I found it king of peculiar that Sheehan couldn't raise the numbers of supporters at her protests as showed up to protest Tookie's execution. Does that mean that more people care about a cold blooded murderer than they do American soldiers dying in Iraq? Or is it testament that far left tactics are miserably ineffective?

Wow very interesting indeed.

Far left and Far right tactics are bound to fail eventually. There is little room in the mainstream for the fringe of either side.

Yes, I tend to agree.....funky behavior doesn't seem to draw many followers, although it seems to hold the attention of many................. for a short period of time.

Yea, thankfully our society still manages to have some sort of immune system against crazy people with crazy agendas on either side of the political divide. The only reason they get so much attention is because...well, they're crazy and fun to make fun of...and slightly scary.

I agree and the Far left & The Far Right are to blame for the problems of this country.

Despite some intense competition at this site, this post has to be the most pathetic attempt to hang a partisan argument upon that I've seen within the last few months.

Indeed, the very argument that is offered doesn't even make the partisan point.

And it doesn't even mention Clinton so its not a very impressive example of the Republican genre.

So ignore it and move on past my dumb ass.........

I was simply bringing to light that America's big media induced "crusades for justice" have the following of people with the attention spans of two year olds. (you can read all about it in my new book. )

The left does not care about our soldiers in Iraq nor anywhere else. They never have.
The only time they whine about casualties is when it suits them politically.

Sure, there are a lot of perverts out there whining about the death of Tookie.
None of those assholes ever demonstrated for the victims, and that tells you where their morals stand.

This is a silly thread topic. Tookie and Sheehan have nothing to do with each other. I didn't realize that public assembly and protest were "far left tactics." I thought that this was a fairly common democratic action, one that the right engages in (over abortion and homosexuality often). However, I don't suspect that the biased OP will make the link between all these groups, just try to isolate the ones he doesn't agree with them and then call them "miserably ineffective" and somehow the link the topics of international war and capital punishment at home .

I just wonder why, since he is so biased he continually tries to don the "independent" cloak. chassisman, since you are a partisan Republican, just say so. No need for the false appearances.

When the hell did I EVER claim to be an independent!

Yes, this is kind of a silly topic, but you must acknowledge that both Sheehan and Tookie's protesters seem to have failed miserably.
Why do the people opposed to the death penalty wait until the final weeks before they decide they have a cause? Are the too busy playing Mortal Kombat the rest of the year?
Shhehan won't ever be effective until she decides to operate in a fashion that unifies millions of people. She alienates millions more than she attracts.

OK, so it's a Sheehan sucks and so does Tookie thread, and little more.

OK, I understand.
