Subject: Fw: ABOUT CINDY SHEEHAN (BS)

What is most interesting to me is that the press gives this little bunch of
people who are protesting with Cindy so much air time without discussing
Cindy's background. This is a case of more press bias.

It has been pointed out on just a couple of media outlets that Cindy
divorced her first husband and left her son with him to be raised while she
became a political activist for the Democratic Party. She had very little
to do with her son in his growing years. She remarried. The 1st husband
remarried. The original father raised the son with his new wife. They
miss their son and mourn the loss of his life. They have stated that they
are very proud of their son and that they agree with the stance of America
in Iraq and on terror. They said that their son was eager to serve and to
go fight the terrorists in Iraq. He volunteered. How many news stations
carried their interview? Not many.

So the son dies in Iraq and then Cindy shows up to make a stink. She gets
an audience with President Bush. That was not enough. She goes to Crawford
and demands another audience. How many news stations carry the ongoing
saga of Cindy? Practically all of them.

Cindy didn't care about her son. She let another woman raise him. Cindy
doesn't care about the other soldiers in Iraq. Cindy cares about her
liberal, feminist agenda and about using the death of her son to lobby
against Republicans and Bush. And the press is helping her. Why?

Then two days ago, Cindy's 2nd husband filed for a divorce from Cindy.
Cindy sounds like a feminist opportunist who did not have the sense of
responsibility to even raise her own son. It looks like her 2nd husband is
fed up with Cindy. We middle Americans should be fed up with Cindy also.
We should be fed up with the press. They manipulate us into their "group
think" and into the responses that they want on their polls.
