“You know something, Billy? I don’t care if a human being is black, brown, white, yellow or pink, or if she’s Christian, Muslim, Jew, Buddhist, or pagan. I don’t care what flag a person salutes: if a human being is hungry, then it is up to another human being to feed him/her. George Bush needs to stop talking, admit the mistakes of his all around failed administration, pull our troops out of occupied New Orleans and Iraq, and excuse his self from power. The only way America will become more secure is if we have a new administration that cares about Americans even if they don’t fall into the top two percent of the wealthiest.” * | |

“‘Occupied New Orleans,’ huh? I like it. It’s got a very Kent State vibe too it. Although to be fair, somebody would have to be pretty fucking crazed to buy that a federal government engaged in cleaning up a layer of human waste is literally ‘occupying’ one of its own states.
“But then, I never believed for a second people would follow a barely literate, middle-aged Ken Kesey wannabe across the country on a bus tour, either. So what the hell do I know…?”* |

BECAUSE OF THE KING FU!
Your tiger-style kung fu is much stronger than my Zionist-style kung fu—which, let’s face it, getting into a “litigious position” was never much of a winner to begin with…
I thought you were parodying her, but she really said that! “Occupied New Orleans”?! Jesus wept.
“Technician Online”?
Kinda pretentious, since I’ve never heard of ‘em. They seem awfully concerned with listening politely to arrant nonsense, too. Not a technician’s POV, usually.
Oh- it’s NCSU’s student rag. That explains it.
BABY Jesus wept.
That statement really is unbelievable, but lets face it, when your political ideology is set up like a series of tropes/algebra equations in which the varibles can be filled with whatever is in the news at the moment…well that is what you get.
At least the press are getting painful shots.
I’m hungry. SOMEBODY FEED ME!!!!!!
Jeff:
Watching some of the Senate Judiciary Committee’s hearings on Judge Roberts, I was struck by Senator Kennedy’s short-hand usage in referring (in a collective sense) to certain minorities as black and brown people(s).
Now the racial minority known today as African American is also referred to as black, and formerly as colored or negros, but when did other ethnic groups adopt “brown” as some sort of short-hand. This strikes me as particularly invideous, as a “slice of the rainbow” skin tone of brown informs me of nothing–South American or South Asian, Mediterranean or Mexican.
Furthermore, it would surprise me if any Asian ethnic groups would accept, or refer to themselves as “yellow”, but I’m a pastey white guy, so what do I know.
My question regards Kennedy’s (or Sheehan’s, in this post) assumption–in the great game of identity politics–that “brown people” is even acceptable in politically correct terms.
I think she’s using Random Statement Generator, Inc.’s Red Tractor Web-Flinger, v2.0 to create her posts, because it certainly reads like a steam powered archiac pile of disjointed hippy left wing phrases slapped together any old way and launched without a care into the pitiless universe of blogs.
Either that or she needs to up her meds and change the bong water.
Word: together. “Together we can mock the left nearly 24/7.”
As long as that photog got some good pix of bloated, mangled corpses it was worth the shots.
Remember, Dems cannot be racist or politically incorrect, because They Careâ„¢.
And if a human being needs clothes, it is up to another human being to pick the cotton to put clothes on their back.
No, seriously, progressives < a href=”http://www.ww4report.com/node/1061″> picked up</a> that “occupied NO” stuff from a Sept. 9 article in the Pittsbrugh Post-Gazette.
( linked as “painful shots”, above)

Cindy: “One thing that truly troubled me about my visit to Louisiana was the level of the military presence there. <…> Sand bags were removed from private property to make machine gun nests.”
First we aren’t doing enough, then we’re apparently scaring Cindy by doing too much. Machine gun nests? This woman is so far removed from reality you’d need the full power of the Starship Enterprise funneled through the transporters to beam yourself there.
“What I saw today in Algiers lifted up my spirits, but what I also saw today in Algiers frightened me terribly.”
Yes. Bush has taken over Louisiana and Mississippi now he’ll order up further natural disasters so that he can impose a frightening military presence for the rest of the US. Then he’ll declare himself PRESIDENT and rule with an often ineffectual and largely symbolic iron fist for the next three years until his term is up. What horrors! Eek!
