CINDY SHEEHAN

She's the new darling of the anti-Bush Left.
Some say she's a grieving mom. 

Click a link and have a look.

Sincerity was something Cindy had hoped to find in the meeting. Shortly after Casey died, Bush sent the family a form letter expressing his condolences, and Cindy said she felt it was an impersonal gesture. "I now know he's sincere about wanting freedom for the Iraqis," Cindy said after their meeting. "I know he's sorry and feels some pain for our loss. And I know he's a man of faith."
--The Vacaville Reporter, her home town paper, 06/24/2004, one year before her Crawford squatting tour begins

One might speculate that her son’s death freed Cindy Sheehan to take a more prominent role in stating the convictions she long held. Her hatred of President George W. Bush apparently harkens back to well before her son ever set foot in Iraq. In “An Open Letter to President George Bush,” published in the Not In Our Name newsletter shortly after the 2004 presidential elections, she wrote: "George, in 2000 when you stole that election and the Democrats gave up, I gave up, too. I had the most ironic thought of my life then: 'Oh well, how much damage can he do in four years?'"
--Exposed in FrontPage Magazine, a must read.

The friends of Cindy Sheehan, at Power Line

For that story, you have to go to the Vacaville (Calif.) Reporter, her hometown paper. "I know now he's sincere about wanting freedom for the Iraqis," she told the paper in 2004. "I know he's sorry and feels the pain for our loss. And I know he's a man of faith."

Compare that to her Aug. 7 interview on CNN: "Every time we tried to talk about Casey and how much we missed him, he would change the subject. And he acted like it was a party."

The Times doesn't elaborate on Mrs. Sheehan's description of herself as "radicalized." Through her own words, unreported by either Time or the Times, she makes clear that she has embraced a grotesque ideology that goes far beyond garden-variety Angry Left paranoia--though it includes plenty of that, as National Review's Byron York reported last week.
-- Jame Taranto

LaShawn Barber calls the conservative bloggers' attention Cindy Sheehan "piling on". Almost every commenter disagrees.

It is very hard to feel sorry for Cindy Sheehan since she has alligned herself with the radical left. I do feel for her but it is getting increasingly difficult.

Corporate Fraud

They love to blame it on Bush, don't they?

The facts show though that the
corporate fraud that has decimated
the 401(k) accounts of "working families"
started during the Clinton Years.
Clintonites claimed that lying for personal
gain, even at the expense of others,
wasn't so bad. Too many corporate
executives ran with the notion.

Iraq: Progress In

 

THE IRAQ EFFECT By AMIR TAHERI
"Iraq is the only Arab country today where all political parties, from communist to conservative, operate freely. Visitors will be impressed by the openness of the political debate there, something not found anywhere else in the Arab world. Also, for the first time, Iraq has no political prisoners." 

Iraqis welcomed U.S. troops, local Marine says"When we have kids someday," Cristea said, "and they're learning about (Operation) Iraqi Freedom, I'll say 'Don't read that -- sit down and let me tell you what really happened' and I'll bring out all the notes."

 

Iraq: WMDs

 

 

Federation of American Scientists
On the basis of the last seven years' experience, the world's experts conclude that enough production components and data remain hidden and enough expertise has been retained or developed to enable Iraq to resume development and production of WMD. They believe Iraq maintains a small force of Scud-type missiles, a small stockpile of chemical and biological munitions, and the capability to quickly resurrect biological and chemical weapons production.

Federation of American Scientists
We cannot confirm whether Iraq succeeded in acquiring uranium ore and/or yellowcake from these sources. Reports suggest Iraq is shifting from domestic mining and milling of uranium to foreign acquisition.

The Guardian
Iraqi agents have been negotiating with criminal gangs in the Democratic Republic of Congo to trade Iraqi military weapons and training for high-grade minerals, possibly including uranium, according to evidence obtained by the Guardian.

Expatica
A representative of al-Qaeda bought enriched uranium capable of being used in a so-called dirty bomb from the Congolese opposition in 2000, according to sworn testimony quoted in a French newspaper Thursday (13 Nov 2003).

 

 

Iraq: Ties to Terrorism

 

 

National Review
OSAMA BIN LADEN and Saddam Hussein had an operational relationship from the early 1990s to 2003 that involved training in explosives and weapons of mass destruction, logistical support for terrorist attacks, al Qaeda training camps and safe haven in Iraq, and Iraqi financial support for al Qaeda--perhaps even for Mohamed Atta...

RantBurg
Likely due to the fact that we have in custody numerous al-Qaeda members, including apparently one of the top brass, saying that Sammy was helping them out with chem/bio warfare. We already saw that Abu Khabab and Co were more than ready to use that with the dead dogs and then there’s Zarqawi’s nastiness in Europe last year to consider. That makes the results of their working relationship thus far extremely troubling in of itself..

The New York Post
Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein gave terror lord Osama bin Laden's thugs financial and logistical support, offering al Qaeda money, training and haven for more than a decade, it was reported yesterday.

Janet Reno's Justice Department
"In addition, al Qaeda reached an understanding with the Government of Iraq that al Qaeda would not work against that government and that on particular projects, specifically including weapons development, al Qaeda would work cooperatively with the Government of Iraq," the indictment said.

The Weekly Standard
OSAMA BIN LADEN and Saddam Hussein had an operational relationship from the early 1990s to 2003 that involved training in explosives and weapons of mass destruction, logistical support for terrorist attacks, al Qaeda training camps and safe haven in Iraq, and Iraqi financial support for al Qaeda--perhaps even for Mohamed Atta--according to a top secret U.S. government memorandum obtained by THE WEEKLY STANDARD.

War In Iraq


Reforming Iraq a gamble, but it's got to start somewhere
No one knows what regional "reform" will look like down the road. The odds are not good. But they're better than the certainty of disaster that another couple of decades of Baathism, Wahhabism, Hamas and the Ayatollahs will bring. When the most prominent Saudi trust-fund baby is Osama bin Laden and the most famous middle-class Egyptian is Mohammed Atta and the only example of Arab pluralism is a Christian deputy prime minister of Iraq who enjoys gassing Kurds and lobbing Scuds at Israel as much as his Muslim masters do, one thing is sure: The status quo is not an option.

Son of Saddam
As Iraq's top Olympic official, Uday Hussein is accused of the torture and murder of athletes who fail to win.

Top Ten Myths About the War in Iraq
War brings forth strenuous efforts to report what is happening and why. It also brings forth many persistent myths. Here are ten of them. There are more, but you get the idea.

Mutual Incomprehension
In interviewing Dick Cheney on Meet the Press this Sunday, Tim Russert kept coming back to the question a lot of us, on both sides of the war issue, are asking: How on earth did the United States come to be so isolated?

Scientist hid nukes in Iraq 20 years ago
Gazi George is certain that Iraq is hiding weapons of mass destruction, because he used to be one of the people hiding them. Two decades ago, while he was employed by the Iraqi Atomic Energy Commission, George says he hid 39 rods of enriched uranium -- enough to build two nuclear bombs -- in a hastily converted swimming pool near the grounds of the Osirak nuclear power plants at Tuweitha.
