The lady has a right to sound off all she wants. And I also believe the Iraq invasion was not only wrong, but stupid on top of it.
But she lost me when she let the Venezuelan Foreign Ministry pay her way to Caracas a few days ago, so she could badmouth Bush down there along with Hugo Chavez. To me, that's crossing the line.
Quite a few people who really care about the right to bear arms seem to forget that quite a few other rights came with that package, like freedom of assembly, freedom of expression and freedom of speech.
People who express their views, (popular or not,) aren't against this country. They are this country. They have the right to push their agendas just like you do.

True but you cant have people demonstrate inside congress while the Prez is delivering the SOTU address.
I dont think anyone should be allowed in there wearing a t-shirt of any kind. Its not respectful. Most judges wont hear a case from someone not dressed respectfully.
If she had been outside, I would come out totally in favor of her right to protests even though I don't agree with her.

What's Next? Al quaida Bringing her over to do a photo OP ? Reminds Me of a traitor named Jane Fonda......
Ya know that is one step the anti war crowd has been very careful not to take this time. As much as one may disprove of Bush people tend to have no tolerance for the Arab zealots.
Look we are progressing......

As long as she was in this country trying to convince other Americans to think the way she does, she was participating within our system, and exercising her rights as an American.
But letting the Venezuelan Foreign Ministry pick up the tab so she could travel to the World Social Forum meeting in Caracas and call Bush "the biggest terrorist in the world" is a little over the top. I wouldn't try to put her in jail for it, but I don't have to like it.
personally i dont know how you can equate her sons death with visiting oters in other anti american countries,clearly she's being exploited..I feel bad for her loss but not so bad for her arrest..i think she's a tool of the left.
Guess what folks , she and the anti-war crowd are a minority. Maybe 30 % believe we should drop everything and run for our lives. 10 X the number we lost in 9/11 we will lose the next time Bin Laden comes calling. Why do peaceniks feel that when a someone holds a loaded gun to your head you disarm him and then give him back the gun ? Afganistan ours, Iraq ours, Iran next ! No retreat no surrender !

True to the degree that WE ARE ONLY FREE BECAUSE AMERICANS FOUGHT AND DIED SO WE COULD BE FREE ! She has forgotten that! ...Her son fought and died for this country and that makes him a HERO to all of us, and she had the freedom of speech to forbid him to join the military since it is Voluntary Now. My opinion of her is that she Is TARNISHING the memory and the Sacrifice that he Gave for this Country, and that is just not what Being an AMERICAN is all about. She has the right to MOVE to Venezuela too, and I wish she would exercise that right!

Come to think of it , it should be about her son not her. She didn't die as a hero in a firefight . She didn't suffer the loneliness of military duty . This woman is wacked and should fall off the planet.
She knows Exactly What she is Doing, her equivelanct to Hanoi Jane is appropriate.
She Wants to be like Hanoi Jane.
It is Terribly sad and, just plain Pathetic What Cindy Sheehan is Doing.
It IS working, We ARE talking about her...........

As much as she nausiates me, she has the right to complain..and, be used by the libs. But, i still wish she would, at least, stay out of sight. What a manish looking woman ...no wonder hubby hit the bricks!