Oh come now, she was just signed to some speaking agency to do speaking engagements. Apparently she now demands to be paid by people if they want to hear her anti-Bush and anti-Semetic views.
BECAUSE OF THE HYPOCRISY, er, MONEY!
Tin Soldiers and FEMA’s coming . . .
The people in LA who were displaced have nice, if modest homes that are perfectly fine. I wonder why the government made them leave at great expense and uproot families who have been living in their communities for generations.
because their “modest homes” (how condescending) are full of poo, crawfish and waterlogged beignets?
Where do I send my donations for the “Cindy at DNC ‘08” fund?
She flew out to Carnegie Mellon here in Pittsburgh last Sunday, on 9/11. After 3 rambling speeches by local bimbos, the great SHEEHAN came to rally the crowd. Which was not much more than the size of a large Bingo party. (150 at most) What can I say? Her speech absolutely sucked. She said that Katrina and Iraq are directly related, but didn’t even try to explain what she meant. Heck, I’ve been to anarchist protests that had more eloquence (the anarchists didn’t show). She simply is no public speaker, or deep thinker, or anything other than an old woman with nothing better to do and a huge case of PMS. To be honest, I had expected much more. At the end, she simply broke into a chant of “Bring them home” that was somehow supposed to be a big finale. Then the “Raging Grannies” came on and sang “Children, listen to what we feel, surely war is not the answer” over and OVER again. The whole thing was pretty sad. For real entertainment, you have to go see the anarchists. Now that’s entertainment.
Careful with the “local bimbos” remark, Sean. After all, someone might be listening.
It appears that the influence of Leo Strauss brings forth a humanitarian disaster of unimaginable scale. So far, the 15-minute speech delivered last night by President Bush can be seen in the light of the apparent fabrications which lead to an oil war masquerading as an endless crusade against “terrorism.” It appears that the apparent demise of “anti-Americanism” as a respectable means of stifling recognition of American imperialism brings about the predatory imperialist aims outlined by the crypto-fascist Project for a New American Century. This suggests that a minority of warmongers and apologists brings forth the essential Western imperial interests. For one thing, Donald Rumsfeld’s worldview represents the crushing of internal dissent in order to propagate the flagrant lies promulgated by the political donor class.
All your Chomskybot are belong to us.
It’d be a cryin’ shame if everyone on The Bus contracted dysentery after their visit to the affected (infected?) areas.
Cryin’ shame.
This is simply a non-CITIZEN JOURNALIST’s way of demanding pie.
I am really, truly troubled at the military occupation of the San Diego shoreline. The oppressive presence of large navel ships and military aircraft must be removed at once Mr. Bush.
TW: Normal. Oh how I wish things could be normal, but then I must be evil if I think people should behave within the boundaries of some set of societal norms.
Wait a second, now it’s “Occupied New Orleans”? I thought Bush was to blame for not making it “Occupied New Orleans” a couple of days before the hurricane? Why if I was a cynic I would think these critics are basing the criticism not on any sort of logic or reason but rather on whatever happened to be going on at the time. I’m shocked, shocked!
Sean – Pittsburgh? Maybe that’s where she saw the “occupied NO” headline.
Bimbo in Japanese means poor boy. When I was a mere lad, a friend’s older brother who beat me up for beating up his younger brother, decided to make it a “hate crime” by calling me “poor boy” while pummeling me. It hurt more than the beating. Of course, I was a poor boy from a dysfunctional, multigenerational welfare family.
Am I a victim?
You only thought the left had jumped the shark a while back!
Jeff,
You are so Karl Rove
ZOG becomes…
…Zionist Occupied NOLA.
The brains of Micheal Moooreheads are liquifying at an alarming rate.
HOW DARE YOU MAKE FUN OF CINDY?
HER LITTLE BOY WAS STOLEN BY THE IMEPRIALIST CORPORATE NEOCON EMPIRE!!!
