You might not know it from [Cindy Sheehan's] televised interviews (where she seems well coached by the expensive media mavens retained by MoveOn.org), but the Internet is alive with her unscripted sayings, and they make quite a collection. To anyone's knowledge, none of the Jersey Girls or members of Peaceful Tomorrows has appeared on a program with Lynne Stewart, the convicted lawyer and friend to Islamic terrorists, and proclaimed her a personal heroine. None has ever said anything like this to a public gathering:

    "We have no constitution. We're the only country with no
checks and balances. We want our country back if we have
to impeach George Bush down to the person who picks up
the dog s--in Washington. Let George Bush send his two
little party animals to die in Iraq."
Few Everymoms have ever told newsmen:
    "America has been killing people on this continent since
it was started. This country is not worth dying for."...
SINCE THE FLORIDA RECOUNT, the left has been driven mad by their loathing for George W. Bush, which subsequent elections in 2002 and 2004 only intensified. And since 9/11, they have also been turned into grief-seeking missiles, and slipped into a confusion and squalor that boggle the mind.
    "The moral authority of parents who bury children killed
in Iraq is absolute," declares the New York Times's
Maureen Dowd.
What she means is the moral authority of those she finds useful. Does she accept the moral authority of Linda Ryan, who finds Sheehan disgraceful? Does she bow to the moral authority of the thousands of parents of the dead and the wounded who support the war and the president, and find her snideness disgusting? Can she begin to guess at what the phrase even means? ....
