Bush: No Plans to Meet Anti-War Protester
Tuesday, August 23, 2005

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,166516,00.html

DONNELLY, Idaho — President Bush said Tuesday he strongly supported the right to protest the war in Iraq, but said those who want American troops to withdraw immediately were "advocating a policy that would weaken the United States."

The president also said he had no plans to meet Cindy Sheehan (search), the mother of a soldier slain in Iraq who has galvanized the anti-war movement with her a vigil outside Bush's Crawford, Texas, ranch. "I think immediate withdrawal from Iraq would be a mistake," he said. "I think those who advocate immediate withdrawal from not only Iraq, but the Middle East, are advocating a policy that would weaken the United States." Bush was speaking to reporters at an impromptu question-and-answer session outside the Idaho resort where he is vacationing. He plans to speak to National Guard members at an Air Force base near Boise Wednesday.

Bush did meet with Sheehan in June 2004, two months after her son Casey was killed. At the time, Bush kissed her on the cheek, and the pictures were posted on the Sheehan family Web site. They have since been taken down. From Aug. 6 to Aug. 18, Sheehan led about 100 protesters who set up what they dubbed "Camp Casey" outside Bush's ranch. They vowed to stay there until Bush returned to Washington in September, but Sheehan was forced to go to Southern California last week after her mother suffered a stroke.

"I appreciate right to protest," Bush said Tuesday. "I understand her anguish. I met with a lot of families. She doesn't represent the view of a lot of the families I have met with, and I will continue to meet with families." The president added that his national security adviser and a deputy chief of staff also met with Sheehan "early on."

8. Bravado of a "little man".
And are we tired of Bush's desperate attempt at machismo...."When they stand up, we will stand down." (Karen Hughes is really proud of that one!) It makes Bush feel like he is not a loser, when he can sound tough. It is being repeated by every Republican shill around....they know it is to their benefit to make Bush feel like a real man....instead of the truth....that he is a "wimp/bully" who is distroying our beloved country.

7. See Bush on camera in CNN's "Dead Wrong" on Sunday??
It was from either in 2002 or early 03--he's aged about 40 years in two years. Tough shit pal,phony Wars will do that to men,look what it did to Johnson.

14. Bush*s illegal, ill conceived, ill advised, and immoral
War on the Iraqi People has weakened the US far more than Cindy Sheehan!
