The Hawk's Nest: Cindy's Big Kiss Off or Cindy's Tune has taken a Left Hand Turn.

Cindy's Big Kiss Off or Cindy's Tune has taken a Left Hand Turn.

This little tid-bit from MRC:

After Sheehan went on at length about how the U.S. is "building bases the size of Sacramento, California in Iraq. They plan on never leaving" and "I see
Iraq as the base for spreading imperialism. And if we don't stop them now, our
babies and our unborn grandchildren will be fighting this," Matthews suggested:
"You sound more informed than most U.S. Congresspeople, so maybe you should
run." In contrast, Cooper hit her with her own words, pressing her to re-affirm:
"Do you really believe the President of the United States is the biggest
terrorist in the world?" Cooper pushed her several times, but she wouldn't back
off her claim.

The quote set me to thinking about Sheehan and the agenda behind her. Cindy Sheehan had a terrible tragedy in her life and is being used by the extreme left. She blogs for Michael Moore. She welcomed a vigil by Moveon dot org in Texas. She is becoming mere and more shrill. She is out Howarding Howard Dean. She has in fact changed. She said publicly that she was unsure of the President's reasons for the war, but always wanted to "act in the way Casey would have wanted." All that has changed now.

World net daily dug up this telling piece of information from only a year ago. It appeared in the Vacaville, CA Reporter June 24, 2004: http://www.thereporter.com/republished/ci_2923921

But in the end, the family decided against such talk, deferring to how they believed Casey would have wanted them to act. In addition, Pat noted that Bush wasn't stumping for votes or trying to gain a political edge for the upcoming election.
"We have a lot of respect for the office of the president, and I have a new respect for him because he was sincere and he didn't have to take the time to meet with us," Pat said.
Sincerity was something Cindy had hoped to find in the meeting.
Shortly after Casey died, Bush sent the family a form letter expressing his condolences, and Cindy said she felt it was an impersonal gesture.
"I now know he's sincere about wanting freedom for the Iraqis," Cindy said after their meeting. "I know he's sorry and feels some pain for our loss. And I know he's a man of faith."
The meeting didn't last long, but in their time with Bush,
Cindy spoke about Casey and asked the president to make her son's sacrifice count for something. They also spoke of their faith.

Interestingly, her family is no longer backing her. Her husband has filed for divorce you can find those papers here: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/0815051sheehan1.html The co-called mainstream media will not speak to her husband or the rest of her family, because it would ruin the illusion.

The saddest part of this whole story is that Cindy Sheehan is being used. She will become more and more bitter as she is fed more and more hate speech. She will become more and more tired and sunburned sitting out in the Texas wilderness because there is no way any PR person with half a mind would let President Bush speak to her. That is a lose lose proposition. He spoke with her little more than a year ago and she came away believing the President - but after the Michael Moore's of the world got a hold of her story has changed and she is singing a new song from the left side of her mouth.