FEED JAKE!
hey, i need someone to feed me while rto’s in NO. hello? i had ice cream for dinner last night. i’ve already eaten all the leftovers. anyone?
BABY KILLER!
Ew, I clicked a link to Michael Moore’s page. Now my cursor smells like diarrhea.
TW: Europe. “Europe aisle of feces, Michael Moore.”
SarahW: Single-quotes are your friends, your boon companions, always there to help…
Not to nitpick Cindy, but shouldn’t it read: “It’s been a week since I ‘shat’ in a ditch in Crawford”?
Probably just a typo.
Bimbo bimbo bimbo!! I will not be silenced!
One month later and we’re up to this:
Man, oh Manischewitz
Mother Sheehan will surpass the SuperBowl’s tally by Spring.
Who does Cindy Sheehan think she is trying to get her sixteenth minute of fame?
Every time I hear “Camp Casey”, I think of Camp Snoopy. Without the political relevance, of course; Snoopy makes a much better orator than Mother Sheehan.
tw: hit. Don’t hit, CINDY!!!
Ah Algiers….
I remember Algiers back when Clinton was in power. Oh sure it was still poor and black/brown, but it was more like a “Land of Chocolate”.
Those people knew and still know what hard work was/is. They were a proud people with their majestically nappy afros and their huge cavernous nostrils.
They are human beings whether they have big fro-picks sticking out of their back pockets, or big hooked noses and doilies on their heads.
See the man with the slanty eyes, giant buck-teeth and big old-fashioned round glasses? He’s my brother. Let us live in peace.
Here at Camp Casey III, I’ve taken the liberty of setting up a mock cemetary for the 10,000+ dead of Occupied NO. I’ve adorned each symbolic cross with a quick spray of the most foul-smelling feces (having accidentally sipped a little of the Canal Street Coctkail).
Wake up Bush! My watery excrement represents the tears of so many of your American prisoners. Remove yourself from office immediately sir!
Bye for now,
Cindy
‘I was told that Pat Boone was on a conservative radio talk show in San Francisco (yes they do exist) with Melanie Morgan (who has a vendetta against me)’
OK, who is Melanie Morgan, and why does she have a vendetta against poor Mother Shithead?
Now can we question her patriotism?
A vendetta? Really?
Will she use the knife, do you think, a little up-close-and-personal work? Or will she go for the classic woman’s weapon – poison?
SB: came
BumperStickerist: I was thinking the same thing. Everywhere Cindy stops for more than 5 minutes becomes a new “Camp Casey the Nth”.
By next year we’ll have little signs all over the nation like they do for George Washington back East. Except they’ll say something like: “Cindy Sheehan slept/ate/shat/whatever here. This location now designated Camp Casey the 427th”.
quick insight into the way Mother Sheehan thinks, as such.
One of her concerns was over soldiers taking sandbags off of private property to make machine gun nests …. which had interlocking fields of fire, no doubt.
Quick question:
s
Did Mother Sheehan think the flood waters were coming back?
TW: work. She’s a real piece of work.
Actually I was thinking of something else. We’ll have to get that thing fixed. BDS in full bloom here, that’s for sure.
Of course, I guess there’s no one lately who has had more experience politicizing death than CINDY! so this seems like the right job for her.
Back in ‘98 I was hanging out with my hippie sister and her dirtball boyfriend in California. They were self-described communists and had access to some really phenomenal drugs.
I joined them in some sort of protest, and thought I was hallucinating when I saw these teenagers in black and red wearing masks, waving flags, and climbing trees around a police station. My Sister’s dirtball boyfriend pointed and said, “They’re anarchists. For people who do not believe in leadership, they are surprisingly organized.”
My point – I highly recommend getting baked and watching anarchists protest.
Wait. Scratch that, I highly recommend getting baked.
“…Camp Casey the 427thâ€Â.
That would be Camp Casey the CDXXVII, wouldn’t it, BLT?
Cindy Sheehan at Michaelmoore:
Perhaps the CITIZEN JOURNALIST should interview Melanie Morgan.
Sean C
Stop being such a twink.
I just wish these liberals would shut up. Quite frankly, it wasn’t until the so called occupation in New Orleans that the situation turned around.
