Is she really going to go?

Some time back, I wrote a little about Cindy Sheehan. In that post, I pointed out my opinion of what Cindy Sheehan was really after. Early this morning, I read an article on AOL (yeah, I know....YUK!) regarding her stepping down as the "face of the peace movement" and returning to California. Since it was early and I was preparing for other things, I only had time to skim the article, but there were references in it that ripped little miss Cindy. Imagine my surprise when I went back later only to find a different AP article under the same headline that was more complimentary to her.

This article is most similar to the one I originally saw this morning. "Good Riddance Attention Whore". Hmmmm, I can only think of one thing to say to the first person that said that about Ms. Sheehan.

I wish I had your way with words.

Like I said in my original post about Cindy Sheehan, her 15 minutes of fame would fade and she will now, hopefully, drift off to oblivion.

He Said What???

I had planned to post a liitle bit this morning about a car show at a festival I went to in Harrison, AR yesterday. Instead, I see a headline on my computer about comments made by former President Jimmy Carter regarding the current administration.

What I find particularly galling about his comments in this article was President Carter referring to President Bush's adminstrayion as "the worst in history" in international relations. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't he the man who sat in the Oval Office while Iranian militants held U.S. Citizens hostage for 444 days? Isn't he the man who's inaction emboldened third world countries to start taking action against the United States, instead of the verbal pot shots they had limited thremselves to prior to the Iranian Hostage Crisis? This from a man who was afraid to take action to protect this country, and instead chose to react (poorly, IMNSHO) to events as they happened?

I have often heard of President Carter's administration referred to as the worst in modern history. Maybe he is just trying to push that label on someone else.

President Carter, stick to building houses for poor folks, and leave governing to others.
