St. Cindy on VTech: What about sociopathic serial killer George Bush?
posted at 2:17 pm on April 24, 2007 by Allahpundit
My favorite part is where she warns us that all human life is precious immediately after demanding withdrawal from Iraq so that the carnage will end “for our brothers and sisters.” Either she’s awfully naive about the consequences of a pullout or else I guess Iraqis somehow missed sign-up day for the brotherhood of man. It’s also not clear where she wants to take the analogy. Is it another in the long line of leftist Bush-assassination fantasies, per the millions of people who’ve been wishing this week they were there in the classroom with their weapon cocked when Cho opened the door? Or does she simply mean someone should have intervened when Bush was younger to get him the “help” he needs? Bad news, if so — she’s got some famously funny ideas about what constitutes “help.”
From accounts of George Bush’ early life (Bush on the Couch, Dr. Justin Frank) from thinking it was funny to put firecrackers in the anus’ of frogs and blowing them up to burning pledges to his fraternity with cigarettes and his alcohol and cocaine abuse…we, as a nation, should have seen his mass murderous tendencies coming from leagues away. Instead we rolled over and played apathetic when he was unconstitutionally selected by the Supreme Court as President in 2000. He gleefully made fun of people he was about to execute as governor of Texas , and he and Al (“I don’t recall”) Gonzales never had an ounce of compassion for a single soul condemned to death…
We, as a nation, were rightly shocked, saddened and repulsed by the murders of 33 students and faculty at Virginia Tech. My heart grieves with the friends and families of the fallen. I know what a ghastly path they have been forced to step off on by a maniac who unthinkably had easy access to weapons of limited (but infinite) destruction.
Another sociopathic killer with inexplicable and unconstrained access to the planet’s most deadly arsenal, George Bush, has condemned 100 times 33 of our nation’s bravest and brightest to death and most people walk around indifferent to the fact that our White House is inhabited by a serial killer of historic proportions.
This is cute, too. Betcha didn’t know that Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton traveled alone in unarmored convertibles:
I was in DC this past week when George’s bullet proof entourage (he always travels like he is outside the Green Zone in Iraq—how sad to have so many enemies you have to be put in a prison of your own making) hurried down to Blacksburg to participate in memorial services for the slain—yet, he has not attended one service for one of his murder victims in Iraq.
Elsewhere in VTech news, Slate offers helpful tips on what to do if you ever find yourself in a VTech situation and lack the natural combat instinct and steely nerve of Mark Steyn or John Derbyshire. Desk-throwing seems like a particularly good idea. As for that stone memorial that someone created for Cho on the VTech campus, someone else decided to correct the situation with a little direct action.
Here’s a photo of that banner about VTech that’s hanging outside Baghdad Technology University that I posted about yesterday. (Thanks to Bill Amos.) Oddly enough, the students there seem to think Al Qaeda, not Bush, is the proper analog for Cho Seung-Hui. But then, they lack Mother Sheehan’s absolute moral authority.

Imagine for a moment if Dennis Hasert or Trent Lott had sat down and had a photo op with someone who had called Clinton “a serial killer.”
Remember this pic?

I vote for naive
Kini on April 24, 2007 at 2:28 PM
I’m voting for completely delusional.
It’s only a matter of time before she does something really dumb like setting herself on fire or bowing herself up because protests and uterus burials aren’t making the American public rise up to declare her Queen of the USA. All I hope is that she doesn’t hurt any innocent bystanders when she finally does pull a Cho.
MoxArgon on April 24, 2007 at 2:37 PM
So which is it, limited or infinite?
James on April 24, 2007 at 2:38 PM
I’m guessing Rosie bought the other copy of Bush on the Couch by the esteemed Dr. Justin Frank and keeps it on the shelf next to her well-worn copy of Physical Metallurgy Principles.
“Hey, TV guys! Insane moonbat over here! Hey! Hello!”
saint kansas on April 24, 2007 at 2:41 PM
Nuance, James. Nuance.
Pablo on April 24, 2007 at 2:42 PM
This woman is sick. It’s not even funny anymore – she’s quite obviously disturbed.
Enrique on April 24, 2007 at 2:45 PM
I give Ms. Sheehan a pass. Sorry, but I find it hard to be mercilous to a parent who has lost a child. I can’t imagine how far out in left field I would go if one of my children dies or is killed. Cindy should be gently ignored.
Those that use her as a shield to spew their vitrol are the real villians.
Rode Werk on April 24, 2007 at 2:45 PM
I think Rode Werk hit the nail on the head. Well said.
KennyB on April 24, 2007 at 2:47 PM
Hmm, bookends.

