Crap Throwing Monkey Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 News update, Bush is about to go on a Uncontrollable Swearing Binge, brought on by Cindy Sheehan buying a 5 acre ranch in Crawford...''Their Now Neighbor's'' http://www.breitbart.com/news/2006/07/27/D8J4FIGG0.html You thought she was a Bush burner before? 730904[/snapback] Poor lady. Plenty of other people lost sons in Iraq and oppose the war and the president. She gets national - and maybe international, I don't know - fame simply because she's gullible and easily manipulated.

I think his father finally did it a few months ago. She could have used the money to help out her other children, who want her to come home and not wander around likea nomad. The idiots in Code Pink(o), have her so messed up, they probably talked her out of the rest of the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She spent it as she saw fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not then you probably don't know how it feels and you certainly don't know how you'll react until/unless it happens. Losses like that can change people forever. I hope you never find out what it feels like. How about a little tolerance? She's not hurting anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's been used and manipulated to other peoples gains. You need to recognise that. She actually is hurting people. If you cant understand that, then you need to reflect some more. Again, I'm sorry for your loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romney got an article posted on CNN about him apologizing/explaining it, and no "repurcussions" of any kind. Here's the article on Byrd: http://archives.cnn.com/2001/ALLPOLITICS/0...slur/index.html The Same exact consequences (nothing) happened to both.

Hell, all I've seen throughout this whole thing is one black guy who was mad and quoted by a news agency. No protests, picketing, or anything of substance. IIRC Byrd also nipped it in the butt before the showing was aired, after it was taped, and apologized beforehand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
