re not allowed to respond to. That’s why you see so many sobbing hysterical women like Cindy Sheehan. You’re not supposed to respond to them because that would be questioning the authenticity of their suffering.
Liberal spokesmen are people with ‘absolute moral authority’–democrats with a dead husband, a dead child, a wife who works for the CIA and has pictures taken of herself in Vanity Fair, a fake purple heart, or a terminal illness.
It’s the “lifetime” tv network of political parties, preying on people at a time of extreme emotional vulnerability and offering them fame and fortune to be that month’s purveyor of hate.
Cindy has had her 15 minutes, courtesy of Fenton Communications; and a worldwind tour (as I recall she was complaining about her fake fast during a trip to Venice).
It’s also nice to know how long Casey had to wait for a headstone while she was busy buying herself a new car with the insurance money from her own kid’s death, and a monument to herself.
Update!
We seldom see the back of Mother Sheehan’s monument:
The typo (no question mark) speaks volumes about the intellect of these perpetual screw-ups.

Y2Krashman, to set aside the weepy posturing for a moment, this odious Sheehan woman has used her dead son as a prop in her campaign to undermine the cause he died fighting for. If she has no respect for her son’s memory, how can anyone be expected to respect her?

Okay. I was a would-be commando. Spent months training myself intensely, did a series of gym based boot camp scenarios, studied numerous books and DVD publishing on SAS survival and tactics. My mother was vehemently opposed to my objectives.
If I was sent to fight a war that was not specific to the freedoms of my country (Aus), then I think my mother would be campaigning against the war-driven, industrial and socio-political objectives of the government.
All war is bad. However, every liberty I can think of is spattered in blood. I’m also aware that, because of the stupidity and ignorance of the blind followers, those subserviant to tradition, it always requires blood and conflict for evolution.
It is human nature to be corrupt. It is human nature to be swayed by the masses. It is human nature to fear change. To fear progress. To fear the unknown.
I’m not professing to like any of America’s leading candidates. I just find it questionable, that somehow, a moron, with subpar intelligence is capable of achieving that level of political power. Someone who then garners the sway of a cult of (equally moronic) voters who uphold his idiocy under the name of patriotism.
It is true. We do need a foothold in the middle east. Because of WMD’s? Terrorists? Don’t be an idiot. These are peripheries. Merely secondary objectives, expendible to the primary goal. We are a world of coal based industry. Fossil fuels. Bush knows this all too well. He wouldn’t be, sitting on his white house throne if it wasn’t for oil. Oil money past, oil money present.
The balance of current civilisation must be maintained. US and them. West vs world. We must control oil, if not, what becomes of the world when we run out? Starvation. Death. Anarchy. The collapse of modern civilisation.
This is what we fight for. SO when you support this, and smile under your banners of US patriotism. Just realise this. It’s a grim revelation. There’s no right sides. It’s now survival of the fittest. Dog eats dog. We are not fighting for a just cause. Don’t be a moron, and deceive yourself with patriotic self deception.
So when you oppose Sheehan you “must ascertain, clearly and unquestioningly, in (your) mind, why (you) believe the Coalition went to war (in Iraq) in the first place.

Yes, Cindy, we DO need peace, so why don’t you do us all a big favor and SHUT YOUR UGLY FREAKIN’ PIEHOLE!
I’ll give the old bag some “respect” alright…. I respectfully fart in her general direction.
