Cindy Sheehan Makes Last Stand Against Nancy Pelosi

This may be Sheehan's last moment in the national spotlight.

Hey Plowboy

This so true. I thought, Plowboy, is out there to spread hate not the facts. His website represents no facts but only hate against Cindy Sheehan. Peopllike Pendelton should not be allowed to spread false and made up facts. He is disgusting and does not represents the American values. Infact by reading his comments, one can imagine if his loyalties are with a country other than United States. The man is nothing but a hate monger.

Cindy's realization

I believe (without a doubt) that your independent campaign office was sabotaged by the Pelosi thugs. It is important to realize who Pelosi is and who she represents. Anyone who does not discern the fakes and liars in our government today, is certainly at a great disadvantage. I hope you do not take the comments of 95% of these entries serious either. Many of these people are hate mongers and cannot bear to see a woman with the strength and conviction that you have and they could not even imagine, never mind muster. They could not allow themselves to know who are the saboteurs and conspirators (aside from themselves) among us in our life, much less yours. Then they would have to take responsibility for it. It is so much easier to hurt others for having the integrity that lacks from their leaders (much less themselves), to be further swallowed up in the pain they find themselves in.

I greatly admire Cindy for her inspirational unwavering commitment, passion and critical intellect while trying to convince and make a difference amongst the phony "two party" rabble. This kind of backstabbing is what happens when people have lost their way and have no real hope in anybody, much less themselves. Bush/Cheney and other cohorts are only the horrific symptom (economic shills) of what we are engulfed in, and it will probably take the unthinkable to make many citizens see the contributing factors of their overt cowardice and ignorance.

Enlightening events are happening every day --though often misreported or unreported through mainstream misinformation campaigns --with the un(der)employment and job loss, rampant murders, suicides, and genocides, relentless and historical injustices etc. going on nationally and internationally. Instead of common sense solutions-- mainstream news is becoming more and more pitiful. Where is the accountability?? Before I close I would like to say: You have my deepest heartfelt empathy for the loss of your son. He would be proud to know his mother's pursuit for change in a country that is nearing "too far gone"-- especially if more people like us don't stand up to what is happening.

Hey Plowboy

Plowboy's specific disinformation techniques are the deliberate spreading of false information to mislead the public, as to one's position or course of action. In politics, disinformation is disseminating false statements of innuendo based on the candidates possible vulnerabilities and it also includes the distortion of true information in such a way as to render rational conversation here useless.

Plowboy either has no life and is sadistically obsessed with Cindy, or a paid CIA agent to spread the disinformation and token words like "moonbat" "Crazy Cindy" "thief" "stealing campaign money, Post names of staff members, spin all news stories, and spam all comments on articles about Cindy. He posts all over the net, on every Cindy Sheehan articles' with the same comments attacking Cindy. The stalker even devoted a website against Cindy Sheehan...

Disinformation is false or inaccurate information that is spread deliberately. It may include the distribution of forged documents, manuscripts, and photographs, or propagation of malicious rumors and fabricated intelligence. Disinformation should not be confused with misinformation, which is merely false information spread unintentionally.

In espionage or military intelligence, disinformation is the deliberate spreading of false information to mislead an enemy as to one’s position or course of action. In politics, disinformation is the deliberate attempt to deflect voter support of an opponent, disseminating false statements of innuendo based on the candidates vulnerabilities as revealed by opposition research. In both cases, it also includes the distortion of true information in such a way as to render it useless.

“Plowboy," from cindysheehanwatch (dot) com either has no life and is sadistically obsessed with Cindy, or a paid CIA agent to spread the disinformation and token words like “moonbat” “Crazy Cindy” Post names of staff members, spin all news stories, and spam all comments on articles about Cindy. He posts all over the net,this forum, and on every Cindy Sheehan articles’ with the same comments attacking Cindy. What a sick loser on www.cindysheehanwatch.com.

Stabbed in the back

Cindy was played like a tool to get votes, and now that they are in, Cindy is being hung to dry. Typical backstabbers in politics at work

Sheehan campaign

I know people who lost children or spouses in the Viet Nam War, and grieve to this day, so I won't question Cindy Sheehan's sincerity. I agree that Nancy Pelosi certainly is "Speaker", because I hear her all the time, but she is not entitled to be called "Representative" because she doesn't reflect the ideals of her constituents. There must be a lot of Democrat straight ticket voting in SF.

BTW, what exactly has the Pelosi-Reid Congress done in the last two years?

Poor Cindy

Poor Cindy,

She was used by all the democratic politicions to get themselves elected, they used her in photo ops, took her endorsements, etc, but when she ran, what did they do for her ? nothing..oh well thats politics.......

Cindy

I was sorry to see that Pelosi maintained her position, she should have been voted out. The bay area voters that had a chance to change the direction in Wash DC for the rest of the country dropped the ball.

pelosi&cindy

Don't know which one is less odious,La Cindy or Diva Nancy SF deserve them.

election

As I do not live in California I do not have a vote there and do not understand her following. Her ratings as Speaker are in the single digits. She is the most partisan poinson voice in Washington. Why is she reelected?
