In the heart of the Cindy Sheehan protest

This is from "The Radio Equalizer blog" but it is so good I had to give you some of the highlights...

A conservative went to "Camp Casey" to see what it was all about...here are some of the highlights...

From satellite trucks and cell phones to wireless computer access, every modern convenience to enhance the “message” was found in this remote part of Texas. It was all there for the gathered left-wing, socialist and self-described marxist media representatives.

Most of Sheehan's protesters were either professional, working for Fenton Communications, Code Pink, or other groups. Many were longtime protesters, with radical activism dating to 1965, or earlier.

But when political topics did arise, no matter what the issue, they all responded the same way: it's America's fault.

One issue: peasant unrest in rural China, with the brutality shown by the government and their hired thugs. Their response: that America has mistreated its black citizens, or that gays are beaten here everyday.So the hate America” crowd really does exist, intellectually bulimic, having ingested all of this bile. As a show of steadfastness to their peace-and-love cause, they looked forward to regurgitating it.

During one conversation with Sheehan, I asked how much time she would actually be spending on the bus tour to Washington. I discovered she would be on it for just two days and away speechmaking during the rest of the time. I wondered if they were paid engagements.

She is relentless, professional, well-financed and always on message: all bad things are America's fault.

This will be her downfall. As more people discover what her real intentions are, to blame America, they'll dismiss her. She is SO far Left.

I suspect many Americans will feel betrayed. The whole circus, Sheehan depicting herself as just a grieving mom rather than a radical activist and the media willingly going along for the ride, is about to implode. It's a scam that will collapse under it's own weight.

Thanks for the link, Game. :)
