Taxpayer wrote on Apr 18, 2008 5:44 AM:Ms. Sheehan was fine and her objections to the war were fine UNTIL she began meeting with this countries enemys. Then she crossed the line. Her next step like so many activists was to inflate the real numbers to make her case look better until she began to out and out lie about the war, the government and the military. When she crossed the line she became just another America hater who will do anything to make this country look bad. If the University paid for her appearance with my tax dollars they were wrong!

Mike wrote on Apr 18, 2008 9:00 AM:Gather from the posts here that nobody much liked Cindy Sheehan's talk (though it's a safe bet that none of the posters here attended). Doubt if any of the posters bothered with report issued yesterday by those wacky folks at the National Institute for Strategic Studies, a Defense Department research center, who rated Bush's war in Iraq: "a major debacle" (with credit given, where credit is due, to Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney & Condoleezza Rice).

Have to wonder, does this make the National Defense University "...just another America hater who will do anything to make this country look bad.", "Communist" and/or "Traitor"?

Cluck cluck wrote on Apr 18, 2008 9:13 AM:When we look at McCain, Obama, or Clinton (or any politician), how often do we decide to write them off because they are "in it for the money"? Never! Maybe it's a given. But regardless, the millions that any half-successful politician makes is no problem to us. Oh! But let an activist say things we disagree with and we roast them. We call them names and, unable to come up with any other reason why they do what they do, always fall back on: they're just in it for the money. So let's say she DOES make a pretty penny out of this. Does that have any bearing whatsoever on the truth of what she says? Of course not. But rather than discuss her actual opinions, we run around like headless chickens desperate to find SOME way to dismiss her entirely. A communist! An America hater! Greedy! Nuts! She hurts her family! Anything but dealing with the actual opinions, one by one. What a bunch of cowards.

Bush set the bar too low wrote on Apr 18, 2008 9:18 AM:Thanks to our President, no one can ever accuse someone of "using someone's death as a platform" again. Bush and Cheney used the 9-11 attacks as (Cheney's word) an "oppportunity" to expand the power of the Executive and to carry out unprovoked warfare that they had wanted to carry out from day one. Thousands of lives have been lost as a result. So I personally wouldn't hold it against Ms Sheehan if she did "use her son't death" as a reason to blast her opinions about this war. Compared to what Bush and Cheney have done, it's nothing.

Bob wrote on Apr 18, 2008 9:24 AM:WAKE UP AMERICA!!!! Anybody supporting impeachment of these war criminals has my vote!!!! What's wrong with you people????

There's strong evidence that these thugs were not only complicit in 9-11 but helped engineer it. And you're worried about her "emotional" state?

adamant has it backwards wrote on Apr 18, 2008 9:38 AM:Sheehan's son certainly did not die protecting this country from evil terrorists: he was in Iraq, and died early in the occupation. There wasn't even an "al qaeda in mesopotamia" there at that time, only Iraqis fighting the invading foreign power. And Sheehan isn't the one making America look bad. It's Bush and his military doing that. Why do you think people are shooting at our troops? Why do you think so many leaders of countries that chose to ally themselves with Bush have been voted out of office?

But you critics don't care about the trillions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of deaths your taxpayer dollars paid for. Yes Sheehan got paid something. So what. It takes money to live and run for office. Sheehan was just an ordinary (not some rich politician) person until the death of her son and then she did what most of us wouldn't and decided to stand out and do what an ordinary person (without daddy's millions) could do. Yet you people without shame call her a communist, traitor,America hater and what she is doing is a slap in the face of our military. So she makes money off of what she is doing. Do any of you Sheehan haters do any work for free. She has bills to pay and since she spends time trying to make our crooked politicians take responsibility for their crimes she should be paid. As I said you Sheehan haters have no shame or redeeming qualities. And furthermore I don't believe for moment that that one blogger knows her family.

There is no finsihing this except to get our of there and let them have their country back. We owe the Iraqi people big time.

As for Cindy Sheehan, she is a true partiot and hero.

We would not expect a mechanic to lecture for free about his work and expertise on fixing cars. Why do we demand that activists -- people promoting change and peace -- work for free? Activism is a full-time job and it is work. It is akin to a political pundit discussing politics on CNN. They certainly don't work for free. We need to teach people how to be active in the same way we teach people to be apathetic. Activists deserve to be paid for their services.

It is never wrong to do the right thing and to keep doing the wrong thing in order to save face is wrong. The war was wrong in the first place and keeping it going is not going to make it right. After all it is the Iraqis that will pay the price for us saving face.

We know about your view: it's on all the media, all the time. McCain and Lieberman get all the coverage they could possibly want, as does Gen Petraeus. It's the Peace side that gets almost no press, and it's a treat to finally get to hear that side a little bit. Thanks for the offer, though. When McCain, Bush, Cheney, Lieberman are all ignored by the media and when FoxNews goes off the air, I'll give you a call.

