She's Baaaaaaaack!!!!
House Democrats tried to unveil their lobbying reform package today, but their press conference was drowned out by chants from anti-war activists who want Congress to stop funding the Iraq war before taking on other issues.
Led by Cindy Sheehan, the mother of a slain soldier, the protesters chanted "De-escalate, investigate, troops home now" as Democratic Caucus Chairman Rahm Emanuel, D-Ill., began outlining the Democrats' plans to ban lobbyist-funded travel and institute other ethics reforms. The press conference was held in the Cannon House Office Building in an area open to the public.
Emanuel finally gave up trying to be heard over the chants, and retreated to a caucus room where Democrats were meeting.
Sheehan says she has nothing against lobbying reform, but she and her fellow anti-war activists want Democrats to know they will keep pressuring Congress to end the war in Iraq.
"We wanted the Democrats to know they're back in power because of the grass roots," Sheehan says.
The anti-war activists held their own Capitol Hill press conference earlier in the day before deciding to attend the lobbying reform press conference as well.
Before the chanting started, Sheehan got a hug from Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., the new chairman of the House Judiciary Committee.

I know I swore I wasnt going to give Cindy another moment's attention, but this was a must. I guess Cindy got tired of living in that tree house in Texas and decided to go after the Democrat's for a change. So Cindy think's there was a "Grassroot's" effort to elect the Democrat's believing they were going to pull the plug on our Soldier's in Iraq! Ahhhh we are beginning to see a new view of the election here! It was'nt because Republican's lost thier way at all, it was because the far left loones thought the Democrat's were just going to up and run on Iraq, and leave our Troops standing there with thier D**** in thier hands! We tried to warn you far left loones the Democrat's were running on Promises they would never keep! Good Luck! You guy's have Cindy now! Bwahahahahaha.

I think the American public that is dissatisfied in the way this war has been prosecuted don't want less aggressiveness. They want more. As in Vietnam, America wants to win this war. Back then, polling showed that yes Americans were dissatisfied with the way the war was going; but they weren't calling for a retreat; they were calling for more aggression. And the anti-war demonstrators were not popular with the public.
One of the polls cited by the antiwar crowd today also reflected the same thing. That "dissatisfaction" with the war did not equate to Americans wanting us to "cut-and-run".
That's exactly it Wordsmith, exactly it. The majority of Americans are very dipleased about how the war is going. Most believe as I do that they have not be aggrssive enough and held the high ground long enough to turnthings around over there. I am so frustrated and I have been for sometime now.
I know I have said some unpopular things around some of my conservative friends about Don Rumsfeld handling og of the war. I still think he was an honorable person but damn, we wasted so much time pussyfooting around trying not offend people over there like the frickin Saudis. We needed to get togh and stay tough a long time ago and now we're in a last ditch situation of do or die. Gosh, I'm so frustrated!
On one hand you have these schluffs of human debris like Cindy Sheehan, Move On and that ilk trying to defeat their own country at all costs and then on the other side you have a poor execution of a difficult war.
We need to take control of the streets of Baghdad and the other trobled areas and keep them locked down and under control until the Iraqis are able to take control themselves. if we had done things that way all along we wouldn't still be talking about what to do next we would be talking about what a great success that was.
Cindy Sheehan and her ilk would be a just a memory.
Hi Marie,
So Marie, are we now seeing the new direction that the Liberals were so prominently bragging about?
While I read what J_G said about Cindy Sheehan and her ilk becoming just a memory I was curious if I could help in that department? LOL
Say Marie, When we all have our Liberal Hunting License, how many hunting points does one get for bagging a Cindy Sheehan? LOL
But seriously though, I read what WordSmith from Nantucket wrote and I agree with him 100%
I'll give her this, at least she's not particular about who she protests against. She is the ultimate media whore and I like your pic with a similar media whore, Jesse, "if there's a camera I'll be there, " Jackson. By the way be sure to check your e-mail. Thanks!
Word,
If that's all it would be then I could agree.
More aggressiveness is fine, but nutbag Cindy is once again the mouthpiece for the far left Lunatic's that WANT to cut-n-run.
Oh well the Dems have her now, she's thier problem.
Night,
There is no bag limit, and tagging is NOT required lol.
Ken,
Doesnt that just tell the story? lol
Checked my mail :-)
JG,
We could pull all the Troops out, and Cindy would still want more!
She will never be a memory, she will be around taunting Israel, visiting Hugo Chavez, and partying with Kim Jung Ill who I affectionately call the "Chia Pet" and she will never be satisfied until she get's her own Country blown off the map.
Donald Rumsfeld was an honorable man! He did the best he could. But it wouldnt have been enough no matter what he did for the "Blame America First" Crowd!
Actually, Marie, Mrs. Sheehan seems to be doing a lot better these days. I was sure there was noplace else to go but down, waaaaay down, after she buried her uterus in Texas, but as your photo shows, she's staged a remarkable turnaround.
Unlike last year's boytoy, the equatorial Mr. Michael Moore, her current squeeze at least owns a bathroom.
Happy motoring, and
Aloha Snackbar!
People think I make this stuff up.
Here's the Google search results:
