Something Cindy needs to factor into her talking points this week [View All]

[Tamyrlin79]

Howard Dean said something very important today in his interview: If women in Iraq have fewer rights than before, then what are we doing in Iraq?

What he is saying is that we have failed to increase the level of freedom and democracy in Iraq. It is a direct counter to the presidents' fall-back "freedom and democracy" reason for the cause of the war. Having countered the president's last excuse for the war, what is his excuse now? This falls directly within Cindy Sheehan's line of questioning. I think Howard Dean has read the tea leaves in the Cindy Sheehan Confrontation correctly and is helping to push it forward now. Yay Dean.

Still, Cindy is out on the Ranch, so I hope someone tells her about Dean's interview and what he said. It could help her in talking to the press and responding to the president in the following week. And being a woman herself, Cindy is the perfect spokesperson to forward that line of attack.
