The Plot Thickens in Crawford

The anti-america anti-war movement sponsored by leftist groups like MoveOn.org, fronted by new anti-Bush poster-child Cindy Sheehan may be spinning out of control. Nuts have a way of drawing other nuts out of the woodwork and here they come…

60’s peacenik mom Cindy Sheehan started her anti-war anti-Israel rant back in March of 2005 in a letter to Nightline, almost a year after her son Casey was killed in action in Iraq. She has been camped outside President Bush’s Crawford Texas ranch for weeks now, becoming an international spectacle, demanding a second meeting with the President to tell him what she didn’t tell him in her first meeting. as if the President or anyone else on earth hasn’t already heard her political rhetoric.

Proud parents of fallen soldiers for whom Cindy Sheehan and MoveOn.org do not speak, are now in Crawford removing theirs sons and daughters signs from Cindy’s mock cemetery. They rightfully refuse to let Sheehan’s anti-Bush movement dishonor the sacrifices of their loved ones and they are rightfully shouting down those who seek to undermine the mission of our best and brightest still serving in combat.

But the plot is about to thicken even more as White Supremacist from Stormfront.org begin to make their way towards Crawford in support of Sheehan’s anti-Semitic statements. Stormfront.org members claim to be the original opposition to the war, based solely on their hatred of Jews and their belief that this war is only about defending Israel. 

White Supremacists are staging a rally of their own in Crawford this weekend, joining the anti-war media circus, but also trying to take the spotlight back from Cindy Sheehan and MoveOn.org, who they say "hijacked their issue".

as the world looks on, they are about to get a glimpse into not the best, but the worst america has to offer. They are about to get a clear look at our own homegrown extremists. Those united only in hate, against america, against our military and against this President, but otherwise divided among themselves.

as america’s best give all on the battlefield abroad, america’s worst congregate in Crawford Texas, demonstrating in their efforts to dishonor our fallen heroes, only that not all americans, not all free ideals, are worthy of defense. Some are quite indefensible and the clash of american extremists, launched by Cindy Sheehan and fueled by leftist organizations and leftist press coverage, threatens the peace in a small country town in Texas.

Even worse, it has caused proud grieving parents of true fallen heroes to feel they need to defend their heroes at home, just like they did during Vietnam. It is unforgivable…

But what is most unforgivable in this entire sordid tale, is that all of it, every bit of it, is the result of completely bogus irresponsible anti-Bush lies and hate-speech designed to undermine this administration in an effort to regain Democratic political power in the next two election cycles. Nothing is more important to today’s democrats, not even the lives of our soldiers, whose mission they undermine daily.

Because of their hatred for the current administration, proud parents will defend the honor of their lost loved ones in a face off against the extreme left element in america on one side and White Supremacists on the other, both of whom hate everything america has ever stood for, and everything these proud parents sacrificed for.

These proud parents will be forced to defend those who volunteered to defend us and the leftist american media loves every minute of it. MSNBC’s Chris Mathews calls Cindy Sheehan the voice of every american mother, yet she is not even the voice of her own family.

Mathews read from a Sheehan family letter, "The Sheehan Family lost our beloved Casey in the Iraq War and we have been silently, respectfully grieving. We do not agree with the political motivations and publicity tactics of Cindy Sheehan. She now appears to be promoting her own personal agenda and notoriety at the expense of her son's good name and reputation. The rest of the Sheehan Family supports our troops, our country, and our president, silently, with prayer and respect. Sincerely, Casey Sheehan's grandparents, aunts, uncles and numerous cousins."

Even the Boston Globe, not known for its slant to the right, can’t help but point out Sheehan’s underlying political motives. Her high school sweetheart husband has filed for divorce and still, the anti-Bush organizations and once mainstream press champion her cause as though it is some mainstream anti-war movement in america.

It has clearly become nothing more than another anti-Bush movement, guided by leftist political organizations and Democratic Party strategists angling for the next two election cycles, propped up by a leftist anti-Bush media and Hollywood socialists like Michael Moore. The american people should be totally fed-up and disgusted!

Our fallen heroes and those still on the battlefield deserve far better and so do their parents, now defending their honor in Crawford Texas against the likes of a few 60’s radicals and now White Supremacists.

The Democratic Party, the once mainstream press and the Cindy Sheehan’s of this country should be ashamed. They won’t be, but they should be.

as for the rest of us… Well, we have been voting people like this out of office for the last four election cycles and clearly, we still have a lot of work to do in the next few elections. We better stay focused, informed and involved because God help this country if people like this are ever allowed to run this place…
