Who The In The Hell is Melanie Morgan?
While going through the TV stations I happen upon a replay of Hardball
and this shrew of a woman named Melanie Morgan was on there promoting her Cindy doesn't speak for me tour, or some such nonsense. I assume that Melanie is an ex-GI herself and has served during a time of war so she knows exactly what the military and their families are going through and that is how she can personally determine for others just who Ms. Sheehan speaks for and who she doesn't.

I mean surely Ms Morgans love of country and military meant that she herself served and was only too glad to sacrifice her children to the cause of freedom around the world or else she wouldn't be condemning those who did sacrifice their children... right?.:sarcasm:

6. for a good laugh
Go to the above link and read the bios of Melanie and her cohorts. They sound like they were written by a 10th grader. "Melanie shows off her wit and intellect..."

Then go over to the "art exhibit." Here you will see depictions of people who have literally wrapped themselves in the flag by making the flag their clothing. Please. Tell me. What is so artistic about making a pair of overalls out of the flag?

Clever. Bet no one ever thought of that before.

You will also see this radio station promotes the demonizing of liberals at its "art exhibit" by flying banners that say "liberalism is a mental disorder."

This is seriously aberrant.

15. What immense disrespect for our flag!
Section 8d of the American Flag Code states: "The flag should never be used as wearing apparel." You'd think such patriotic yahoos would know this.

4. I just saw a replay of the show
Edited on Sat Aug-20-05 04:08 AM by AtomicKitten
I believe she is radio talk show host. Funny how she made blanket accusations against Cindy and when confronted by Dick Gregory said she never said that. Kinda like Limbaugh recently. And she's "just sick and tired of the media ignoring the conservative voice." Pahleeeze.
Why these people feel compelled to go to Texas to get in Cindy's face is beyond me. Such a snotty pain in the rear.

5. we must get the word out about this heroine!
I am sure you are correct. It would never occur to a person of conscience like Melanie to presume a stance on the military when she herself has not experienced military life. This would cause credibility problems and I'm sure she would never put herself in that position. She would not want to look foolish.

Being the humble, modest person that she is, I am also sure it would never occur to Melanie to talk of her past military experiences. I think, therefore, that we must come to her aid and let everyone know about her days in the service of our country. Maybe Randi Rhodes could interview her about this and they could talk about the good old days in the service of our proud country.

7. Thank You Everybody!
Once she got to the "if Bill Clinton had started this war the press wouldn't even be covering her protest" statement I changed the channel. I never should have had it on in the first place.:-)

8. that would have been a good time
to mention all the Republican quotes dailykos.com listed about them not supporting Clinton during Bosnia, etc. One would think they'd be choking on their hypocrisy, but then again that would require a conscience.

10. Hmmm... she's very non-partisan - not!
From that about page linked above:

"Move America Forward is a non-partisan, not-for-profit organization..."

Hardly:
"When President Clinton engaged in a series of criminal acts and then tried to use his Administration to cover it up, Morgan rose up and led thousands to the streets to demand Clinton’s impeachment."

Non-partisan? Oh, dearie me...

19. She also did a PR tour in Iraq and handed out soccer balls to kids...
and slammed MSM for not covering how wonderful it is over there.

Maybe should could meet with Cindy and tell her face to face.....

11. I wish she would just go away
Why is it that wanting to bring the troops home is interpreted as a lack of support for them and a lack of patiotism? It must be some skewed way of thinking. Clearly, bringing them hop is supporting their "right to life, liberty and happiness".

12. As I've posted before...
She's a gambling addict who almost had her child removed from her home.

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/1999/10/22/48hours/main67666.shtml

If she's going to speak about how Cindy Sheehan is an unfit mother, she's going to get it right back.

18. I saw that story!
You know, I remember thinking that this was one pathetic, selfish human being. Usually I don't think that after these portraits but in that one I did. I had no sympathy for this woman whatsoever. The things she did were an outrage.

Further proof that psychopaths are not only running the country, they're employing their fellow psychopaths to cover for them. Boy that's gonna' work out well. (see train wreck photo above)

16. OMG! What kind of mother would take her baby to smoke filled
card rooms and expect other gamblers and cocktail waitresses to take care of it when the baby started crying? Answer: The same kind of mother who would criticize another mother......
