179. War is not the answer when war is the very thing you are protesting
What Cindy is doing is BRINGING people together, not dividing them. Bush and his neocons are the ones dividing our nation and waging war. Cindy is trying to bring the troops home and unite everyone with PEACE.

Speaking of which, peace be with you.

175.  HEY... FreePricks ! ! ! ! . . . . .
:hi: How do you spin this, asshats? One of your fellow kool-aid swilling ZOMBIES just desecrated a bunch of crosses and ran his truck over a bunch of American flags that OUR SOLDIERS DIED FOR.

You know you guys are real patriots, smearing the mother of a fallen soldier, real classy.

ARMCHAIR PATRIOTS..... that's all you are.

Keyboard warriors.

Pathetic! Just like your simian hero.

153. We can make them really tough too!
I propose that every third cross gets mounted on rebar bundles driven about 48" into the dirt. I think the next Billy Bob truck driver would quickly discover that the crosses have a pretty wicked bite.

76. Yes. Remember the story of the Bush supporter who came to the camp
just because he wanted to see if his dead son's name was on one of the crosses? (It was.) That cross with his boy's name on it meant the world to him.

As horrified as I am that soemone did this, it does show the sane fence-sitters what these extremists are really like.

32. Talk about disrespect....
Don't they have police there around the clock?
I'm worried because these people are crazy and to "let her stay there" would mean 'defeat' to them. They'll incite some sort of violence and someone will get hurt.

Can we get some sort of protection out there? Any Hollywood liberals want to send a few body guards or bouncers????

I'm worried about them.

40. People....we KNOW what we are dealing with....so,
why are we so continually surprised when they lie? mow down crosses? say the things they do and act like they do? We've seen how many years of this administrations' its followers misbehavior, slime, despicable acts. NOTHING that they do or say surprises me...disappoints me, makes me sick or sad or angry, yes - but I think that we are dealing with a combination of evil and ignorance....a very bad mix.

So at least the police have some sensibility about the potential for things to get crazy. At least this time they didn't blame the victim.

46. Vandalism that's easily remedied and will show these troglodytes . .
. . . for what they are. Not just damning disrespect for our dead, but a damned foolish move politically. "What kind of asshole would do THAT?" is the question on a lot of peoples' lips at the moment. And if anyone has a picture of everyone's favorite St. Louis Cardinals fan, we can show the world just exactly what kind of asshole would do that.

I'm more flabbergasted than angry, for the moment. I mean, why? What are they trying to prove? They can 'undo' the protest? Too late. They can 'unmake' the symbolism? Too late. I just... I just don't get it. Some stuff is just fucking messed up.

96. Far from undoing the symbolism
A redneck in a pickemup truck blithely running down a memorial for fallen American boys and girls really says it all for me.

Of course they don't care, as long as the gas is in the tank, and a six pack is by their side, they are macho men.

68. If The MSM Doesn't Go Into...
...their standard "What? We Didn't See Nothin'!" mode, then the Freeptards have just rewarded Cindy with the match.

The truck driver will surely be only too happy to shoot off his mouth to the press about his superpatriotic support-the-troops-but-over-here actions (preferably in a liquered-up state); the GOP will then have to distance themselves from him/it; the Circular Firing Squad will promptly be back in action as the yoyos who want to award the truck driver with the Medal of Honor and the others who just want him to go away start sniping at one another.

Rednecks have been good to us this week, what with the gunfire and vandalism. The GOP will regret pandering to them.

Their ever-building fear demands it.

Their false-christianity demands it.

Their hatred for anything not Repug demands it.

Their panic demands it.

Their radio-hate-fest demands it.

Their allergy to the truth demands it.

Their loss of control of the message demands it.

Their nagging little consciences demand it

and of course their sad, weak little Fuehrer demands it.

I'm hoping somebody like Keith Olbermann sends a crew down to Texas to film this disgraceful action. Talk about dishonoring the dead! My god, it's their Precious Leader that reigns supreme in their minds above all else. This the epitome of a cult. I think America needs to see what these nutjobs are up to. Cindy Sheehan has opened up a can of worms and the profound ugliness of the most insidious parts of the Republican party is being exposed. America MUST see this.

137. Time for a Reality Check ............
tonight it was the crosses, tomorrow it could be the tents...with people getting seriously hurt or worse, killed. It is time for those at the camp to stand watch during the night. We need to get them some help in the form of veterans or other able bodied persons to make this camp safe for everyone. Of course they could ask the local sheriff to handle this, if they were doing their job it may not have happened. I know if I was sleeping along side that road tonight, my tent would be up on the other side of the fence or I ain't sleeping at all. This is some serious shit folks, I grew up near Kent State, so I know how some protests have been quelled by the Fascist Republicans. That very well could happen here if we are not careful. Let's get something done right now.

don't do anything to them until Corporate Media has taken pics of them. Then have them show folks mending them and putting them up after.Besides, it is a 'crime scene', isn't it?