Great idea Skippy wrote on Apr 18, 2008 12:25 PM:Even though you happen to be wrong about the souce of Sheehan's talk funding, your claim that because you are a taxpayer, if she did get taxpayer money she should give it back is cool!

to adamant wrote on Apr 18, 2008 12:43 PM:I wasn't blaming the military for making us look bad. I know that they are motivated to help their country and respect that completely. The problem is that they DO make us look bad just by doing what they do. It's not their fault, they are doing what they are ordered to do. So don't confuse me with a knee-jerk military-hater. My point is that you can't invade and occupy a nation without "looking bad". That's just the nature of the beast. If only Bush and his followers and defenders had thought of this!

IRAQ WAR VET wrote on Apr 18, 2008 8:50 PM:What we need to finish is establishing a permanent security situation with the Iraq Security Forces. As far as the idiotic comments about burning books etc., I won't even digify with a response. As far as why we went in the first place, I agree. I was perfectly happy with the policy of containment against his regime. Unfortunately, he was a madman who was aptly hanged by HIS people for genocide against them. Let me tell you about the first free election. A 82 yr old Muslim woman came up to me at a polling place and proudly showed me her ink stained finger showing her vote with tears in her eyes. That made it worth it. We do not want another vietnam . We have shed the blood of my brothers and sisters. Most of us are Volunteering again for multiple tours. Need I remind you we hae no draft. Freedom isn't Free. Even Al Quadas second in command just remarked that Iraq is a perfect place to disgrace us and any ideas of Arab democracy. I respect everyones right to share their opinion and VOTE. The Iraqis had a higher turnout in their election than the US did. Maybe they don't take their newfound freedom for granted. Let the professionals fight like we are Trained and want to do and stay home and enjoy your freedom or get in the fight. It's not just Iraq it's worldwide against Muslim extremists who want to destroy your way of life. Better get used to it. Thank a MARINE OR SOLDIER IF YOU SEE ONE TODAY. As far as Sheehan goes, she is a miserable creature. I have already instructed my mother under no circumstances make an ass of yourself if something happens to me this time. I go back with both eyes open. Semper Fidelis.

I just think we can go about it by supporting our troops at the same time. I think it is important to honor the military personnel who have fallen in this war. I think it is important to support our military and our country at war time.
By the grace of God, we will get a president who will make wise decisions, so our troops will be able to come home soon.

The people she voted for have no power outside the green zone and Maliki dances to the tunes of the US so that woman in reality has no representation. It is our military who is paying protection money to the various malitias. I have had enough of these military people telling us how they are protecting us. Just maybe if they didn't go into other countries and create enemies we wouldn't have a problem. No I have had enough of this rubbish. As has been said the Vietnam war ended when we left. It will be the same when we leave although I don't think that we ever intended to leave. As far as calling Sheehan a miserable creature maybe if this Iraqi vet wants to see miserable creatures he should go into the refugee camps and talk to the people there because it is our military who put them there. Maybe he should talk to the widows and orphans that our military created. I am fed of with the hostile arrogant attitued of the military toward those of us who know why we are hated and it isn't because the other side is commposed of a bunch of people who hate us just for who we are. The military is the problem and not the solution.

Okay. What are you?

You go to war, on a nation, where your presence is causing the killing of many innocent people. How do you feel about that?

Anyway, I attended the meeting. Missed most of it actually. On the way out, I saw an advertisement for a class to study Upward Mobility, to get into it I suppose. Is that what we are about? Get into Iraq. Kill someone. You'll probably get promoted. Is that what you are about? The campus doesn't matter. A bunch of students interested in upward mobility. From what I saw, they weren't interested. In the point of the war. Who is?

It certainly is not the soldiers, who go into it, as if they expect to get killed... I hope she grieves.

A writer came from this newspaper... Sure he did. He arrived late. Very late. He missed the main things Sheehan said. So did many people that did not attend this pithy meeting. You live in a military county. What would you expect. This notion of war, is not a war. It has been repeated before. You are all fools! Think about it. Why don't we fight them here, instead of there. Or do you like that 'other' people are suffering for YOUR cause.

to Iraq Combat Vet wrote on Apr 19, 2008 8:01 AM:Thank you for your service and best wishes on your next deployment. The difference between you and most others is that you and your brothers and sisters serving with you risk everything for your beliefs. Cindy Sheehan is a disgrace not because she opposes the war but because she has used her son’s unfortunate death to further her misguided ambitions. Moms don’t do that. I was in the service during Vietnam and I saw first hand how many veterans were treated by the anti-military crowd. I have vowed to not let that happen again. The debate needs to continue but Cindy Sheehan’s rhetoric and the screeching from hysterical groups like Code Pink is counter productive. Many Americans are impatient with the Iraqi people. They forget how long it took this country to become established. There will be setbacks and mistakes have been made but the goals in this war are honorable.

