In an effort to further bring shame and embarrassment to her son and family, Cindy Sheehan has announced her next publicity stunt:
Cindy Sheehan, the military mother who made her son’s death in Iraq a rallying point for the anti-war movement, plans to tie herself to the White House fence to protest the milestone of 2,000 U.S. military deaths in Iraq.
“I’m going to go to Washington, D.C. and I’m going to give a speech at the White House, and after I do, I’m going to tie myself to the fence and refuse to leave until they agree to bring our troops home,” Sheehan said in a telephone interview last week as the milestone approached.
“And I’ll probably get arrested, and when I get out, I’ll go back and do the same thing,” she said.
In what has become a textbook example of what the current anti-war protest movement has become, Ms. Sheehan will apparently continue to take meaningless actions in front of as many reporters as possible to generate publicity for herself. Of course, many left-wing anti-war groups will be attending protests at the White House to “commemorate” the death of the 2000th US soldier in Iraq.
The real tragedy here is that the only thing these “protests” actually do is assist the terrorists in Iraq by eroding US Military morale and emboldening the terrorists to take further action.
