To Bill: Questions for Cindy Sheehan
Our Bill McKenzie will be Crawford today hoping to interview California mother Cindy Sheehan and blog on same. He's asked for questions. Mine:
-- Has her group heard from the White House on the idea of his praying with her during a moment of silence Friday?
-- What assurances can she provide that it wouldn't be some kind of political trap?
-- Would she entertain the idea of praying alone with the president on Friday?
-- Does she regret calling him a liar, bastard, killer and maniac?
-- Does she think using such insults advances her cause?
-- Does she regret any such characterizations?
-- Does she think that her actions embolden Islamist radicals in any way that might have led to added casualties in Iraq?
-- Does she think that an immediate pullout would: 1) lead to civil war in the world's oil patch and destabilization of the global economy, 2) allow the Sunni triangle to succeed Afghanistan as the training ground for world terror, 3) show that a small group of Islamist radicals can thwart the desire of a nation's majority to forge some kind of republic and enjoy self rule.
