Is this true...anyone know? |
|
Below is an email that a conservative friend of a friend sent to him. I know the wingnuts don't need to know if anything is true before spreading it. Just wondering if this is another smear campaign on their part...spreading lies. Anyone know? Here is what is says....
Ever wonder what "stuck on stupid" meant? The grinning idiot clinging to Je$$e Jack$on is none other than Cindy Sheehan... The sob sister protesting the war at Bush's ranch, she lost her son in the war... the same son she gave up in her divorce when he was 7 years old.
And by the way if you wonder why she has so much free time ... She is going through another divorce right now and guess what? She is giving up custody of a second son.!!!!!
As Forest Gump once wisely proclaimed, "Stupid is as stupid does."
Please DO pass this one along.

You're free to arrive at your own conclusion.

http://www.snopes.com/politics/war/sheehan.aspShe does NOT have a second husband; she is divorcing her first husband (Casey's father) but that's hardly uncommon in situations like this.

8. Hey, play nice with the newbie! |
|
The stuff passed around by the wingnuts infuriates me too, but not everybody has been around long enough to accumulate the tools to do a "reply all".
Help 'em build the tool box.

I am very defensive when it comes to Cindy.
It must be hard to take all the vile attacks.

12. No newbie - she's been around since 2004 |
|
Certainly long enough to know to (1)check Snopes or some other urban legend site and (2) don't post Dem/liberal bashing crap which doesn't even have a link. Even if she is clueless about those two criteria for posting, I'd say this poster really dislikes Ms. Sheehan. How bout it, OP? What do you think of Cindy Sheehan? If someone said crap like this about your best friend or your sister, would you repeat said VICIOUS comments verbatim to an audience of some 100,000, OR would you check it out by simply asking DUers where you could find out FACTS, that's F A C T S, I mean DOCMENTED, CITED FACTS ABOUT Ms. Sheehand's marital status & family history. You see, that way, you can assume the responsibility to make up your own mind based on F A C T S. And the facts are that Cindy loved her son and raised him with her one and only husband, and lost him to Bush-Cheney's insane war.
SHAME ON YOU! for repeating such vicious lies!

15. I say you don't know squat! |

I've been around here for 2 years and I am a strong supporter of Cindy Sheehan. It is people like you guys that give this place a bad name. I was NOT spreading crap. As I said, I was asking for help to debunk the rumor. So Kiss off!

25. You spread, or as we lawyers say, "published" the entire nasty story |
|
Edited on Thu May-25-06 04:48 PM by Divernan
when you included it in your post. And you STILL haven't answered my question about whether you would repeat all the vile details about your friend or sister (by name, I might add) to the huge audience of DU. You wouldn't would you?

Since you refuse to admit that you shouldn't have posted those awful things about Ms. Sheehan, you evidently think it's OK to do that.
On edit: I didn't say I was a "great" lawyer. The legal opinion about libel and "publishing" is 1st year law school info.

And every one of you in this thread who jumped to the conclusion about who I am and what my motives were...And were so quick to ATTACK. The arrogance of some of the responses so SO VERY wingnut!

11. It's best to realize early on any email from a right winger is a lie. |
|
Whether you're friends with them or not. I remember when WJC was the prez, a friend of mine emailed me some Clinton body count list. She believed it because she recognized a couple of names on there so those were real people. :eyes: I had to talk some sense into her.
