Mark Steyn on Cindy Sheehan.....

Mark Steyn (www.steynonline.com) has another great column (typical), the linked article is at bottom, this one on the Cindy Sheehan circus in Crawford, TX. Here's a paragragph taken out from the article, just shows the hypocrisy and unfocused direction of the left....................

"They're not children in Iraq; they're grown-ups who made their own decision to join the military. That seems to be difficult for the left to grasp. Ever since America's all-adult, all-volunteer army went into Iraq, the anti-war crowd have made a sustained effort to characterize them as "children." If a 13-year-old wants to have an abortion, that's her decision and her parents shouldn't get a look-in. If a 21-year-old wants to drop to the broadloom in Bill Clinton's Oval Office, she's a grown woman and free to do what she wants. But, if a 22- or 25- or 37-year-old is serving his country overseas, he's a wee "child" who isn't really old enough to know what he's doing."

Great analogy Mr Steyn! Here's the whole article........
