CINDY, IT WAS NOT THE OIL, STUPID
CINDY, IT WAS NOT THE OIL, STUPID
I wanted to start a new topic this week (Able Danger). However, Ms. Sheehan has once again struck a nerve with me. Until today, I did not know that Ms. Sheehan had an online diary. I am sure I could have received some good material from her entries.
I find it disgusting that Ms. Sheehan has overshadowed the heroic actions of her son; Army Spc. Casey Sheehan. Just in case you do not know the story of his death, I will fill you in. First off, Spc. Sheehan was basically a humvee mechanic. Secondly, he REENLISTED in the Army DURING the war knowing there was a chance he would go to Iraq. The most important part was his heroic actions. Spc. Sheehan volunteered to go into combat to aid troops that were outnumbered. He could have just ignored the request for volunteers and kept banging his wrench on the engine. However, he did not; he came to the aid of his fellow soldiers. He knew he was going into combat and he knew there was a risk he could be injured or killed, but he did it anyway.
Ms. Sheehan has once again fulfilled her duty as the circus monkey for the lunatic left. Her diary entry for today is ridiculous.Ms. Sheehan starts her entry off with a quote from our great president, George W. Bush.
"If Zarqawi and bin Laden gain control of Iraq, they would create a new training ground for future terrorist attacks," Bush said. "They'd seize oil fields to fund their ambitions. They could recruit more terrorists by claiming a historic victory over the United States and our coalition."(George Bush, August 30, 2005 in San Diego.)
I did not see or hear this quote, but I guarantee it was taken out of context. I am sure a statement about what could happen in Iraq should the United States pull out troops too soon preceded it.
“So it is official, Casey had his blood shed in Iraq for OIL. He died so we could pay over 3.00/gallon for gas. Like I suspected all along, my dear, sweet son: almost 1900 others; and tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis died so the oil fields wouldn't "fall into the hands of terrorists" and so George and his immoral band of greedy robber barons could become wealthier. Like I have said all along: how can these people sleep at night and how can they choke down their food knowing it is purchased off of the flesh and blood of others? We have found our "Noble Cause." And it is OIL. This man and his handlers need to be stopped.”
Ms. Sheehan was not listening again. Her heroic son, Casey, had his blood shed in Iraq to defeat terrorism and those that support terrorism. Zarqawi is a terrorist; he fought in Afghanistan and has ties to Bin Laden. Saddam paid the families of Palestinian suicide bombers.
There are many reasons why gas is over $3.00/gallon, Iraq is not one of them. Ms. Sheehan apparently does not understand supply and demand. China and India have an increased demand for oil. The OPEC countries have a quota of how many barrels of oil can be pumped. Therefore, they have a limited supply. This increases the price of oil. Another reason is that several states have different EPA guidelines for gasoline. The oil companies have to produce several types of gasoline instead of just one. When you are able to mass produce one type of product, with one type of raw material, you are able to sell it at a lower price. You also have the fact that democrats restrict the construction of new, efficient refineries and domestic drilling for oil. Hurricane Katrina has also caused the price to increase. Production was halted on the offshore oilrigs in the Gulf of Mexico. Many refineries were damaged, and if they were not damaged, there is no electricity to run the refinery. If the refineries are not functioning, all the oil in the world is not going to make a difference if you cannot turn it in to gasoline.
“Handlers”, Ms. Sheehan? Maybe you did not notice the arm of the lunatic left up the back of your shirt. You are a ventriloquist dummy. You say what they want you to say. I have questioned your ability to think for yourself.
“Well, George and I are leaving Crawford today. George is finished playing golf and telling his fables in San Diego , so he will be heading to Louisiana to see the devastation that his environmental policies and his killing policies have caused. Recovery would be easier and much quicker if almost ½ of the three states involved National Guard were not in Iraq. All of the National Guard's equipment is in Iraq also. Plus, with the 2 billion dollars a week that the private contractors are siphoning from our treasury, how are we going to pay for helping our own citizens in Louisiana , Mississippi, and Alabama? And, should I dare say "global warming?" and be branded as a "conspiracy theorist" on top of everything else the reich-wingers say about me.”
Hmmm, all the news networks and weather channels must be wrong. They repeatedly said it was a HURRICANE that caused the devastation in Louisiana, Alabama, & Mississippi. In Ms. Sheehan’s mind, she is right, so I guess everyone else was wrong. The meteorologists from The Weather Channel, National Weather Service, & Accuweather.com must be wrong too. They have repeatedly said that the increase in hurricanes is NOT because of the so-called “global warming”. They said it is because the hurricane cycle has changed and is similar to the hurricane cycle of the 1950’s.
The Lord took six days to create the world, so I guess it is feasible that New Orleans will not be rebuilt in the TWO days since the hurricane. After all of Ms. Sheehan’s vile comments about our president, she is trying to equate Pres. Bush with God. I like Pres. Bush, but I would not put him on the same level as God.
No, Ms. Sheehan, you are not a “conspiracy theorist”, you are a circus monkey.
Ms. Sheehan has become clever. She is now able to read passages from the liberal handbook. I think the term “reich-wingers” is in chapter 3, titled The nany-nany-boo-boo name calling suggestions. I am sure it is in there between Neo-Con and racist.
