Citing her son as inspiration, a tearful Cindy Sheehan announced her candidacy Thursday for the U.S. House of Representatives.
The anti-war activist is running as an independent against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who has represented San Francisco in Congress since 1987.
“The country is ripe for a change,” said Sheehan, who spoke at a podium with her son’s photograph attached to it. “It’s going to start right here and right now.”
Two points.
One, Mrs. Sheehan is not a peace actistist. Not because she is a moonbat, but rather because no person on the sane side of Jack Murtha or Mrs. Sheehan, professes to believe that withfrawal of United States forces from Iraq will result is a ceasation of hostities.
Rather, just the opposite, The accepted belief is that the withdrawal of US forces will result in massive genocide. Call genocide what you will, it is not peace.
Two, while Mrs. Sheehan gave birth to Casey Sheehan, she has no right to besmearch Specialist Sheehan’s tragic death to further her, not his, political positions. Specialists Sheehan died in service to coutry, defending freedom. She Sheehan loaths freedom and adores dictators.
Mrs. Sheehan, do not invoke the name of your dead son in order to kiss up to Hugo Chavez.
Hat Tip: Sister Toldjah.
