From the article....

"Sheehan is quoted to have said, "I'm appalled that Diane Feinstein wouldn't recognize how dangerous Alito's nomination is to upholding the values of our constitution. and restricting the usurpation of presidential powers, for which I've already paid the ultimate price."



This tells you everything you need to know about her. "I've"... I thought it was her SON who made the ultimate sacrifice?

She is nothing but a media "person who sells themselves for money".

I dont and wont get into the mix of the war in Iraq but I will say puck I agree those men and women who make the choice to join the armed forces do it to protect me and my family along with everyone elses families against attack. I personally have the upmost respect for those who make that sacrifice so that I may have my freedom.....

 

[joce]

I just can't beleive alito is making it to the court.His nomination is dangerous if not just for the fact that he seems to have no respect for roe vs wade.

 

[GlassOnion]

RvW is about abortion, correct? What's it say? (for or against?)

And isn't sheehan that girl who was making a big deal over her son's death in iraq and protesting outside GW's ranch and all that?


If so, yah she's a little...off. She's made the supreme sacrifice yet she's still here. Huhm...chew on that.

 

[joce]

Alito will change the structure of the supreme court so roe vs wade could be overturned making abortion illegal. My uncle leads the right to life nutts here and to hear them talk this is the worst thing that could possibly happen They are the ones that chase women away form even using a form of birth control,even if they have ten kids.

She is nothing but a selfish and self righteous witch. That woman is dragging her poor sons memory through the mud. No one is going to remember him for what he did for his country. Now they are going to remember as the soldier with the crazy mother. I still remember that picture of her sitting there all alone at her book signing lol.

She has not paid any sacrifice. Sur she lost her son and thats sad but HE made the sacrifice not her. All she did was flip flop back and forth between "i support the war" "i don't support the war"

I just think it is so wrong that she was all RAH RAH BUSH Then when something happened that directly affected HER it wasn't OK anymore. So let me get this straight. She was all for it when other peoples family were fighting and lost their lives but now that it actually affects her its not ok anymore? SELFISH

You don't have to agree with her politics. I think if she wants to say her son was the most important thing in her life, she should. A war mother was sacrosanct turf in wars past. I think too many of us have lost our manners.
You'll not find any either from Coulter,Hannity,Drudge,Limbaugh, etc.
I've noticed these forums have a Very young contingent who have full access to the site. When there isn't a political heading it's even more worrisome as to what they might be exposed to. It would be nice if their early influence wasn't so rhetorically over the top.

thats the beauty of being free. You don't have to like whats being said but we still have the right to our opinion just as you do yours.

She has every right to miss her son BUT the way she goes about it is disgusting. Do you think her son would be happy with the way she is "honoring" his memory? fighting against something he believed in? Thats not right in my opinion politically or not. She is a very selfish woman and I have NO political reason for feeling that way. She should step back and think about what her son (who IS the one that made the sacrifice) would want her to do. Not just raise h*ll because it will make her money.

I suppose you are saying that Lib radio and TV personalities HAVE manners? And those listed do not? I am sorry but give me a break...both sides sling mud equaly.

 

[joce]

If it makes her to feel better to do what she is then more power to her. I've have friends who have lost loved ones in the war and none of them have a problem with her. Not that they agree or disagree with her but they feel that pain she does and they question it everyday too.

 

[sparks19]

wE have lost people that we love in Iraq also. I just think its wrong to drag their memory through the mud. I mean it may make her feel better but I sure hope her son isn't looking down from heaven to see the mockery she is making of his name. I mean she was all for the war before and NOW its her mission to bring Bush down. I know she is greiving but she should honor her son.

But I do see what you are saying joce. Everyone grieves differently and maybe this is just her way of doing so. I just don't see why she demands all the publicity. Just makes this whole "Act" look a little shady to me

 

[joce]

It makes her feel like she is accomplishing though. thats what she needs to do to feel ehr sons life wasn't a waste. My frineds husband got a highway named after him and the town is doing a ton for her but she still feels like there is more she could do,I wish she could find something to make her feel whole again. The sad thing is nothing probally will but if being active in something makes them feel better I won't be the one to tell them to stop.

I agree with you 100% politics aside the woman is crazy....She should think about the family she has left. Doesn't she have another child?

I agree. I really do. I just disagree with her choice of redemption

Not saying anything of the sort. I was addressing someone who lists a homepage as the Drudge report and tags himself as an "evil" conservative. Something tells me if they were to adhere to anyone elses example it most certainly wouldn't involve anyone to the left.

Yes you do.I don't care for the manner. I'm asking for adults to be adult in the presence of minors. Your assumptions of how she is treating his memory and making a mockery of his name does one thing. It drags a dead soldiers mother through your mud and I bet if such things were possible, what he is really worried about is, how can he come to her aid.
I don't know of many sons who wouldn't.


I am not debating politics here, I do elsewhere. My sole reason for posting
is stated in this and the previous post.

Politics??? This thread has nothing to do with her politics. This has to do with her being a media "person who sells sex for a living".

HER sacrifice???? HERS??? PUH-LEASE.

She is dragging her Sons name through the mud in the name of HER agenda.

As for worriying about the young people... That is their parents job, not mine.

Agreed

Somehow I think that If this were a "left leaning" post you wouldn't be complaining about what the young people are learning from this.

I think people should stop using politics as an excuse for everything

Oh please...

THAT is your arguement??? You crybaby libs always amuse me.

Why do people always bitch about Drudge??? It is a website of LINKS. Of course I am always weary of his "howmgrown" stuff...

I put "evil" in "" for a reason ding dong. Sarcasm, humour... Something the left needs to learn.

Simple.... I WAS a soldier. I buried friends for this nation.... I give less than 1% about HER. I care about the soldier. She is using his sacrifice to push HER agenda. MEDIA "PERSON WHO SELLS SEX FOR A LIVING." PERIOD.

I am not debating politics here, I do elsewhere.

Nice dive....

Back to the main discussion here-

I dont like Samuel Alito- why? Because he's one of Bush's cronies thats why. Since Bush took office is 2000, he has *almost* single-handedly put this country to shame. As for Roe v. Wade - here's my stance on it-

If a woman is raped, molested, underage, or there is complications where the child will be born with serious defects, or there are complications in which the mothers or the childs life is endangered, then I can see where abortion should be an option. Outside those extreme cases - adoption should be considered if the mother feels that she is uncapable of caring for the child, if adoption isnt an option then the mother should face consequences of her actions if she turned a few too many tricks, or otherwise she is happily married.

Birth control should remain widely available as it is, and the same for contraceptives. Everyone needs to take responsibility for their actions.

And as for Iraq, Im not a big fan of the war given the reasons behind it, but I do however respect those who are fighting it. And lets not forget the soldiers on other battle fronts such as Afghanistan, the Asian gulf, and Pakistan, they deserve just as much as those in Iraq which is the "latest" and the most talked about.

And as for the way things are going- we better get our butts in gear because in the next 10-20 years, due to terrorists, we will likely be waging a war here in the states on the homefront, because, realize it or not, we are not as secure as we like to think even post 9-11. Look at the Gulf Coast - as of right now it is wide open.

My input for the night.
