John Cole reports Malkin's latest smear against Cindy
Now This is an Obscenity
By: John Cole August 15, 2005 at 2:08 pm



*** Warning ***

Unhinged rant ahead.

Look- Cindy Sheehan’s statements should stand on their own, and from my perusal, some of them are pretty damned outrageous. Likewise, it is my opinion that many of the ‘peace’ and ‘anti-war’ groups that are now aligned behind Cindy are pretty damned vile. Furthermore, it is clear to me that this President means what he says, that we are not leaving Iraq until he says so (no matter what the polls say), so the only reason Democrats are grabbing on to Cindy is for partisan gain and for retribution for real and perceived sins over the past few years. Fine. All well and good, I am not afraid of saying so and dealing with all of the bullshit and catcalls from the left.

But this kind of bile coming from Michelle Malkin is fucking out of line, and spare me the ‘like it or not, this is news’ crap. It is goddamned disgraceful. Knock it off, take down that post, and then apologize. Cindy Sheehan’s marital status, her relationship with her husband- none of that is your damned business. Even if you think it ‘proves’ a point. If it proves anything, it proves that losing a son in war fucks up families. Thanks for the deep insight.

No fucking shame. I don’t give a shit what even the nastiest folks on the left say about Malkin anymore. She brings this shit on herself, with vicious bullshit like this. No wonder she rushes to defend Karl Rove at every opportunity.

2. I think this woman makes Ann the man look like a liberal..she really
is a sick person, I guess money will do unspeakable things to a nut like her.

3. Have we reached the "at long last have you no shame?" moment yet?
Because we certainly are back in the McCarthy Era.

4. RW spends all their energy arguing that NOBODY SHOULD LISTEN
to alternative voices, and that's why Cindy's meeting with Bush is so critical to both sides. It's the principle that a citizen can still speak to power, and the power owes the citizen a true explanation.

The conservatives say, "oh, she's divorced and grieving. She's political. She said something else before. She's got a link on Moore's site. Nobody should listen to her."

Rather than justifying the war, they argue that they don't have to justify it, to you and me and people like me. We don't count because we are anti Bush, so the only people they have to speak to are pro Bush already. That's why Bush can screen his PUBLIC meetings.

6. Someone on the freeper board try to compare Cindy
to John Roberts like since we are prying into Roberts life, it is fair game to do that to Cindy, except for one little problem.

CINDY SHEEHAN IS NOT RUNNING FOR A GOVERNMENT POSITION!

she is just a Mom of a dead soldier wanting some answers. John Roberts still have both his kids? Yes, does he know the heartache
of death from a war? No... Freaking freeper logic

I know I don't. She doesn't even make sense.

11. I gotta go and get a beer after reading the link to Malkin's shit
and then reading through the posts at balloon-juice. Then I think I'll go flush my head in the toilet to see if I can flush that crap right outta my head!

Hmm, well I'm glad to see some of what he thinks of the LEFT
revealed. Had more respect for him before I read this. Now all I respect is his knowledge.

14. What Bush and R's can't tell us: Casey died in order to
install an Islamic Republic in Iraq...

Hey, that's exactly the opposite of what neocons told us would happen.
