Shock and flaws

One columnist seems to be pre-emptively striking at Cindy Sheehan with invective like:

'Cindy Sheehan, pin-up girl for the loopy Left, global terrorists, and the anti-US, anti-Howard, anti-Iraq war push, is entertaining her addled fans in Sydney tonight. '
It seems the only defense left for the pro-Howard pro-invasion minority is to create offense with phrases like 'loopy Left, global terrorists' and 'addled fans': obviously a lack of WMD or any other proper excuse for post-9/11 misadventures has taken its toll on the critics ability to present a coherent reason for involvement. Here's what Cindy Sheehan has said in Australia today:
'I think Australians, they just need to get out on the streets and they need to say, "John Howard, you work for us" [...] George Bush isn't even popular in America any more so I don't know why any leaders in any countries who claim to govern their countries with the consent of the people they govern would align themselves closer with George Bush [...] I believe George Bush is the greatest recruiter for Al Qaeda in Al Qaeda's history [...] You don't kill innocent Iraqi people, you don't fight a war on terror with a war of terror and that's what George Bush is doing and that's what [the Australian] Government is doing in support of George Bush. To say I'm a tool of the loopy Left, let me tell you almost 70 per cent of Americans agree with me.'
