Tipping point

Steve Gilliard gets, erm, animated over the sliming of Cindy Sheehan:

There are plenty of fucking morons out there saying that Cindy Sheehan is providing encouragement to terrorists. That American soldiers are dying because of her.

Does anyone actually seriously think that the terrorists were just about to pack up and go home, give up the jihad and all that, right before Cindy came onto the scene? Does anybody really think that al-Zarqawai was considering calling the whole thing off and going back to a promising career in theoretical physics, but then he heard there was a white Christian woman in Texas who was protesting the president, and that gave him the reassurance needed to continue the fight?

Seriously, what the fuck? Like there was a whole bunch of terrorists sitting on the fence about whether or not they really want to go all the way from Syria or Saudi Arabia to Iraq to fight the Americans, and they were really wondering about it, and Cindy's protest just pushed them right over the edge, and now they're learning how to make car bombs? No! They don't fucking care! The asshole wingnuts are just trying to smear Cindy the only fucking way that they know how, by making her unpatriotic and a supporter of terrorism.