149. The crime scene point is a good one.

I was counting on the whole camp having taken pics and video of the incident and the remains of the display.

What I meant was that the Arlington West creators must have put hours upon hours of work into the display -- and most likely everything will have to be recreated (the crosses, crescents and stars of David) from scratch since a big truck went crashing into it.

I am willing to pitch in for the new materials.

145. A sunrise reconsecration prayer service
I sunrise re-consecration prayer service would be appropriate. It should be quiet, understated, and sincere.

147. Maybe I'm too cynical; this doesn't shock me in the least...
These are the same type of people who burn crosses, let alone mow them down. I can just see these SOB's joining Phelps in pissing on the graves of the soldiers. Remember, they really DON'T care!

But they can't/won't win.

186. Story is out: Those bastards at A.P.
Buried it in an article titled "Husband of 'Peace Mom' files for divorce" :(

Last Sentance:
"Late Monday, a pickup truck tore through rows of white crosses that stretched about two-tenths of a mile along the side of the road at the Crawford camp. The crosses bore the names of fallen U.S. soldiers. No one was hurt."

188. They do not want the dead soldiers to be remembered
They sneak the coffins of the war dead in, in the dead of night. In hs mind, he was just helping his beloved leader to keep the dead out of sight. They do NOT support the troops, they are ashamed of them, especially when they are dead or wounded. He knows Bush does not want us to see the results of his war.

They fired a woman and her husband for photographing the dead ~ why did we put up with this for so long? We need to demand that the MSM cover the war dead arriving home every day!! Enough of him hiding this. No wonder there's no outrage. This incident should bring to the forefront how this man has treated the dead soldiers.

Someone should start a memorial for the Iraqis. Maybe someone with a few acres could let that project begin. Until the American people see what war does, we'll keep having them.

They have spent the past week sliming the grieving mother of a dead soldier. They are despicable, sick, hypocritical. This is their idea of patriotism. They cannot relate to her pain at all. It's all about the 'leader'. They are a cult, and imo, dangerous.

A video of the shattered crosses was just on MSNBC. They had to mention Cindy's husband filing for divorce. What the fu$# does that have to do with anything?? They did not say that he was a Bush supporter! If this were Clinton, the headline would have been 'Clinton supporter destroys memorial to dead troops!' We have to get that message to everyone we can. I've learned from them.

This will forever be a symbol of the hypocrisy of the rightwing ~

189. A short one paragraph usually inserted in a story is all there is in

about 50 or so stories on a goggle search. Sad-as most headlines are about the divorse.

......Late Monday, a pickup truck tore through rows of white crosses that stretched about two-tenths of a mile along the side of the road at the camp. The crosses bore the names of fallen U.S. soldiers. No one was hurt........

Mom says request to talk to Bush remains focus of vigil

ANGELA K. BROWN

Associated Press

CRAWFORD, Texas - Since a grieving mother started camping out near President Bush's ranch 10 days ago, vowing to remain until he talks to her about the war that killed her son, she says other issues and groups have muddied her mission.

Critics are focusing on Cindy Sheehan's comments that Bush should be impeached, that she won't pay her income taxes, and that Israel should leave Palestine. And among the Web sites running her daily blog is "Fahrenheit 9/11" filmmaker Michael Moore's.

"It's obvious that she is promoting a political agenda," said Kristinn Taylor, co-leader of the Washington, D.C., chapter of FreeRepublic.com, which holds rallies to support troops and counter anti-war demonstrations. "Mrs. Sheehan has spent the past year in the embrace of the radical left of this country.".....

195. Hey, I think we need to cut the guy some slack.
Since he didn't have the time to go to the actual soldier's graves and desecrate them, he was just using a little good ol' American ingenuity and taking advantage of an opportunity that presented itself. I'm sure if he could go to the actual graves and do even more damage, he would. Besides, it's all Cindy's fault for letting them put the crosses up in the first place. :sarcasm:

What a sick bastard. I hope his sentence involves having to serve in Iraq until the war is over. What he did is unconscionable. Maybe the next protest should be held outside his house.

I would blast the story to the religous media outlets.

The Christian Christian Science Monitor would probably cover it properly.

202. Remembrance Day in the UK
I visited Westminster Abby on Remembrance Day. The church yard was filled of markers for the fallen. The markers were the same color as the fallen leaves. The ground was certainly sacred.

Are we to assume that the roadside memorials are not sacred?

201. This is symbolism perfected
Of everything the "other side" believes and wants. Bill O'Rielly. The pictures/videos of what happened at Abu Gharib. They want anything they don't agree with-no matter if in essence those crosses symbolize actual humans that DIED FOR THEM, or those that were tortured FOR THEM-they just want them to go away. To disappear. To cease to exist. To never have been. To not be spoken of.

The first thing that came to my mind was Stalinist Russia. All the mass graves. It never happened. We have a government that's trying to perfect that-just make the truth go away.
