so you lose your right to a redress of grievance once you leave the United States?

Nuts, didn't you know that opinions were like flora or fauna and must be cleared by customs upon entering a country?

Trust me, I'm not a toy for your amusement. Shoo, little gadflies.

But we get such a chuckle at your expense.

^ Indeed. But remember, the flame knows no master.

1/4/2007 2:42:04 AM

Wait. So what's her deal now anyway?

Like, I understood she was nuts from losing her child and all.

But now it's like she just enjoys the attention more than getting her message out.



I didn't pay too much attention to her. What's up?

I fight for people's freedom to be as stupid, hateful, disrespectful, and mean as they want to be. I just also hope people have the good sense not to be stupid, hateful, disrespectful, or mean. And when people say stupid things, I totally support private enterprises like radio stations to use their powers to punish. Nothing wrong with private enterprises discriminating based on stupidity or unpopularity.

I also think people should not be disrespectful to a current president. We'll see how well I can follow my own expectations if you idiots elect Hillary Clinton, but I still think I can dissent without disrespecting.

if anything the opposite is true...

her cause might be a little extreme or misguided in specific intentions

but she has only stayed on message with something like this.

i dont hope she succeeds, but you have to atleast concede her message discipline

My bad!

HUGO HIT THAT SHIT

1/4/2007 10:45:33 PM

^^ that being said,

fuck her and her selfish use of her son's death for her own maligned cause

1/4/2007 11:23:22 PM

is it any less selfish to use her son's death to demand the destruction of the entire bill of rights?

A major tenant of Soap Box discourse has been bypassed in this thread. Before posting a thread, please ask yourself this very important question:

-Why does this matter?

For example, if I wanted to post a thread about Hugo Chavez, I would ask myself "Why should Hugo Chavez matter to most American citizens?" The answer would be that his country is of significant importance to this country, as it holds key energy reserves. His alliances with Iran and North Korea (which pretty much mean he's more interested in world power and attention than socialism in Venezuela) are also of note, since those countries are looking to enter the ranks of nuclear nations.

Now to this thread:

Why should we care about Cindy Sheehan?

1/5/2007 11:38:44 AM

because the media does.
no...thats not a good answer.
because her son died.
no, that doesnt make her different from 3000 other mothers.
because she is loud.
no, thats like making a thread about half the soapbox posters.


i got nothing.

1/5/2007 8:29:55 PM

why should we care about cindy sheehan? because the moonbat liberal media (puffington host, et al) championed her and her cause as long as it hurt bush, but has fallen strangely silent now that her actions are potentially damaging to democrats

caring about cindy sheehan is essentially just a proxy to caring about liberal media

has she accomplished anything yet?

1/7/2007 4:57:14 PM

1/7/2007 8:19:12 PM

She had a full segment, sit-down interview on a major cable news channel this weekend.

Quote :

"Whenever I hear the shrill and quivering voice of Cindy Sheehan speaking on the news a cold shiver of horror tickles my liberal spine. I don’t even need to see her pinched drama-mask of a face leaking tears on command for the cameras to know that something really stupid is about to ooze out of her mouth. Whether it’s leaving granola wrappers on George W. Bush’s front lawn or screaming randomly at some lame Democratic apparatchik like Rahm Emanuel, you know what she is saying is going to make the liberal soul cringe. I have to confess, I fell for her first stunt. I think every relative of a dead soldier is entitled to one public outburst where they cry and hold an 8”x10” picture of their son. Sheehan’s one allowed outburst was fabulously well-timed. She trekked to Bush’s Texas Ranch in 2005 demanding an audience with his lordship. She would never grant that audience. She set up “Camp Casey” the day he began one of his bloated five-week vacations. Protestors accumulated in a roadside ditch, wantonly bedraggled and magnificently pitiful. Nearby ranchers leaned on their cattle fences, chewed pieces of straw and pushed Stetsons from sun-red foreheads in a uniquely Texan form of bemusement. Seeing a bunch of liberals huddled in a drainage ditch and singing Kumbaya must have been as strange a sight to them as a pink giraffe or an ACLU card. A few even spoke out and said Bush should just get it over with and talk to them, although this goodwill evaporated once the port-o-johns started leaking. A five-week standoff developed, with Bush roaring past the protestors (and their attendant media crews) in black armored SUVs. He waved at first, but by the second week there was the real sense that he was under siege. It was all very hilarious to me. I could think of no one more deserving of a ruined vacation. He lost a couple popularity points and looked callous, so liberals could overlook Sheehan’s ceaseless screaming and annoying self-righteousness. It was in good fun, after all. Then something horrible happened. Camp Casey broke up and the liberals started to drift back to their respective universities and sodomy collectives. Everything seemed to be winding down. The media was heading home. Bush was back in Washington. Sheehan was ready to call it a day. Oh no, wait, she wasn’t. Cindy Sheehan had decided to turn her media stunt into a crusade and, worse still, several liberal activist groups had decided to start championing her cause. She became the equivalent of one of those Olympic gymnasts who gets an endorsement deals, only instead of sneakers and PSAs for butt cancer, she was shilling for 100% total crazy. She is a disgrace to the anti-war movement and she has become its most vocal advocate. "

Word. Now, it's time to get back to the sodomy collective.