Quite frankly, we here in Louisiana are proud to have them here. We are proud to have George W. Bush as our President, and thank GOD President Bush was here to do something about the incompetent local government.
Almost everybody down here sees it, including Democrats. Governor Blanco was grossly incompetent, why can’t the liberal bloggers just see that?
Wait a minute?
Kennedy has pulled “little brown people” over to his side along with the little black people? I got out my box of crayons from up on the shelf, here at the home, and I’m definitely brown, not close to white, but not black either. And Jooooos are pretty darned brown too. So maybe Kennedy is looking out for me and Jeff now and the whole debate on this blog may have to take a turn.
“Almost everybody down here sees it, including Democrats. Governor Blanco was grossly incompetent, why can’t the liberal bloggers just see that?”
They do see that, LC.
That’s why they’re so pissed. And shrill.
Wonder if we could convince them to all hold their breaths until Bush resigns? :-D
I’d leave that one alone, Cindy, if I were you.
Keep it up, Cindy, keep it up. More exposure. You can’t have too much exposure. Chase every sensible Democrat right out of the country. It’s working. Keep going. Work it, baby, work it! Right down the tube, that’s it. You go girl!
(Too bad you can’t bottle BDS. We could take over the world…)
Darleen Stop being such a twink.
Twink: An attractive, boyish-looking, young gay man. The stereotypical twink is 18-22, slender with little or no body hair, often blonde, dresses in club wear even at 10:00 AM, and is not particularly intelligent. A twink is the gay answer to the blonde bimbo cheerleader.
Hey, if you got it, flaunt it, baby.
SarahW: Single-quotes are your friends, your boon companions, always there to help…
Hey Mojo,
What?
As a supporter of our troops and a lover of minorities everywhere, I demand that the troops be brought home from New Orleans, that New Orleans be handed immediately back to the people of New Orleans, and that Bush stop meddling in affairs that don’t concern us.
NO BLOOD FOR JAMBALAYA!!!
Cindy is right. The President is incompetent. He’s got to be one of the lousiest city destroying Presidents ever. Now brewing up a Cat 5 hurricane was pretty impressive and steering it into a major city was superb, but for crissake, they’re reopening the French Quarter this weekend.
Now FDR was a city destroyer–Dresden, Hiroshima, Nagasaki.
And that puny little hole Chimpy blew in the 17th St. levee. Sheesh, Kerry could have managed that.
.
even though, it didn’t suffer any damage, who knows why they closed it in the first place.
good lord, and she calls other people uninformed. maybe she can explain to me why she’d want to stay in a place with no electricity or water/sewage services for a few weeks.
Post repeated for linkability:
Proggressives/moonbats picked up that occupied NO line from a Sept. 9 article in the the Pittsbrugh Post-Gazette.
(Linked as “painful shots” above.)
Sean reports on the Cindy Tour in Pittsburgh that weekend and I’m guessing somebody picked up a paper.
I have a question. In the Technicianonline story, why did they relate that the ‘worst insult’ was “Go to Chapel Hill!”?
U of NC at Chapel Hill=UC Berkeley East
Malik Rahim? Algiers? Mosque? I hope she’s not planning on flying anywhere with this guy…
Does anyone know how I can book the Mother Sheehan Circus in my town? I could use some free food and clothes, and I haven’t straightened my house up in a week or so. I could use some of those people who “know what hard work is”. I’m sure they must, as they were working so hard that they had to wait two weeks for “somebody” to come fetch that dead body off the road. Now THAT’S dedication.
I’d be careful around them Carl. Leave it to the experts
CHICKENHAWKS!
When are you coward Neocons going to sign-up to the Imperialist Military and invade New Orleans!!!
Why are you sending kids to die in the NOLA quagmire!
No blood for Gulf Coast Oil!!!!!
Some possible headlines if the MSM listened only to Mommy Cindy and similar nutcases:
So are all the lefties who wanted Bush to send troops to New Orleans but have not signed up to join our Armed Forces or personally went to New Orlenas to help now chicken hawks?
