#1 Sheehan has become a run of the mill attention whore.

#2 Too bad she's not a man. I'd like to catch her in the public toilet and piss on her shoes.

#3 Too bad she's not a man.

I have my doubts. I mean, have you looked at "her" lately?

#4 If it was 230 people holding up pro-American or patriotic signs, they wouldn't get any of this attention. It says more about the people that shine the light on the old hag than it does to her cause.

#5 I didn't watch the parade, and saw no mention of her in the evening news; did Cindy get any air time with her protest signs?

#6 They should've made her Queen and put her up on the Big Float. Just to fuck with her head...

#8 I don't think the protest movement really gets it. They are all about street theater and feeling good for sticking it to the man but they aren't getting anything done accept improving the approval ratings of things they oppose.

I don't believe the Vietnam marches were all the effective either, except for perhaps they influenced Walter Cronchite.

The Civil Rights marches worked because the people deep down don't support racism and the overreaction to the marchers struck a deep chord. That's just not happening with these fools and morons marching against Bush these days. Nobody can relate to them who doesn't already agree with them. They are sad.

I lol'd. It must be the cold weather. Mojo cranks it up a notch this time every year.

It wouldn't have taken much to influence 'Uncle Walt'.
