ABC's Gibson on Cindy Sheehan's War Protest: 'Enough Already'

When George W. Bush was President, ABC and Charles Gibson, like most media members, couldn't get enough of anti-war protester Cindy Sheehan.

Now that Barack Obama is in the White House, the host of "World News Tonight" is no longer interested in Sheehan, even telling WLS radio in Chicago, "Enough already."

I guess she served her purpose as reported by the Washington Examiner's Byron York Thurday:

    In an appearance August 18 on WLS radio in Chicago, ABC News anchor Charles Gibson was asked about anti-war protester Cindy Sheehan's plans to travel to Martha's Vineyard next week, where she will protest the Iraq and Afghanistan wars while President Obama is vacationing there. Gibson, whose newscast and network featured Sheehan when she led anti-war protests outside President Bush's Texas ranch in 2005, answered, "Enough already." ...

And Cindy goes under the bus. To be fair to her she is at least continuing her protest (however misguided it may be) now that a Dem is in the White House.

For a moonbat, she is at least showing some integrity.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

But it wasn't "enough" when President Bush was in office? :whatever:

I think that she should be covered extensively just to make her look as bat-shit crazy as she is.

When opposition to a war effort which--wittingly or not--serves as the lynchpin of the enemy's strategic concept is based not on principle but political self-service the word is TREASON.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Wasn't Cindy Sheehan suppose to run against Nancy Pelosi? What happened?

If I remember correctly, which I might or might not, she did run, as a third-party candidate, and lost, big-time.

Reminds me of a W.C. Fields line, "Go away kid, you bother me."
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

In a way, she at least is honest enough about her intent, as opposed to those who pulled her strings.  Funny how I haven't seen a single major anti-war demonstration in the last six months.  Strange, no?

Noel sums it up rather eloquently, "Yeah, enough already, Cindy. Thanks for helping us get Obama in the White House. Now shut up."

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

Definitely agree.  One of the things that Dr. Thomas Sowell wrote in a column last week (or so) was that the "Beer Summit" taught us that Joe Biden doesn't drink a lot--can you imagine, seeing what comes out of his mouth when he's sober, what he'd say while drunk?
