She's against the war. What's so complicated to understand? You say she's embracing lies. What do you call the whole WMD charade? People are dying by the truckloads and you guys are furious because this woman wants it to stop? And if you think this war isn't about oil.... well, that is an opinion. The oil is being pumped and it's being used to pay for the "reconstruction" via no-bid contracts to american companies. That is a fact. They killed her son. She’s against the war.

BTW, that above list of "left wing nut cases" (commonly referred to as "Moonbats" -- anyone on the pejorative right is a "Wingnut" heh.) should not, by any means, be considered even to scratch the surface. Not only are there many other outright lies, there are a number of lies-of-omission, instances where they do everything possible to obscure the truth about something, even (or particularly) when they know it to be false: For example, it's really interesting, considering the level of corruption involved (10s of BILLIONS!), and the people who were victimized (poor Iraqis), how the whole UN Oil-for-Food scam gets barely a mention once in a while, while Abu Ghirab, the "Gitmo Gulag" and Plamegate, each truly non-stories, can't disappear from the front pages.

She stands there, repudiating everything her son believed in, and claims she's "grieving". That's not grief, it's not even guilt (guilt would require she honor her son's beliefs by stating them even as she states her own) -- it's two-bit narcissism. She's got the limelight, and she's gonna use it no matter how poorly it reflects on those associated with her. Be interesting to see if one of her kids ever shows up to "support" her. Be a sure sign the loony gene got passed on, anyways. > what exactly are the lies being told by the “left wing nut cases” that you reference above? 1) "Bush lied, people died" 2) Saddam & Al-queda-terrorists: No links 3) "Downing Street Memo" 4) "Quagmire" For the first three, just parse through Little Green Footballs for links to refutations of their absurdities.

Another, that Bush went to war to make his buddies rich with oil. They seem opposite but I guess they didn't stop to see it before briefing her. Kyle,

Who the hell does she think she is, anyway? What makes HER so much more worthy of the President's attention than any of the other grieving family members? She's special because she hates him? WTF is that shit all about? What does she think he would do after meeting with her (AGAIN)? Pull the troops out of Iraq? Bring back Casey? Give her ANOTHER hug? It's all a BS stunt. And you know what? I read that Casey re-enlisted--IN IRAQ. Because he was a MAN, not a whiny bitch like his mother. To hell with her; any sympathy I had for her is gone. There are plenty of other grieving parents who have my sympathy, but they aren't scum who leech of their loved ones' dead bodies. Yep, I’ve had it with Miss Cindy Fifteen Minutes and her sycophants.
