The Forgotten War … Protestor
Remember Cindy Sheehan? Well if you don’t, that’s OK. Neither do here one-time comrades-in-arms who sat with her outside Bush’s Crawford ranch trying to get an 2nd meeting with the Commander-in-Chief. She’s up in Martha’s Vineyard protesting the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, but she doesn’t have much company.
And neither does the media, who covered her so extensively, remember her, either. It’s so bad that in order for the Huffington Post to even link to a story on her, it had to resort to quoting that stalwart national news organization the Cape Cod Times.
It was a media circus during the Bush years. Now, suddenly, it’s gotten very, very quiet. What a difference an administration makes.
