Proper attire, with a simple 'Support Our Troops' pin, (along with a 'Kerry/Edwards' badge perhaps)would have been more effective for Ms. Sheehan. This was the State of the Union address, after all. Regardless of political feelings, a certain amount of decorum is required.
I feel really bad for this woman. She lost her son in the war. A war she is opposed to. She has the right to protest. She did not deserve the attacks that had been levelled against her months ago. Then again, McCain was made to look as if he'd fathered an illegitimate black girl during the 2000 campaign by the Bush crew (still wish he would have been the Republican candidate).
That being said, I think she needs some counseling and better guidance, because her recent outlandish statements are way over the edge.
Ray Nagin, Harry Belafonte, Pat Robertson, and Cindy Sheehan......they've all lost 'it' (or never had 'it').

It's the was that she uses her sons death as a rally point. He did NOT die so that she could protest.[/QUOTE]
yes he did...the whole argument for war in iraq, is war on terror...and that is based on the ousted ruling regime being tyrannical, and being against free-speech. her son's death permits and extends the right to free-speech to the rest of the world...and she is exercising her inalienable right to say what she thinks[/QUOTE]
Well, I do agree that she should be able to say what she thinks. That is one of the basic freedoms that come along with living in the States. I think she is using her son's death in the wrong way. Perhaps she is using her family's loss for her own personal gain.[/QUOTE]
doesn't matter what you think. no-one can remove her right to say what she thnks

I never did say that she should stop protesting. I was exercising my right to voice my own opinion. At this point, the horse is just about dead. Time to take a step back and relax.

How about, "I think", or "in my opinion"...?
There's a perfect example of the average stuck-up republican American thinking his country is better than the rest. Reality check: Americans are the only people who may agree with you.

There's no such thing as the greatest country in the world.
All nations around the world are fucked up in some way or another, some more than others.
It's like saying... THE MOST TALENTED RAPPER
