The Conservative "Anti-Veteran's Family Movement": An Ongoing Series

UPDATE 8:30 AM: Read Cindy's latest post on dailykos. HERE

Then tell me that she does not support the troops or love her country like MAF implies.

So the "hate veteran's families first" crowd will (possibly) roll into town at 4pm today.

High five to the Globe-Republican's Greg Cunningham for a very well-balanced article on the Move America Forward Cindy Sheehan hater's bus tour 2005. Rare for that RNC rag.

Who is the group? A bunch of spontaneous grass roots Bush supporters? Uh . . . nope.

MAF was thought up by a Sacramento, CA. public relations firm headed by a vile Republican character assassin with BIG ties to the RNC. Sal Russo.

It was organized to have the appearance of a grass roots campaign for the recall that put Der Gropenfhurer in the Guv mansion. HERE

Who is the Melanie Morgan in the picture? A right wing wannabe Laura 'the unloved' Ingraham clone. Media Matters has pegged her on her lies and disinformation. HERE

I wonder if the parents of the dead soldiers riding with them know anything about the history of this group that showed the Swift Boat liars how to get up and running to smear a decorated war hero.

MAF has called Nancy Pelosi, "One of the worst examples of a 'Domestic Enemy' . . ." to give one example.

They TRIED to get an anti-Farhenheit 9/11 movement going that failed to get ONE theater owner to cancel the showing of that movie.

MAF has been an astroturf sham from day one. They are the equivalent to modern patriot police. . . brownshirts are a more apt description.

Keith Olberman has these thugs' number HERE
(Thanks to Crooks and Liars)

The parents touring with them are grieving. Our fight is not with them. When they say that Cindy Sheehan does not speak for them, remember . . . she never has said she speaks for anyone but herself and Casey, who is dead and cannot speak for himself. HERE

She, a taxpayer, a citizen, someone whom BUSH IS AN EMPLOYEE OF . . . wants an answer to her question . . . what is the 'noble cause' her son died for.

Sounds pretty reasonable to us at PTS.
