William Rivers Pitt interviews Cindy Sheehan - video

[BelgianMadCow]

can be found at http://www.truthout.org/multimedia.htm

I think it is very powerful. Brought a tear to my eye near the end, and I'm not even a US citizen.

Nothing in the video was new to me, as I'm a DUer, but I didn't see the video posted, so I thought there may have been others who missed it.

I truly believe you the people will be your own saviour, by getting off your butts.
Gore's internets make squashing the truth impossible as DU attests, and come september at the latest you all are gonna retake you country. If not in all vestiges of power at once, at least the pendulum will start swinging back. I just hope the world gets there without any major BFEE staged "event". you know, the Pearl Harbor type.

If this was the umptienth time this is posted, just let it drop :-)

2. Thanks

I'm trying to follow all of this while I'm in France and to hear from her directly was a great gift.

3. That was great!

Thanks.

4. you're all welcome :-) and good to see "our" Pitt in action too

when he asked "what, in Casey, required you to make this stand", you could see him looking for the right word.

And he found it. He not only writes well.

9. Thank You!

:yourock:

[BelgianMadCow]

12. well that's a first :-)

me rockin' I mean. Thank you and :hi:

By the way, I've noticed you often suffice with just a . for a post.
Often I find the topics you kick like that are very noteworthy and got dragged down in whatever the hot topic du jour was.

Much appreciated as well.

14. "all the words he uses, she IS"

courage, dignity, strenth.

Great interview. :thumbsup:

[BelgianMadCow]

15. That's what struck me as the most powerful sentence too

so easy to distinguish real from fake when they compared 1 on 1.

Just imagine Bush having to take questions from this Woman.

He would go CuckooBananas I'm sure.

16. I stole your graphic

It's at the bottom of my gynophobia piece. Hope it's okay, if not, PM me and I'll take it down. I put it in my own photobucket account so it won't use your bandwidth.

17. Oops - no you didn't - I stole it myself

I think it was created on DU for the express purpose of using it in our sig lines, so I think it's okay :-)

[SuffragetteSal]

18. first time for me watching the video

One Mother's Stand...tears came to my eyes...

[Kali]

19. Question and a kick for this, I suppose

though I may post it on it's own.

I have a slow dial up connection and can rarely see videos or even audio from websites and I sure as heck can't stream live stuff, but if someone sends me sill e-mails with funny commercials or stuff like that I can see them fine (although it may take a long time to come in) My question could somebody send me a copy of this? Would that work? I have no idea how to "capture" video off the computer.

Just curious as I would like to see this, She has caught my heart and Will has been great about keeping his blog up to date so we can follow what is happening down there.

20. Will speaks to Cindy about the "so called family" letter

Thursday 11 August 2005
8:05 PM

I spoke to Cindy about the "so-called" family who attacked her today. This godmother, according to Cindy, did not know Casey at all. They saw each other maybe once a year. As for the other family members, they have always been at political loggerheads, so their response is no big shock.

Cindy treated it with a shrug. Her husband will send out a more detailed response soon. In the meantime, Cindy says the letter is to be treated as little more than bad, dumb noise.

The vigil goes on.

21. thanks

someone just starting hyping about it on OLS-Drudge acts implies it's a bunch of relatives- but I saw no names- I bet these nameless relatives the BushInc. drudged up will be well compensated. They sure like to dig up and fling stuff when feeling conored.
Enjoyed the truthout videos. COOL!

[roguevalley]

22. someone posted that bush is dumber than a two slice toaster. :)

[mrdmk]

23. This will be a good place to post this, Mr. Bush Jr. does not know history

It was not guns and people who use them that settled the American West. No, no, it was the women with children that demanded that the men go to work and come home afterward, to build churches and schools, to have good food so all can nourished and anything that was constructive to society. Mr. Bush Jr. needs to stop fooling himself and realizes the gravity of the situation.

25. kiiick

[Blue_Roses]

27. puts it into perspective

Bush won't meet with her because he's scared--scared he has to be held accountable and that's just too much for a fake like him to bear. On the other hand, Cindy--Cindy, not only has showed dignity and grace in this, but true courage. As someone who has lived in Texas, I know that heat is unbearable--especially in the flat land there with no trees, making it all the more unbearably hot. There aren't enough words to express how much I respect this woman for her tenacity and courage.