“…most people walk around indifferent to the fact that our White House is inhabited by a serial killer of historic proportions.”
This woman is insane, not naive.
There is no “nice” way to put it, either. She is a psychotic suffering from grandiose delusions, in my non-medical, non-expert, opinion. Given her comment (“Another sociopathic killer with inexplicable and unconstrained access to the planet’s most deadly arsenal”), she’s another Squeaky Fromme in the making.
She openly admits that it is her mission to remove George W. Bush from the presidency. At some point, if she ever had the opportunity, I have no doubt that she’d try to emulate Fromme and attempt to assassinate the President.
I hope the Secret Service is keepting track of her movements and will ensure that she never again gets within pistol range of the President.
georgej on April 24, 2007 at 2:54 PM
Kinda like one hand clapping.
I’m pretty sure there were 32 murders at Vtech not 33.
jdpaz on April 24, 2007 at 2:56 PM
Rode Werk wrote: “but I find it hard to be mercilous to a parent who has lost a child.”
I don’t.
Given that some 3300 OTHER families have lost children, parents, brothers, sisters, uncles or aunts in Iraq, and are NOT going around calling the President a “serial killer of historic proportions” or blaming the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan on the Jews.
She is simply not exporessing opposition to the war, and she can no longer hide behind here “absolute moral authority” simply because her son was KIA in a war she opposed.
She is clearly “prepping” herself, and erecting in her mind a self-justification for taking direct action against the President.
She is psychotic, and she is dangerous.
georgej on April 24, 2007 at 3:01 PM
I don’t. Everyone who has died in combat had parents, and all of them have managed to conduct themselves with some degree of dignity and decorum.
You are a better person than I am (and I don’t say that sarcastically).
Well said. But c’mon… dragging a photo crew to the cemetary for a spread in Vanity Fair? I just can’t…get to where you are from there.
saint kansas on April 24, 2007 at 3:01 PM
I don’t find it merciless to point out simple facts. And I know several people, including in my own family, who have lost children and adult sons and daughters – it did not substantially change their character.
Insanity is not a symptom of grief, and those who invest her with “absolute moral authority” while denying it to other parents who happen to support the war that took the lives of their sons and daughters are morally bankrupt. (I REFUSE to call them children, because the military does not allow children to volunteer.)
Laura on April 24, 2007 at 3:09 PM
That she is being used by the hardcore left is a given.
That she is an embarrassment to Democrats is also a given.
But…
What happens when the adulation fades? What happens when the press no longer listens to her? What happens when fools and traitors like Moore tire of her?
We have here another Cho here. And when she has ratcheted up the rhetoric so high, and Bush is NOT “taken down” or removed from ofice, what do you think will happen next?
People didn’t take Cho seriously enough. Let’s not make the same mistake with Sheehan.
georgej on April 24, 2007 at 3:10 PM
She mustn’t consider Iraqi’s real ‘people’.
Just like Kennedy, Kerry, and Cronkite didn’t consider the Vietnamese and Cambodians real ‘people’ when we defunded them.
CrazyFool on April 24, 2007 at 3:17 PM
You who are giving her a pass obviously haven’t heard the virtually her entire family has shunned her. The woman is insane and those closest to her can see it. The press needs to stop giving her attention because only then will she get the psychiatric helps she needs.
csdeven on April 24, 2007 at 3:30 PM
csdeven: “The press needs to stop giving her attention because only then will she get the psychiatric helps she needs.”
She won’t seek it out on her own. She’ll have to be committed as it appears the delusion is quite deep.
What I am afraid of is that her verbal violence will turn physical when the adulation wanes. Remember, she is on a “MISSION.” How will she act out if she no longer has a soapbox?
georgej on April 24, 2007 at 3:36 PM
That about covers it. I really don’t know why any of us – on the left or the right – give this woman publicity any more. There’s nothing about her to discuss. She’s a loon.
She’s an embarrassment to the left (or she should be, at least). Scratch that: she’s an embarrassment to all Americans, regardless of politics. For God’s sake, the woman figureativelly and literally embraces REAL dictators.\
She’s a loathsome creature. The only good thing about her is that I suspect she costs the Democrats votes.
I’d really like to make a long, long distance call and ask her heroic son what he thinks of her.
She just makes me feel sorry for him, and his memory. He deserved a lot better.
Professor Blather on April 24, 2007 at 3:37 PM
A very, very, very good point.
Find the puppetmasters pulling her strings. Those are the real enemies. And yes, I mean enemies. Of America, of decency.
Professor Blather on April 24, 2007 at 3:40 PM
Which once again brings up the question: what the holy Hell are these people going to do after January 20, 2009?
Do they have a new Hitler boogeyman picked out yet?
Professor Blather on April 24, 2007 at 3:42 PM
She would consider the death of Cho as a murder by the state for not giving him treatment.
right2bright on April 24, 2007 at 3:42 PM
I wish I could give her a pass now (I did for the first few months). She’s one sick woman. I also wonder what she’s going to do on January 20, 2009. She’s an absolute disgrace. Unfortunately, we know 23 people who have been killed so far and not one of their family members have descended into this hell of her own making. There are a few who no longer agree with the war but the also think she’s a disgrace and have said they would never march, spit at or deal with any of the ho’s from Code Pinko as it would be a denegration of their son.
One day she’ll be wandering around like Joan Kennedy (about a year or so ago) intoxicated, confused and trying to come to terms with being a non entity. The kook libs will not look after their fair haired, uterus burying, Saint after a while. I think it’s sad but it’s of her own choosing. BTW, she is certainly not the poster child for hunger fasts. It looked to me like she gained 30 pounds or more.
I know, once again I’m being a mean person.
Catie96706 on April 24, 2007 at 3:56 PM
1. 32 murders, 28 more attempted murders, and 1 suicide.
2. To hell with Sheehan; let her burn there.
3. I’m still trying to get my mind around these misguided twits creating a memorial to this murdering POS Cho at V Tech. Glad to see the rock is gone. Hopefully they’ll set it up in the square and let students beat it into gravel with a 16 pound sledge hammer before they go piss all over the flowers and notes that have been left for him.
Jaibones on April 24, 2007 at 4:01 PM
That “absolute moral authority” line is one of the most useful pieces of mush to emerge from the keyboard of Maureen Dowd.
Oh, the mileage we’ve gotten from that phrase.
Slublog on April 24, 2007 at 4:01 PM
…absolute moral bankrupcy.
I can understand some grieving, but this woman is dishonoring herself by trying to dishonor the memory of her son and our other fallen heroes.
hillbillyjim on April 24, 2007 at 4:11 PM
I am at a loss for words…what a disgusting moron…may she sleep with the fleas of a thousand camels…