Eric wrote on Apr 19, 2008 10:23 AM:That is what is so great about our country. Everyone is free to voice their opinion. And if Cindy Sheehan wants to embarrass herself and tarnish her son's image for a profit so be it. I am glad her son isn't alive to see all this. He was a volunteer who gave everything for this country. He obviously held different views than his mother. I attended CSUSM years ago and found the institution way to radically liberal for me. I left to attend a different school and strongly advise anyone else to do the research before enrolling to see if this school represents their views and personal values. You would think any legitimate institution for higher learning would offer a speaker with an opposing view to see both sides of the debate and leave the audience to make there on conclusions.

Chris wrote on Apr 19, 2008 10:31 AM:So this Iraqi war vet wants to tell us about this 82 year old woman who was so greatful that she got to vote. Vote for what. The people she voted for have no authority beond the green Zone and those people have to do what the US tells them. So this vote was a fraud. The US military is handing out millions of dollars of taxpayer money a month for protection so that the malitias won't attack them. It is the attitude of people like Iraq Vet that is the reason we will never have peace. Iraqi vet say's that Sheehan is a miserable creature. If Iraqi vet wants to see miserable creatures then he should go to the refugee camps and see the people there. After all it is our military that put them there. How about the Iraqi women that are now widows that have no man to take care of them or their children. Once again we can thank the military. I have had enough of these military types who's answer to everythig is more killing. The vietnam war ended when we left now we need to get the WARRIORS out before they do more damage.

I am an Iraq veteran, with two tours and firmly believe if you just leave us to complete the job at hand without jacko politicians and money grubbers, maybe, just maybe we'll finish eradicating the islamofacists, and get back to guarding our own borders.

I'd be crying too, as I showed you (US military with weapon)that I did IN FACT vote! And if that's not the way you see it, I'm sorry because we're counting on you to do the job you signed up for. Which of course is impossible, because there's no mission, only a quagmire. You can honor your friends by not going back again.

A lot of people have been killed since we took out the ruling sect, and no matter what we do a lot more people are going to die. Why are we throwing away American lives in this endless Islamic kill-fest? It's time to get out and let the natural Islamic bloodbath run it's course.

I do not think that Iraqi vet is being arrogant. He believes in defending our country. Remember, the Islamics attacked our country on Sept. 11. We were all happy at home doing our thing. They attacked us. We have a right and responsibility to defend our freedom for the future generations, if we want them to have the same freedom. These military people are out there fighting, so we can go to the lake and mall and know we are going to be safe. We can go to football games and sit in the stands, and know we are going to be safe with our families at the games. We owe our military a huge debt to gratitude. They put themselves in harms way so we can live in peace. Other people don't have it so good. As far as the comments about Ms. Sheehan, sadly what he said was kinda true. I can only figure that poor woman lost her life when she lost her son. My heart goes out to her and all those who have lost sons, daughters, husbands, and wives and friends in these wars. Sadly, Islamics desire to take over the world (just like the Nazis or any other oppressive regime), their words not mine. I don't know about you, but I am not bowing to Islam. I am grateful to the men and women who fight to protect our country from people who want to force their religion and way of life onto us. No thank you. No, it is the Islamics who are fueling these wars. In Iraq people voted for a government. Then Iran started funding terrorist activities in Iraq. No, it is the Islamics who are making orphans in Iraq. Our troops went to Iraq to liberate and they did. It is the Islamics, sponsored by Iran, who are killing innocent people in Iraq. If it weren't for the terrorists in Iraq, there would be peace in Iraq.

So if the reasoning goes that we took 284 years to establish our independence and create our Constitution - WOW - I guess McCain is right - we will be in Iraq for hundreds of years.
I attended Sheehan's speech (not affiliated with any blog or organization) and would place a bet that every one of you who objects to her right to speak out did not attend.
And how bout some facts - what has she said that is false? Tell me more about her family and your first-person, or reputable source, facts that she has shamed her family or the memory of her son.
When I returned from Vietnam in 1971, I got no disrespect, people were more interested in my well being and whether I would talk to them about my first hand experiences - and I returned to radical California. In fact I know no Vet that was disrespected in any way.
And Sheehan is not pushing for impeachment because she disagrees with policy, impeachment is mandated because bush/cheney are war criminals.

But in reality, the Sheehans that occasionally get a moment in front of a microphone, ARE the balance that is so missing from the national debate. How many people on the mainstream news have you see that insisted we get out of Iraq immediately? How many people have written columns in the NY Times that Bush and Cheney be impeached? If you guessed "zero" you get the prize. The famous "liberal" media won't even consider asking McCain a tough question. They're too busy with Hillary's pantsuits and Obama's lapel. But if you repeat "liberal media" often enough, then you justify screaming for your actual intent: to completely silence the true left.
