Two Silenced Shots to Go, Please

I'm really getting sick of this lady.  But then again, she keeps making my laugh out loud every few days.

Now she wants the troops out of occupied New Orleans. Yes, New Orleans is occupied by those mean old men and women with guns.  They were late getting there, so damn their hides, and they should go now, so anarchy can rule.  Good call!  (Thank Dog you'll never have this woman calling the shots in your life.)

Sheehan is supposedly a grass roots, groundswell kind of popular voice, eh?  All homespun and angry?  Then why did she sign a deal for speaking fees via the Speaker's Bureau?  Any legitimacy she may have had goes out the window with that calculated act!  Capitalizing on her son's death by gaining fame was in bad taste, but fortune to boot?  She's ruined her life for her liberal PR Svengalis!  Huzzah to her hubby who bailed at the first sign of liberal vacuity.  I'd like to buy that man a drink.

She drones on:

It is a Christ-like principle to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, and shelter the homeless. That's what is happening in Algiers and other places in Louisiana...but by the people of America, not the so-called "Christians" in charge.

So...the Christian ethic is to be applauded unless it's being applied by Christians?  So the kind-hearted people who happen to have a Christian background are to be mistrusted and vilified because they have faith in a God that the liberals can't stand?  It must burn her, and a lot of other liberals, that religious organizations are providing relief to so many people.  That's the job of the government!  So now she's moved on to judging religions.  Good call, that's a way to really win over support with Mr. and Ms. America!

I don't care if a human being is black, brown, white, yellow or pink. I don't care if a human being is Christian, Muslim, Jew, Buddhist, or pagan. I don't care what flag a person salutes: if a human being is hungry, then it is up to another human being to feed him/her.

And her socialist roots are revealed.  No, Cindy, I don't owe you a meal if you're hungry.  That's the kind of thing that makes people like me hold back donations from people who need them!  I'll feed and clothe someone of my own free will, but the second they demand it of me and lay claim to my property and hard work they'll be cut off.

George Bush needs to stop talking, admit the mistakes of his all around failed administration, pull our troops out of occupied New Orleans and Iraq, and excuse his [sic] self from power.

Well, he did accept responsibility for the mistakes of everyone down the chain.  What more do you want?

What does Sheehan want? Well, I’d say her immediate want is to continue to be heard, loved and loathed, by as many people as possible. Like a whining child at a holiday dinner, any attention is still attention. As long as her scatter shot stream of grief warped consciousness keeps hitting enough marks to elate and enrage some minimum threshold of people, she’ll keep nabbing headlines. Once we (the Royal We) become bored with her, what'll she really have left?

I don’t find her particularly insightful. I never believed she was crowned with wisdom because her son died in Iraq.

From the same Sheehan article:

“When our fellow citizens are told to "shoot to kill" other fellow citizens because they want to stay alive, that is military and governmental fascism gone out of control.”

I wonder what Sheehan calls it when her fellow citizens fire shots at rescue helicopters, or her fellow citizens shoot at relief workers or when her fellow citizens try to strong arm their way into hospitals to grab the drugs there.
