Cindy Sheehad quits Democrat Party

tomder55 · May 29, 2007, 10:59 AM

She gave her formal resignation on the lefty blog site Daily Kos Daily Kos: "Good Riddance Attention Whore"

It is too long to post on this site but go to the link for complete text .

Tammy Bruce did a nice translation Tammy Bruce: The Pathetic Cindy Sheehan Quits, I Translate

1. Everyone hates me now, even the Dems ("I have endured a lot of smear and hatred since Casey was killed and especially since I became the so-called "Face" of the American anti-war movement...I have been further trashed on such "liberal blogs" as the Democratic Underground.")

2. The money has dried up. (" [W]hen I started to hold the Democratic Party to the same standards that I held the Republican Party, support for my cause started to erode...")

3. People stopped paying attention to me. ("I guess no one paid attention to me when I said that the issue of peace and people dying for no reason is not a matter of "right or left", but "right and wrong.")

4. Democrats are blind and stupid and just like Repubs because they don't agree with me, either. ("It amazes me that people who are sharp on the issues and can zero in like a laser beam on lies, misrepresentations, and political expediency when it comes to one party refuse to recognize it in their own party.")

5. America is evil. ("a fascist corporate wasteland...")

6. I wasted all my money and ignored my family to try to prove to myself I am not the attention whore that apparently I am. ("I have also reached the conclusion that if I am doing what I am doing because I am an "attention whore" then I really need to be committed.")

7. America is an ungrateful . ("I have invested everything I have into trying to bring peace with justice to a country that wants neither.")

8. I'm in debt and won't pay my bills because America is evil. ("my hospital bills from last summer (when I almost died) are in collection because I have used all my energy trying to stop this country from slaughtering innocent human beings.")

9. Americans are stupid and vapid and don't care. ("Casey died for a country which cares more about who will be the next American Idol than how many people will be killed in the next few months.")

10. Everyone is jealous of me because I get all the attention. ("This group won’t work with that group; he won’t attend an event if she is going to be there; and why does Cindy Sheehan get all the attention anyway?")

11. Everyone is doomed, so I'm getting out while I can. ("Our brave young men and women in Iraq have been abandoned there indefinitely by their cowardly leaders who move them around like pawns on a chessboard of destruction and the people of Iraq have been doomed to death and fates worse than death ...I am going to take whatever I have left and go home.")

12. I need money. ("Camp Casey has served its purpose. It’s for sale. Anyone want to buy five beautiful acres in Crawford , Texas ? I will consider any reasonable offer.")

13. America is evil. ("Good-bye America ...you are not the country that I love and I finally realized no matter how much I sacrifice...")

To that I'd like to add :
George Bush will never be impeached because if the Democrats dig too deeply, they may unearth a few skeletons in their own graves

YA THINK ????

This isn't a surrender ,it is a redeployment to California.

What a sad person. It took her a long time to realize that she was just another useful idiot.

So as I was saying, Cindy has disgraced her family and her friends. I haven't seen anyone stick to her side except for maybe the maggots feeding on her flesh just to be on camera and get attention! Just because you disagree doesn't mean we aren't interested in your views Karma. She is wrong wrong wrong, there is something that is in each and every one of us to tell us what is right and wrong, she doesn't have it!

NeedKarma · May 30, 2007, 11:05 AM

You because you say it's wrong doesn't make it so.

startover22 · May 30, 2007, 11:07 AM

Ok, Karma, is it right? Beating around the bush shows peoples true character. Let's just say what we mean, ok?

NeedKarma · May 30, 2007, 11:11 AM

She has her right to go about her business if she feels wronged and she does feel wronged. You love to put words into her mouth and try to label the situation black or white. Sounds like fundamentalist dogma. How is she affecting your life?

startover22 · May 30, 2007, 11:20 AM

You still haven't answered whether you think it is right or wrong. You just want you freedom of speech! By what people say and do and the choices they make, can affect a huge part of other peoples lives. My hole "man" part of the family has served, (grandpas, dads, brothers, except for one of them out of three) I honestly just think that you can definitely make a difference by going on TV because face it we all watch to see what will happen next. I know, I know we have a choice to turn it off, and I guess if more people did that then it might not be so bad. My point being why can't we use these recourses like the media to do better things than to slander our whole country? You wanna answer my question now? Is it right? I am only speaking my opinion, and I am NOT trying to change yours. I have noticed in the past that you quit posts when someone is not going to agree with you. You never know, you might want to stay around and give your view, I sure learned from it. Thanks, you have a lot of good things to say.

NeedKarma · May 30, 2007, 11:27 AM

My answer? I don't care what she does, it doesn't affect my world. I don't categorize everything as right or wrong; black or white. I have no hatred for her as you do.

As for you saying that I have a history of quitting posts when someone is not going to agree with me: I couldn't care less. I'm not here to make friends, I have a real world for that.

edit to add: sometimes I'm not onlione because I'm either a) playing with my kids b) having meals c) working d) doing stuff around the house e) hanging out with my wife f) anything else but being here 24/7

startover22 · May 30, 2007, 11:34 AM

Wow! No answere yet? Right or wrong? Are you kidding me you don't know if she is right or wrong? Yeah it is sad she lost her son. Really sad! She went way over board with her anger and we will only take it for so long. I get the feeling that if you were living in the United States, you might feel as though she hurt you too. I am proud to live here and if she isn't then she should leave and go to Canada where she can get a little more support from you. See you around.

startover22 · May 30, 2007, 11:36 AM

By the way I think you have made some really great friends, they are good people that you have met and talked with this whole time. Give me a break. "your real world" is right here! And honestly you have given some great advice and some good conversation and the people you meet along the way, are REAL!

NeedKarma · May 30, 2007, 11:42 AM

I guess that's just me - I've always made a distinction between anonymous internet discussion boards and the "live" people I interact with in my city.

startover22 · May 30, 2007, 11:46 AM

Well, have fun being you! Cause I don't have a problem with that, only you seem to! Of course there is a distinction, but we are still real people. Where is your "grey" now?

Just because it says I am online, doesn't mean I am sitting here the hole day. i am doing the same things, I just never take the time to log out. WOW you were trying to say what?
