I have not heard much from the momma moonbat in a while but her name was brought up in a conversation about Ann Coulter’s book and the idea that the left parades “victims” out in front and decries any attack on them. I agree with Ann on the point because it is so very true. Every time the left wants to make some kind of point they parade someone who has been affected and then if there is any criticism the MSM is all over talking about how cruel and insensitive the criticiser is.
This was true with Cindy Sheehan. She lost a son in Iraq (in the Army he volunteered to join on a mission he volunteered to go on) in case you did not notice. She was out parading around discussing how George Bush killed her son and every time someone said something about her, it was “How can they attack that woman who lost her son? If you have not lost a son, you do not know what it is like.” There is a bit of merit to that but I do not have to stab my self with a knife to know that it will hurt. I do not have to lose a child to know that it is a painful experience, and one for which I have empathy.
Sheehan though, went around the country and blamed George Bush for her son’s death. It was Bush who started the illegal (her words) war that took her son’s life. She has done nothing but blame George Bush for the entire incident and she has been so disgraceful about it that her family has practically disowned her. I have a different take on the whole situation.
CINDY SHEEHAN WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEATH OF HER SON. SHE KILLED HER OWN SON! Let us look at facts. Let us assume for a minute that she is right about the war being illegal. Bush did not draft her son. Bush did not compel her son to join. Despite this, Sheehan blames him because her son joined and was killed. Well, Cindy allowed him to join the service. She was there with him every day (Bush never met him) and she was an influence in his life. She loved him so much and yet she allowed him to join the service and go to a war she believes is illegal. Cindy Sheehan has failed miserably as a mother because she was not able to protect her son. There is one thing that parents are supposed to do, protect their children. Cindy Sheehan was not able to do that one thing and her son died because of her neglect. Now Cindy, like victims of Hurricane Katrina, wants to blame the government because she failed to be responsible.
You see, in typical liberal fashion, Cindy Sheehan expected that the government would take care of the things that she was unable or unwilling to do. During Katrina, people did not prepare and did not ensure their own safety so when the hurricane hit they were in a bad way. The only thing to do was blame the federal government because they were not there to be a savior. Cindy Sheehan has that same attitude. What she is really saying is; “Mr. President, I was a terrible mother to my son and failed in my basic duty to protect him. Because I was a poor mother my son was killed. I blame you for that because you did not protect my son from me.”
The unfortunate thing is that many a liberal has jumped aboard the C train and taken up the cause by blaming Bush. Many of the Hollywood elites and the so called leaders like Jesse Jackson have come to momma moonbat’s side. That is because, they too, expect the government to be there to protect us from our own failures. Cindy Sheehan is one such failure. She failed as a mother and that is the worst failure there is.
