Cindy's War-Updated
Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan may be the best thing to happen to the Pro-war effort. It seems the lefty Sheehan has produced so much indignation on the Right, that a new movement has begun, called the "You Don't Speak for Me Cindy Tour", led by Move America Forward. Read on:
The “You Don’t Speak for Me, Cindy” Tour continues to grow in momentum with supporters gathering at their final California stop on Wednesday and making two stops in Arizona – in Phoenix and Yuma.
Move America Forward (website: www.MoveAmericaForward.org) has organized the tour to bring military families together to express the fact that they DO support the troops AND the mission they are serving in Iraq.
The tour is led by Deborah Johns, Co-Founder of Northern California Marine Moms. Johns’ son, William, has served two tours of duty in Operation Iraqi Freedom and is likely to serve a third tour.
There's nothing like a threat to our Freedom to get America motivated. What Sheehan and other's like her don't get is we're not fighting communist in far away jungles anymore, but an enemy who may be in our own back yard. Remember 9/11 anyone?
Update- Here's NewsMax take on Sheehan's backfire:
"Peace Mom" Cindy Sheehan's Bush-bashing protest has apparently backfired, with a slight plurality of Americans saying her antics have actually made them more likely to support the Iraq war, according to an ABC News/Washington Post poll released Tuesday.Seventy-nine percent of those surveyed said Sheehan has had no impact on how they view the Iraq war.
But 10 percent say the tart-tongued Californian, who blames Israel for terrorism and said she wants to curse out the president to his face, has actually made them more pro-war.
Powerline has a different take on this.