Cindy at Starbucks:
Barista: Ma’am, were out of the chocolate cupcakes.
Cindy: Oh, just like I am out of patience living in a country run by a mass murdering psychopath!
Cindy at the movies:
Patron: Ma’am would you please stop talking during the movie
Cindy: Oh, so you want to silence me, just like that mass-murdering psychopath who runs our country!
Cindy at a restaurant:
Waiter: Ma’am I am not sure today is a good day to choose the veal.
Cindy: Oh, just like it was a terrible day when we didn’t get to consitutionally choose our President and instead we have this mass-murdering psychopath running the country!
I bet she’s a ball at parties……..
Mallard T. Drake on April 24, 2007 at 4:33 PM
I’d like to think that if I was a student at VT, I would go drink a six-pack and then go and water Cho’s “memorial.”
Mallard T. Drake on April 24, 2007 at 4:35 PM
I’m so sick and tired of Cindy, someone please make the hurting go away……………

Isn’t her 15 minutes up yet?

This lady went off the deep end along time ago. How sad to watch her continually make an ass of herself in fron of the entire world. I feel for her loss as I do any family that has lost a loved one in time of war, but, give it a rest nutbag.
Anyone know how that hunger strike is going? She looks a bit plump for someone avoiding food.
RobG on April 24, 2007 at 5:32 PM
Wait a minute. Wasn’t Cindy quoted during a speech that if she had the opportunity to go back in time and smother George Bush in the cradle, she would have?
She is using her son, who was honorable, to leverage herself into the public eye. She does not deserve “a pass.” Her son plainly did not agree with the positions she holds, and she knows that full well. The least she could do is honor him and his beliefs by not using him as a prop.
If she went out and made a political career wihout using Casey, then fair’s fair. But he’s integral to her shtick. She’s manipulative. Ugly on many levels.
naliaka on April 24, 2007 at 5:43 PM
She’s drunk on celebrity. Her fifteen minutes should be over already.
CitizenJim on April 24, 2007 at 5:49 PM
Cindy Sheehan:
John from WuzzaDem on April 24, 2007 at 6:52 PM
No, she’s not. They will prop her up and make her a figurehead for as long as they’re able. I honestly thought when she gave Hugo C., a self professed enemy of America, adulation that some, at least a few, would recoil and realize she’s taking herself way too seriously. No. such. luck.
I gave her a pass at first. I even thought she was admirable. But then she began listening to the Wormtongue’s whispering in her ear and now she believes she has Absolute Moral Authority on all foreign policy. It is long past time for her to, how shall I say, STFU. What she says is anti-American.
SouthernDem on April 24, 2007 at 7:41 PM
Sheehan is drunk with irrelevance.
Merovign on April 24, 2007 at 9:25 PM
We need to respect Ms. Sheehan’s moral authority. How would you feel if your son was drafted and forced to go to overseas to murder those poor freedom fighters. I mean, all she’s doing is trying to protect us from our own ignorance. It’s not like she’s disgracing her son’s memory.
