Sarah Palin: "Some days I wake up thinkin’ maybe I’m the conservative version of Cindy Sheehan."

In Her New Video, Sarah Palin Opposes Ground Troops in Iraq, Also Supports Ground Troops in Iraq

....................

Now, as a military mom, I am always loathe to see a deployment of our troops...

Trust me, I mean some days, okay, some days I wake up thinkin’ maybe I’m the conservative version of Cindy Sheehan. Once in a while I’ve thought that...

Under this commander-in-chief, Barack Obama, I really thought, you know, no, no boots on the ground...

But times are different today since this utter chaos has ensued, it’s been on President Obama’s watch...


I sincerely don’t want to see us have to go back to Iraq...

It’s imperative that we put a stop once and for all to ISIS. It must be the goal here...

They’re far, far too dangerous to leave unchecked...


Who could do this? If not God’s hand of protection that we ask for, the only force that can accomplish this, President Obama, is the United States military.

Aug 2014

On Sat Aug 16, 2014, 12:46 PM an alert was sent on the following post:

Why not? Cindy Sheehan has gone full-on kook as well.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=5396506

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Cindy Sheehan may have fallen into an extreme CT mindset- HOWEVER, she lost a son, protested Bush when it mattered, paid her dues. She doesn't deserve to be called a "kook" and a link to "american loons" just makes me want to puke.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Aug 16, 2014, 12:57 PM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Fair game.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Kook is as kook does and adverse life events, no matter how horrid, do not automatically confer perfection. The blog, which uses guilt by association, should be attacked in thread.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I followed the link. The wording could have been gentler still the alerter may have had more time to compose their words.
"may have fallen into an extreme CT mindset". Let this one go.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Tell the poster that. She may not be a kook, but calling her one is not a violation.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This is the most absurd alert I've ever seen. There is not a single thing wrong with the post.

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

WTF????? You mean your son who is probably out of the service by now since he either had to face jail or boot camp military mom. Like her kid would have to go to Iraq.

Cindy Sheehan did something for peace. No matter what Sarah Palin does for the rest of her life, she will never be like Cindy Sheehan.

Cindy Sheehan lost a son in an illegal military operation.

It's like when Lloyd Bentson told Dan Quayle during the 1998 debate, "You're no Jack Kennedy". Not even a close comparison of Cindy Sheehan with Sarah Palin.

scumbag. Cindy Sheehan was not a Grifter. She was a mother mourning her son who was killed in Iraq because of George Bush's illegal war and occupation.

Please STFU and go Cheney yourself lady blah blah!!
