We all know that sooner or later, our troops will begin pulling out of Iraq. We are not there as occupiers. We have known for over a year that the plan is to begin pulling some troops out in 2006, and get the rest out when the Iraqi’s can handle it on their own. But, the insanity of the Dems recently, ie, the closed door Senate session that Dingy Harry called for, Murtha, etc, is just a cute way to make it seem as if the Dems have forced Bush to start pulling troops out. Now, so Cindy wants a piece of the action herself
CRAWFORD, Texas – The fallen soldier’s mother whose August vigil near President Bush’s ranch reinvigorated the anti-war movement returned to Texas to resume her protest Thursday as the president celebrated Thanksgiving a few miles away.
"I feel happy to be back here with all my friends … but I’m heartbroken that we have to be here again," Cindy Sheehan said as she arrived at an airport in nearby Waco. "We will keep pressing and we won’t give up until our troops are brought home."
And there you have it. The insane face of the anti-war Bush crowd has found a way to take some credit for the eventual pullout, even though said pullout will not be the cut and run that the Surrender Monkey’s want.
And, "reinvigorated the anti-war movement?" Cindy has been virtually out of the news, and off the Demaloons radar, since her smiling arrest in front of the White House.
How did the last 2 paragraphs of the story get by the AP anti-American censors?
A few miles away, a Bush supporter set up camp with a tent and signs saying "A Noble Cause" showing pictures of smiling Iraqi children.
"Perhaps the troops, they feel like they don’t get gratitude or a thank-you, and I’ll come and say ‘Thank you’ in my own way because it’s Thanksgiving," said Akef Tayem, who lives in Dallas and has relatives in Jordan.
That was very nice, Mr. Tayem. Thank you!
