Cindy Sheehan VS. Partisan Hacks
Reposting my comment here from one of my posts at Reason’s blog.
Why do people keep bringing up the fact that Cindy's son volunteered for military service? So did every other person that's serving today, so what? Is she blaming Bush directly for taking her son's life? NOPE. She wants to know why the fuck this asshole thought it was imperative to go into Iraq, why this war is justified.
She wants answers, and she isn't the only mother who feels this way. She should be praised for questioning this joke of a war, not condemned. Someone decides to get off their couch and go do something about it, and the woman gets bashed? For what? Pathetic.
When Tony Blair gets railed on CSPAN about the war, IN AN OPEN FORUM, from his people who are able to sit directly in the audience and ask him questions...it becomes clear we have NO ACCOUNTABILITY for our own politicians. It was refreshing to see people ask Tony Blair questions, and have him answer in a non-staged manner. Why the fuck don't we do this? Is Bush too good for his people? No, he's just a partisan hack just like the Democrats. They won't debate with Libertarians, with Greens, with the Constitution Party...because they'd be called to task on their stranglehold on our joke of a political system.You partisan hacks can go fuck yourselves.

Well said. I heard of a man recently saying that he hated Canadians for not supporting the war in Iraq and I think the only thing he has done to support the war is put up a sticker on his vehicle. It is time they volunteer to fight these wars and better yet pay all the taxes that fund it.
