A familiar theme
Charles Krauthammer unloads on Cindy Sheeham, the antiwar crowd's "de facto" leader, "who catapulted herself into that role by quite brilliantly exploiting the media's hunger for political news during the August recess and by wrapping herself in the courage of her son Casey, who died in Iraq." He also explains that the antiwar movement "has found itself ill served by endowing absolute moral authority on a political radical who demanded that American troops leave not just Iraq but "occupied New Orleans." Who blames Israel for her son's death. Who complained that the news media went "100 percent rita" -- "a little wind and a little rain" -- rather than covering other things in the world, meaning her."
This is a all too familiar : there is, as Krauthammer notes, "widespread discontent" about the war in Iraq - plenty of room for meaningful dissent - but the antiwar message is too angry and shrill, and now its leader simply too nuts, for anyone to want to listen.
