Nothing scares the party of phony phamily values more than a real mother with her grief and anger

Matt Drudge and other bloggers on the Right (and their swift-boat shocktroops who made their presence known in the comments section of my first post on Cindy Sheehan) have been quick to point to an article from 2004 in which Ms Sheehan said not-unpleasant things about the President:

"It drew on quotes from a Sheehan interview published June 24, 2004, in The Reporter. Cindy Sheehan told reporter David Henson that she and husband debated before the meeting whether to ask pointed questions about the war and whether to vent their frustration over their son's sacrifice. Ultimately, they chose not to."

So, because the Sheehans chose not to say critical things to or about the President immediately after the shock of their son's death, she is being roundly criticized by the Right for speaking out now? In the New World Order® you are dismissed whether you were against the war from the beginning ( like Conyers, Rangel, Dean, Corzine, Kennedy, Byrd and millions of others), or whether you came to that view late like Kerry and Sheehan, after the revelations about missing WMDs, or phantom yellowcake uranium from Niger, or The Downing Street Memo, or the WHIGs, or the insider books of Paul O'Neill and Joseph Wilson and Richard Clarke, or a thousand other pieces of damning evidence, large and small.

"Sheehan, in a press release distributed Monday by the Institute for Public Accuracy, explained she was 'still in shock' during her 2004 meeting with the president.
'We had decided not to criticize the president then because during that meeting he assured us, 'This is not political.' And I believed him,' Sheehan wrote. 'Then, during the Republican National Convention, he exploited those meetings to justify what he was doing. It's now clear to me that what I had feared is true: Bush lied us into war, and Casey, more than 1,800 other Americans and thousands and thousands of Iraqis are dead because of what he did.'"

Remind me never to say anything uncritical about the current President. I don't want it held against me at a later date.

The people in power in this country have built their power base on the appeal to phony phamily values among those with whom they share no real economic interests. There is no more direct attack on that base of their power than a movement of mothers and families united in real grief, in real anger, in real opposition to their anti-family anti-environmental anti-human policies.

So, what does Rush Limbaugh tell you to say about that?
