    msnbc and cnn, i saw them on tv when cindy sheehan was the hot story in the news, that was like months ago.

    I'll look it up. But I have to say, I couldn't care less what the polls say...I'll make my own mind up about her.

    You saying you respect and agree with her doesn't erase the fact you put her down for what you think she has done or who you think she has aligned herself with. That's all. I think for the most part you and I are in agreement.

    And as I re-read that; how can you have "lost all respect for her," but still have respect for her? :confused:

    I'm not addressing your opinion and right to have it. I'm addressing how you view people who disagree with you opinion in this case. I recall you not particularly caring for the way some have chose to conduct themselves in the religion threads...and here you are doing the same. Everyone has opinions and a right to express them...no need to state the obvious. I was just pointing out the irony.


    jim jones had one hell of a mission too. i don't recall any conflict with my views on how people conduct themselves. i gave my opinion and my reasons for my opinion. if someone would like to debate those issues the floor is theirs. all you've done is make personal attacks without addressing any of the issues i stated. this is completely out of topic.

    if that's what you read into it you need help. it is a reference to another "average joe" that got people to follow him. one fanatic is no different from another.
    i wonder why the other mothers who've lost children in iraq aren't jumping on her bandwagon.

    me needing help has nothing to do with you using an occams razor to compare sheehan with jim jones

    your kidding right? so an anti war activist is now a fanatic to be compared to crazy and dangerous fanatics from history. sorry dude, this crowd is a little to sharp for that turd to float

    What personal attacks? I pointed out your hypocrisy. And how you treat others differing opinions is always part of the debate topic.

    so what you're saying is that no one should run for office if they have an agenda.......looks like we're gonna have to get rid of everybody in the legislative and executive branches.....:rolleyes:

    What's wrong with someone making the effort, going out of their way, getting the exposure they need for their cause? Would you rather everyone just stay quiet, not make any noise and go completely unnoticed? That's ridiculous. How would your message ever be heard that way? What was wrong with her approach exactly? I really want to know.

    the fact remains that this is a common housewife mad about her son dying.
    I guess she's not so common because she actually protested. She has courage. She was protesting before she was in the press.

    It's common knowledge that the current administration skewed facts to convince US of cause for war. How many people think Saddam Hussein was involved in September 11th. When people call the police and fire departments on average 2% of all crimes are fraudulent.

    I thought you were *just* a farmer that compassionately fed grass to cows and the like because you are so concerned about the health of cows, right? You don't feed them chemically laden corn and soy, right? By the way what is "naturally raised" beef versus "organic" beef? I know the difference I just wondered if you knew that you are one sly marketer ;) What's your website about, then?

    If your son dies, and you just *accept* it then that's a reflection of your view of your son. On the flip side, you may think Cindy Sheehan thinks a lot like you. Either or, I hope your son remains safe.

    OK, so you use sheep references because you are around a lot of sheep. I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt here. Otherwise, it is kindof ironic, that you put *sheep* and *slaughter* in the same sentence. Again, you are one sly person ;)

    Ok, so what does it mean to act like a sheep?

    i think everyone should make an effort. i never said anyone shouldn't. and bozo can run for president if he wants. just because someone runs for president doesn't mean they're qualified. look at clinton.
    i think everyone with a true message should be heard. BUT; with such a big issue; a uniform front will do a lot more then splinter groups. i've been trying to inform people about the food they eat and i do everything i can to get the message out. but i've joined with others and we're making progress. so much progress that ted turner (the owner of the largest buffalo herd in the us); has taken notice and is changing his practices.

    there's a right way and a wrong way to get a message accross. splinter groups have no weight but if all the groups banded together; their voices would have to be heard. to pose a united front you must dismiss the extreemes and offer logical plans that can work. otherwise you're dismissed as a fanatic.
