Cindy Sheehan calls it quits

[Highwayman]

From the Daily Kos….

I have come to some heartbreaking conclusions this Memorial Day Morning. These are not spur of the moment reflections, but things I have been meditating on for about a year now. The conclusions that I have slowly and very reluctantly come to are very heartbreaking to me.

The first conclusion is that I was the darling of the so-called left as long as I limited my protests to George Bush and the Republican Party. Of course, I was slandered and libeled by the right as a "tool" of the Democratic Party. This label was to marginalize me and my message. How could a woman have an original thought, or be working outside of our "two-party" system?

However, when I started to hold the Democratic Party to the same standards that I held the Republican Party, support for my cause started to erode and the "left" started labeling me with the same slurs that the right used. I guess no one paid attention to me when I said that the issue of peace and people dying for no reason is not a matter of "right or left", but "right and wrong."....

I am going to take whatever I have left and go home.....

Daily Kos: State of the Nation

No kidding Cindy. They loved you when you were the useful idiot. You committed the ultimate sin when you bashed some of the heroes of the left. We tried to tell you….

I'll give her credit for admitting she was played.

Too bad for her that the rest of the world already knew it.

We knew she was being played a LONG time ago...this lady is a pathetic piece of work and has dishonored her son and every other service member that has died serving this great country. I hope she lives a long life and regrets what she has done every day....

She'll write a book about this and be fine

I bet she will sell 10's of that book...

Oprah will pick her up or sumthin - she won't go hungry!

Not until her leftist friends figure out how to pay for them with someone else’s money.

Maybe that will be the next Mike Moore Movie..

I read her book. It was the link Highwayman posted.

Too shallow for conservative fare and much too honest & deep for those other voterz.

The one thing I always thought was how was she during the time her son was alive? Did she, support the war then? I know it is a bad thing that we have lost so many and will lose more as this thing goes on. But what she has done is some thing I think her son rolled over in his grave.
