Someone sent me this link yesterday from Cindy Sheen’s blog about the “Trial of the Century<\/a>” in which Cindy tries to rally the peace troops to protest against her arrest and subsequent imprisonment for several hours. The most instructive part the post is the statement from Elaine Brower;<\/p>\n

\u201cMy son served 3 combat tours as a US Marine. My family suffered tremendous strain and stress with each re-deployment, and we were lucky to see him come home alive, but broken in a way that no one understands except the small percentage of families who are asked to make sacrifices for the illegal, illegitimate and immoral wars and occupations that this government refuses to end. I was participating in a peaceful protest allegedly safeguarded under the first amendment against furthering the deaths of millions of people. It is an outrage that we have no redress of our grievances, and spent 52 hours in jail because of it.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Notice how quickly she drags out her son’s service as shield to hide behind. That’s a bit different than her sentiments in the video I linked the other day<\/a> in which she called some helicopter pilots on Coney Island “baby killers”. I guess it’s OK for her to disparage the service of other mothers’ sons, while she hides behind her own son’s honorable service.<\/p>\n

Hypocrite. <\/p>\n

The thing about Brower is that she’s proud of the fact that her politics are the polar opposite of her ex-husband, her parents, virtually everyone she knows. I get the feeling that she is being contrary strictly for the sake of being contrary. Like a two-year-old child.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
