The Political Teen has video of Mother Sheehan at the overblown, underattended “anti-war” rally in DC. A revealing moment comes when Sheehan has an uncharacteristic, relatively clear thought:

Mama: We have to show the world that Americans don’t torture and it’s not OK for anybody to torture another human being.

Audience: [Huge applause.]

Mama: Americans don’t invade countries and occupy countries preemptively that are no threat to our country.

Audience: [Huge applause.]

Mama: And it’s not OK for other countries to do that either.

Audience: [One whistle, half-hearted golf claps.]

It began with lyrics, but even looking at the PMRC fund raising letter in the last paragraph, at the bottom of the page, it starts looking like it's branching into other areas when it says 'We realize that this material's pervaded other aspects of society' and it's like 'What, you gonna fix it all for me?'
