Has Cindy Sheehan gone too far in placing an impeachment of Bush ultimatum on Nancy Pelosi?

Question

I tend to be pretty left wing towards most politics, but I find this behavior deplorable. I am all for impeaching Bush and Cheney, but I think her behavior as of late is very egotistical.

I don't think it's fair to speak for her deceased son. We don't know what he stood for. Just because he served in the military does not mean that his beliefs went in line with the what you or anyone else believes.

Answer 1

In my humble opinion, Cindy Sheehan went too far the first time she referred to Islamic terrorists as "freedom fighters."

She isn't intelligent enough to know that this implies that her son's mission in Iraq was to steal the Iraqi people's freedom - and with their tactics of indiscriminate slaughter and murder of the innocent men and women who risked their lives to vote for an electoral democracy, the terrorists are fighting for their "freedom."

In closing, one can only assume that Cindy Sheehan is 3 or 4 Buds short of a six pack.

Answer 2

No. Sheehan can say whatever she wants. And yes, she's a selfish woman.

I'm not following your logic. Cindy Sheehan has no power. She is not an elected official. She could place an ultimatum for Pelosi to fly to the moon and it means absolutely nothing.

You said you're for impeaching Cheney and Bush. I have to come to the conclusion that you and Sheehan are one in the same. You both want something that's not going to happen, and you both have the same amount of power: One vote.

Answer 3

Yeah, I dunno how I feel about Ms. Sheehan trying to replace Pelosi. Nancy Pelosi has accomplished a LOT, she's the first female speaker of the house, and she's second in line to the Presidency for cryin' out loud! I agree that the war has to come to an end and soon, but it can't be tomorrow as I'm sure Ms. Sheehan would like. I'm also all for impeachment. Bush and Cheney have done nothing but exploit their positions to advance their agenda, to put into effect harmful policies that affect the vast majority of Americans, only to benefit the rich few with whom they happen to be friends. And they've abused their power over and over again if for no other reason than to squash dissent. They have used the politics of fear to remain in power and to keep the population in check. As an AMERICAN, not a liberal or democrat or conservative, or neocon or republican, but as an AMERICAN, I believe the time for impeachment is NOW! I ask those who call themselves the latter of those names to take a long hard look at their party and their policies and ask themselves: Are these policies in the BEST Interests of the AMERICAN people? Are you and is the COUNTRY better off now than we were six years ago? Unfortunately, I don't believe you can count "safety" or "feeling safe," due to it's relativity and the possibility that it could change in a moment. I'm asking ALL Republicans to take a look within and answer these questions HONESTLY. I think you'll surprise yourself when you reach an answer. I ask Democrats to do the same thing for the sake of putting the Country before politics. And I ask both sides not to dismiss the other right off the bat as righty or lefty extremists, but to listen openly to one another. Don't just find fault, find REMEDY!

Answer 4

i've got faith this could actually bypass deeper that Cindy vs Nancy. i does not be shocked if there are human beings of magnitude in the DNC who're encouraging Cindy to project her. look at it this type, many in the DNC headquarters, and a lot of of their extreme point donors, expected that as quickly as they have been given maximum persons in the abode, that Speaker Pelosi could relentlessly attack the President. as quickly as in the area Pelosi has been unwilling to persist with via on impeachment, subsidized down on the troop investment withholding, and has carried out no longer something to "get our troops abode". All of those have been conflict cries of the Dems in the process the marketing campaign. there are possibly many on the a techniques left, that have substantial pull in the DNC that are disenchanted at her. i've got faith that people who're offended together with her "moderating", could have provided help to and gotten Ms Sheehan to make this assertion. there is not any way that they could help her to run against an incumbent speaker, yet they figured that they used her as quickly as for the marketing campaign, why no longer use her to warn Pelosi.

Answer 5

Pelosi has said over and over that impeachment is off the table. Whether Sheehan likes it or not it isn't going to happen.

She threatens to run against Pelosi for Congress. I suspect Sheehan will be slaughtered in that election.

Answer 6

Nope. As the left has been screeching ad nauseum, Cindy's Sheehan's sacrifice of her only begotten son gives her Absolutely Moral Authority Over All Living Things. Neither you nor Nancy Pelosi have any right to question her behavior or her motives. If she has any compassion at all, Nancy will obey Mother Sheehan and step down now.

Answer 7

I think it's poetic justice. She was all for Cindy when she was Bush bashing. Now that the shoe is on the other foot, I say, bring it on! Live by political exploitation, die by political exploitation. Machiavelli must be laughing his tuchis off way down there in that 7th circle of hell. Hope he's saving a seat for Polosi and Sheehan!

Answer 8

Absolutely yes, now I realize that Sheehan is a megalomaniac who wishes to become #3 in the succession to the Presidency such that she can remove the troops from Iraq if and when she ever becomes President.

Always remember that Hitler was elected democratically by the people.

Answer 9

She went way over the top years ago. She should be ashamed of herself for using the death of her brave son to advance her antiwar position.
That being said, I actually love this little spat going on with her and pelosi. I love it when libs get into fights with each other. Pure entertainment.

Answer 10

Given the intense hatred from libs towards Bush, he would already have been impeached if there was any crime committed. In my opinion, Sheehan is a typical liberal.
