The Answer to Cindy Sheehan
The answer just struck me on how the president could deal with the Cindy Sheehan protest. The woman who's being managed by the left-wing radicals and held up as a hero by the so-called mainstream media should get what she's asking for - and then some.
The president should get her a message that says to Cindy "I'll not only meet with you, but I'll let you spend a few days with me".
The president should take her with him to Iraq. There they will meet with the soldiers in her son's company and hear about their experiences and attitudes toward the war and the Iraqi people.
She can be invited to attend a briefing with the military leadership about the progress of the war and hear where the insurgents are coming from, who they represent, where they get their weapons and bombs, their tactics, and how the US and Iraqi forces are responding.
She should then be taken to meet with ordinary Iraqi citizens to learn their attitudes about the war, life before and after Saddam, how they feel about America, and their hopes and dreams for their country.
Of course, she also needs to meet the Iraqi leaders who were elected by the people and can tell her how they feel about America, and how long they think they will need the assistance of US troops.
The president's staff should take a cameraman along to record every meeting and event in the trip, providing the resulting video to the news media without editing and without any reporter adding comments or observations.
If Cindy is truly honest and interested in the truth and what's best for our country, I believe such a trip would transform both her perspective on the war and of the president. If not, she will prove her irrelevance as a left-wing idealogue who refuses to allow facts to get in the way of her ideology.
Personally, I would greatly enjoy seeing the resulting video diary of her days with the president. Of course, I know that the usual suspects at ABC/NBC/CBS will take the video and edit it to only show what they want us to see, but I'm sure other networks will be more than happy to show it in its entirety so everyone in America can learn the truth about the war first-hand.
