Sheehan Says U.S. Started WWII, Should Not Have Fought Hitler

This column by Cindy Sheehan appeared in the July 22nd edition of the San Francisco Chronicle. In this column, she writes about her upcoming Independent campaign against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Now, take a look at this! Cindy says that the Democrats started EVERY war that the U.S. fought, and including WORLD WAR II. So according to her, the U.S. should not have fought that war or in other words, should not have fought Hitler. Now everyone knows that I don't believe in the Iraq War, nor did I believe in the Vietnam War. Nancy Pelosi opposes the Iraq War and is working on getting legislation passed to get our troops out. Many Democrats including Pelosi opposed the Vietnam War. Cindy also attacks the Democrats for slavery and the internment camps, but these are not issues that she can successfully pin on Nancy Pelosi. Note this quote from Cindy Sheehan's column: "I was a lifelong Democrat only because the choices were limited. The Democrats are the party of slavery and were the party that started every war in the 20th century, except the other Bush debacle. The Federal Reserve, permanent federal income taxes, not one but two World Wars, Japanese concentration camps, and not one but two atom bombs dropped on the innocent citizens of Japan -- all brought to us via the Democrats." In her column, Cindy also says "Good change has happened during Democratic regimes, but as in the civil rights and union movements, the positive changes occurred because of the people, not the politicians." I agree that positive changes come because of mass movements by the people, but suppose we had someone like W. Bush as or Reagan as President during those times? Would we have had those changes? I think not! Cindy says "Some people have offered to quit their jobs to move to California's Eighth Congressional District to help my possible campaign." When next year rolls around perhaps SOME people will come to help her, but as I said before too many people are pleased that we have a Democratic House and Pelosi as the Speaker instead of the Republicans. More people will be working to elect a Democratic President and more Democrats to Congress, so Cindy Sheehan with her misplaced priorities is dreaming! I'm sure that her remarks that the U.S. started WWII, meaning that we should not have fought Hitler, will be very helpful to her in her campaign. I'm sure that Nancy Pelosi will help Cindy Sheehan advertise that position of her's. Here is the link to her column.
