coleader of Freerepublic calls cindy's actions misguided&hurt troop moral

[dajoki]

Cindy Sheehan, 48, of Vacaville, Calif., says she was surprised at the response.
''Before my son was killed, I used to think that one person could not make a difference,'' she said Wednesday under a tent where she has slept since Saturday. ''But one person that is surrounded and supported by millions of people can be heard.''
But Kristinn Taylor, co-leader of the Washington, D.C., chapter of FreeRepublic.com, which has held pro-troop rallies, said Sheehan's actions are misguided and hurt troop morale.
''She has a political agenda that goes way beyond her son's death in combat,'' Taylor said.
Although a few residents have complained about the protesters, no one has been arrested because the group has been on the public right-of-way, said Capt. Kenneth Vanek of the McLennan County Sheriff's Office.
On Saturday, two high-level Bush administration officials, the national security adviser and deputy White House chief of staff, talked to Sheehan for about 20 minutes.
Sheehan called the brief meeting ''pointless'' and still wants to talk to the president.

1. He would..can't have ANY attention

brought to what an asshole is hiding in the Crawford compound.

[Humor_In_Cuneiform]

2. Dissent is patriotism

Claiming it hurts troop morale is a classic neocon ploy.

Also in their repertoire:

"It hurts national security."
"You're for us or against us."

etc etc blah blah

:puke:

3. The very fact that she dares to say that about Cindy Sheehan...

A GOLD STAR MOTHER of a OIF soldier killed in action, is an outrage. Sure, we should all "Consider the Source"--as if someone like, say, Little Oral Annie had said it--but that's still NO EXCUSE to rag on a grieving mother of a son killed in Iraq.

Hope that little Freeper Hussy rots in Hell for a VERY LONG TIME!:grr:

B-)

16. Believe it or not, Kristinn is a self-described male

Probably explains a lot :shrug:

4. Do we care?

I mean, really now. Do we really give a shit what a deputy chief freeper creeper spews about her views??

Here's my opinion of Taylor's opinion:

[dajoki]

11. they are not only her views...

nothing is said by any of them without approval from the top.

[Vickers]

5. "FreeRepublic.com, which has held pro-troop rallies"

Please oh please oh please, somebody post that "rally" picture!!!

[ticapnews]

15. Photos from the rally:

It was quite a day, then they got into their cars and drive home...

[tabasco]

6. Fuck him/her, whatever it is.

I am a troop and I say GO CINDY !

Bush's corrupt leadership has hurt morale far more than anything else.

[dajoki]

12. yes it has n/t

[Career Prole]

7. "Cindy Sheehan's hurting our morale, Mom!"

"Ewe wouldn't pester the president if I got killed, would ewe, Mom?"

Mom: "Baaaaaaa!"

[dajoki]

8. the bitch...

to suggest that cindy has a political agenda is just downright irresponsible and coldhearted. all cindy wants is to save lives. that woman has no clue what cindy sheehan is going through.

[Somawas]

9. I wonder if the Freepers could produce one troop

to say that his or her morale was just tanked by a Gold Star Mom demanding to speak to the Chimp? I mean just one troop, on active duty and in Afghanistan or Iraq?

[dajoki]

10. best quote

"one person that is surrounded and supported by millions of people can be heard". how true that is, we need to take it to heart.

[gratuitous]

13. How would Taylor know what hurts troop morale?

It's not like that fat piece of crap is ever going to see combat or heard a shot fired in anger.

But isn't it nice the MSNBC finally noticed Cindy? Although why they saw fit to find out what a REMF Chickenhawk like Kristinn Taylor "thinks" is just ridiculous.

[bribri16]

14. Being in Iraq, killing innocent people hurts troop morale. n/t

[silverweb]

17. Kristinn Taylor is a guy.

I wanted to see what the nasty bitch looked liked, so I did an image search. Kristinn Taylor is a guy, a self-described "warlord". See the last photo at the bottom of the page:

19. thanks for letting us know. n/t

[GeorgeBushytail]

18. That's great! It means Cindy is succeeding.

[Mountainman]

20. Freepers don't know shit about troop morale. Very few of them ever

fought in a war. The troops want to survive their tour of duty and go home. Their morale is best served by sending them home as soon as possible because that gives them the best chance of survival. Take it from a former troop in war.

[dajoki]

21. my cousin just...

got sent back for his 2nd tour. his morale is really high:sarcasm:

[Mountainman]

22. You want to see some good troop morale? Have Bush say.

I agree with Cindy and I am bringing the troops home now. You will see some troop morale hitting the stratosphere then.

[dajoki]

23. yeah, but...

he doesn't even have the balls to look her in the eyes.

[opihimoimoi]

24. And just how is Cindy hurting troop moral??? She is trying to SAVE THEM

FROM HARM....

[snowbear]

25. Good Gawd they are butt freaking UGLY!!

Anyone ever share the photos of their annual Freep cruise? They showed them at the LOunge a couple times.



To be fair -- maybe they had taken them after they'd been scarfing down the all your can eat buffet for several days? :rofl:

There was a huge boat load of them - Freeper Banner hanging behind them - all of them were pasty white and plump. The woman sitting in the lawnchair with her roles of butt and leg plumpness coming out from the slats in the chair was more than we needed to see.

And I though to myself. Where are the people of color on this Freep cruise anyway? But I didn't see any :thumbsdown:

There were tons of them, and even though they were cruising, they looked so plump and pasty. I swear- if they don't pull themselves away from the all you can eat and get some exercise next time, one of them is going to =EXPLOID=

[dajoki]

26. or sink the boat LOL
