“Cindy, How Can You Be So Cruel?”

Via KWTX:

The father of a slain Central Texas Marine appears in a new TV spot that began airing Thursday, challenging anti-war protester Cindy Sheehan to a debate.

In the spot, Gary Qualls, whose son, Marine Lance Cpl. Louis Qualls, died in 2004 in Iraq, takes Sheehan to task for calling the President a liar and for erecting a cross bearing his son's name as part of what he calls “your sick cause.”

“Cindy, how can you be so cruel?” Qualls asks in the spot.

Interestingly enough, some of the very same people that have been most outspoken in their belief that President Bush should meet again with Cindy Sheehan, have a decidedly different take on Gary Qualls' request to meet and debate with her.

I was thinking of a different 3 words... they start with "go" and end with "yourself"...

A militant anti-war mother has absolute moral authority. A proud pro-American father is scum unworthy of basic courtesy and is a target for unbridled scorn.

Ignore him Cindy.. But she would rip him up, I saw him on MSNBC, he's a typical southern dumbass.

Not only is he a target for scorn, he's one of those people... you know... red staters...

Is that the brain dead moran that I keep seeing trotted out on cable? Short kind of fat guy that always wears a baseball cap, sounds southern and appears to be learning impaired?

The guy I am thinking of has been making the rounds on all the cable stations as a " * supporter who lost a son in Iraq" (I guess they can only find one person with a dead child delusional or greedy enough to whore themselves out for their Fuhrer) What in the world is there to debate?

I'm not quite clear on this patriotic progressive's meaning.

Are the parents "delusional or greedy enough to whore themselves out for their Fuhrer," in supporting their children's choice to serve their country? Or are our soldiers, sailors and Marines delusional, greedy Furhrer whores for wanting to serve and protect their America?

And last but not least, it wouldn't be a DU conversation without the mandatory Karl Rove reference.

His blatant grandstanding against a grieving mother who is addressing George Bush* -- whose lies & deceit is at issue -- reeks of his being bought by Karl Rove.

But don't you dare question their ideology.

Or their patriotism.
