Cindy Sheehan for President

Accountablity - holding the President's feet to the fire! Sounds like a great idea, but why is it that the apologists and W, Rove and Co sympathisers find wrong where it is unduly warranted and placed? Instead of trying to use Rovian tactics to discredit an upstanding American, perhaps we should work to find out what went wrong with the current administration and force him and his cracker reichwingers out before we are in a bigger pickle than we are already in.

Slice:
This is George Bush’s accountability moment. That’s why I’m here. The mainstream media aren’t holding him accountable. Neither is Congress. So I’m not leaving Crawford until he’s held accountable. It’s ironic, given the attacks leveled at me recently, how some in the media are so quick to scrutinize -- and distort -- the words and actions of a grieving mother but not the words and actions of the president of the United States.

That slice just says it all, doesn't it? That SHOULD become the sound bite heard round the world, but in this day and age the only repeat play it will get will be outside the U.S.

For President? I'll go you one better. For person who kicks the asses of the media and makes reporting be about fact finding again.


Probably not an offical title.
