Could someone club this biatch like a baby seal or something?
 
2006-11-08 11:46:13 PM  
Someone post the 'attention whore' photo please.
 
2006-11-08 11:47:01 PM  
Heaven help us when she can't get arrested.

Cause then out comes the leaked sex tape.
 
2006-11-08 11:48:26 PM  
I'm against the "War" and against this admin but this biatch needs to STFU and go away.
 
2006-11-08 11:49:30 PM  
Well, the Dems might want to throw her under the wheels of a bus, but now they're stuck with her. Gonna be fun seeing her establish Camp Pelosi or throw pig's blood on Democrats outside the House or the Senate when she doesn't like what they do for the next two or six or 10 years.
 
2006-11-08 11:58:47 PM  
Can you say "Attention Whoor Biatch?"

I like the way you said that.

/doffs sweater.

Please un-greenlight this.
 
2006-11-09 12:02:36 AM  
Just like K-Fed...

Ignore her and she'll go away.

Who cares. The Democrats got elected. Not the looney ones, but the centrists. As long as the far right can brand her with moderate Democrats, people will continue to believe it...
 
2006-11-09 12:03:49 AM  
I applaud her tenacity. She might be a little off kilter, but she still gets out there and makes herself heard.

80,000 signatures, 50 protestors outside of the White House, and three other women were arrested as well. But of couse everyone focuses on Cindy Sheehan and calls her a attention whore.

If 50 people showed up on your doorstop with a petition of 80,000 signatures, wouldn't you be the slightest bit interested in what they were protesting about?

Then again, most of you people are easily distracted by shiney objects. Which explains why Bush was elected... twice. And probably why everyone believed his BS reasons for going into Iraq. Which is where Cindy Sheehan's son was killed.

But it is so much easier to call her an attention whore than having to deal with the reasons of why she is doing it.

You now may resume with your smarmy remarks.
 
2006-11-09 12:15:41 AM  
Say what you will, but I like the cut of her jib.
 
2006-11-09 12:17:54 AM  
You people don't know jack-shiat about Cindy Sheehan. She's nothing like what the media makes her out...and her intense grief at her son's death is not faked one damn bit.

I was one of her bodyguards at the S26 protests in D.C. and was arrested with her because we didn't have the right permits. You really get to know somebody when you go through something like that with them.

\and what the fark is up with needing a free speech permit anyway?

**Gets popcorn, lawn chair. The usual.**

I have extra room in my cooler if anybody beeds to store their beer. This may take a while.

real_headhoncho: But it is so much easier to call her an attention whore than having to deal with the reasons of why she is doing it.

Because her son volunteered to join a volunteer military and died doing the job he volunteered to do?

Honestly, if he felt as strongly as she does, he could have deserted, shot himself in the foot, fragged an officer and did his hard labor in Leavenworth, declared himself a Quaker, started jacking off to gay porn in the barracks, wearing a dress, etc. Why is she not fine with the choice he made?

I'll trade you some beer for some popcorn, Heroic Poser.

40below, please explaing the job he was supposed to be doing in Iraq. Bush keeps changing the reason so much I've lost track.
 
2006-11-09 12:25:47 AM  
Do you need a free speech permit to post here on Fark?
 
2006-11-09 12:25:54 AM  
I don't drink, but here. It's Jiffy Pop. Just hold it over the thread and watch the tinfoil raise up.
 
2006-11-09 12:26:34 AM  
Nope. Just 5 bucks per month like the rest of us TFers.
 
2006-11-09 12:29:18 AM  
Save that tinfoil. Some people need it for hats

And just to totally derail this thread for a few posts, if you compare something to Hitler and/or the Nazis, it's called Goodwining. What do you call it when someone "But Clinton..."s something?

I agree.... morans one and all.

Can't she just self-immolate like that one guy today? I think that would make a FAR more powerful statement.

I call it TGOTing.

Hey, you elected everybody down there, you people volunteered to staff the military, I don't have the time or patience to explain to you why you have the politicians you do, how you got them, what they are currently doing or what they are ordering your armed forces to do or how all those people wound up inhaling sand all day. You live there, I assume they have a civics class, maybe take it. All I'm doing is pointing out you have a volunteer military, just like we do, and they go where the government tells the generals to send them.

And if you don't like that, vote in a bunch of new politicians who will, immediately after they gain control of government, pull your forces out of places where they are getting killed if that's the issue. If they don't, well, I've kinda lost track too but I can wander away knowing it's not my country, not my war and not my problem.

That's some fine deflectin'

She's lost more to this stupid war than most folks.
 
2006-11-09 1:23:40 AM  
She's annoying, but I have never understood the obsession with her. It's not like she got 2800 Americans killed or anything.

Well to be honest it is the White House. There are people protesting there almost daily.

My house? That's another story. That party I threw last weekend was pretty wild and I don't remember half of what went on there.

/don't ask

So you're really getting a kick out of most of these replies.

Every single one of them needs to go.

I don't hate her. I don't love her. I just really really pity her.

Man, that's a whole lot to have to do... could someone start with the jacking off part first? Cause if they somehow couldn't carry out all the rest, at least they'd have had some fun for their effort.

I think they should continue to characterize diplomacy as weakness.

Actually I'd be rather curious why, out of 80,000 people, only 50 could be bothered to show up. Seems rather unimportant otherwise.


But it is so much easier to call her an attention whore than having to deal with the reasons of why she is doing it.


She seems to be a mother who, while grieving the loss of her son, has found an outlet which gives her something to focus her energies & frustration over her situation.

Personally, I doubt her reaction would be any different even if we had perfectly legitimate reasons to invade Iraq. The fact remains it's a horrible thing for a parent to bury a child.

A Night With Cindy
Watching the returns with the lefties and their leader.

no mention of arrest in the article - it looks like the clown left before her. but it shows how the right are obsessed with trying to build a strawman out of this poor woman - and it hasn't worked. still, i hope that you think that the best course of action is to 'stay the course' on this one too. you're pathetic
 
2006-11-09 5:09:49 AM  
Oh, yeah! Get your war on! Housewives love war and will all vote for you!

Dude, here is a simple tip about "flaming people on the internet": Don't look like you, post a profile pic, and then insult people. Just a tiny bit of advice.

Your idea of manly differs from the norm, me thinks.

To answer your question, my kind of man is the one that has the letters "w" and "o" in front of it.

She is still an attention whore and a tool. Your experience with her doesn't change that. You can find people who think Osama is a nice guy.

While Repub freepers are crying about a gold star mother who is against the war, something that 60% of americans agree with, Dems are out winning elections. The repubicans need a new playbook, stop demonizing gays and people who dissagree with you. No one wants to hear it anymore.

connacht: What a stupid, filthy whore.

So tell me mr. I know everything. What's the answer to her question? What noble cause did her son die for?
So Moqtada al Sadr could rule Iraq? So Iran could now have more political influence there than we do? So halliburton and others could make tons of money? So Al Qaeda could have a recruitment and training base far better than anything they had in Afghanistan?
