Pat Boone Blasts Cindy Sheehan
Pretty pathetic Pat. No signs of 'Intelligent Design' in Pat's world.


CAMPED OUT IN CRAWFORD
Pat Boone shreds
Cindy 'peaceniks'

Pat Boone


Music legend Pat Boone is blasting the peace message of Cindy Sheehan and other anti-war activists, claiming their rhetoric is making the U.S. more vulnerable to future terrorist attacks.

"This lady and the groups that have been demonstrating in front of the president's ranch in Crawford and following him around are the very same people that were the dropout, turn-on, anti-war peace activists back ," Boone said. "They still have this crazy notion that by just being peaceful and maybe toking up or something like that – it's like an ostrich with its head in the sand – maybe the danger and the bad guys will go away and leave you alone, which is not gonna happen."

During the program, Boone, a well-known Christian, took a strong stand against evolution, mocking the notion the U.S. would become some kind of repressive society if the theory of evolution were not taught in schools, and he supported the teaching of "intelligent design.

9. Pat is quite the freeper.
He's entitled to his opinions, but I hoped that he would have had any epiphany or two since the Vietnam War.

11. Put yourself in Pat's white shoes...
and you'll probably be an idiot like Pat. Pat hasn't evolved past 1960 and those ugly assed white buck shoes yet. The Pats on the Rabidly, Radical, Right, are out of control, wanting to kill people in South America and attacking a Gold Star Mother.

Where is their "MORALITY", "COMPASSION", "FORGIVNESS", "HONESTY", "SANITY"?

Both Pats got big tax cuts from Bushco, do you think that that might be why they defend the cowardly liar and thief in Crawford.

17. I'm not surprised. He spoke out for the fundies during the Shiavo hoopla
He brought up his grandson who had been injured in an accident and drew parallels to Terri Shiavo as he defended the fanatical fundies. :eyes:

18. I don't recall Pat Boone ever being in the military
Back in the 50s he was all over TV in his white bucks, but I don't remember him being drafted or joining up. Maybe he got out of it by marrying and having all those kids.

21. Dear Pat Boone
Edited on Sun Aug-28-05 09:31 AM by SalmonChantedEvening
Let's do a little math, shall we? Cindy Sheehan is 48. With me so far? Good! I will turn 47 next month, so with a little mad mathematizin we now know I'm a year younger. Isn't this fun??

Now it gets a little tricky, cuz we're gonna do subtraction. Chin up lil camper it aint that hard. Lets use 1969 as a base date, okay?

2005-1969 = 36

48-36 = 12

We have now deduced that Cindy was 12 in 1969, 7th grade tops, agreed? YAY! Toldya this was fun!!


I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that Cindy wasn't organizing much more than her church life, homework, record collection, and her social life in Junior High at the time. I may be wrong here, so let me know if you find out she was running with the Weathermen, k? Thanks.


Half of the people out at Camp Casey were not EVEN ALIVE in 1969, and if they were, the only thing important to them at that time would have been their next change of diapers, or when the cartoons were coming on TV. Granted there are some of those 1969 people there, who are now successful members of society (eveel ice cream moguls EEEK!) and grandparents (sorry yall lol ;)) but there is a new generation joining with the older, and the not so older to form a group that defies your small and very mistaken assessment of who they are, and who WE are as the American left.

Now that that's cleared up Pat, let's talk about your massacre of Tutti Frutti. You've carried that burden for far too long. Admit it was a crime, and we'll be more than ready to forgive.

Does he still wear the bad shoes? I thought Abbot labs was working on a new anaesthesia made from a Pat Boone Perry Como gene splice? "Pat, Pat, they need you in NO!. Gods having a hissy fit. Take Lassie."

26. this comment is very telling...
"This lady and the groups that have been demonstrating in front of the president's ranch in Crawford and following him around are the very same people that were the dropout, turn-on, anti-war peace activists back ," Boone said. "They still have this crazy notion that by just being peaceful and maybe toking up or something like that – it's like an ostrich with its head in the sand – maybe the danger and the bad guys will go away and leave you alone, which is not gonna happen."

Of course, the bad guys, as we see them are the Bush administration... and in that sense I agree with Pat. Peaceful demonstrations, idiotic protest drumming, giant puppet waving, sign sloganeering, are next to worthless protest tools, especially in a situation as dire as ours. Yeah, it was nice that Joan Baez showed up to sing folk songs, but what would have been more useful, not to mention effective, would have been a truckload of club waving Teamsters from about 1930 top show up instead.

27. pat boone was there for the joke that destroyed racist watt
james watt, reagan 'interior' secretary was on a redeye with several other 1st class passengers including boone, sonny bono and john dean when he told a repulsive racist joke that appalled john dean enough that he brought it to public attention...watt was drummed out of government by reagan. (the joke was that all white men need to be happy are 'tight pussy, loose shoes and a warm place to shit') the fact that boone wasn't enraged by this says everything anyone needs to know about pat boone
(how do you fight the pig? is it possible to do so w/out hurting the decent people who share certain traits with the pig? maybe the pig shouldn't be fought at all ie christ's 'turn the other cheek'? i grew up among racists, and became acclimized to their hideous ideas of humour, so wonder about applicability sometimes)
pat boone should at least have the decency to shuttup about cindy sheehan, shouldn't he?

When those ostrichs had their heads in the sand during the Vietnam era was he packing a carbine to fend off the commie threat?
