Cindy Sheehan to Protest Against Blue Angels Air Show in Maine

BRUNSWICK, Maine The woman leading protests against President Bush's conduct of the Iraq war will protest a Blue Angels air show in Brunswick, Maine, next month.

Bruce Gagnon (GAHNG'-yuhn) of Maine Veterans for Peace says Cindy Sheehan will be the featured guest at a protest outside the Brunswick Naval Air Station on September tenth.

Sheehan, whose son Casey died in Iraq, camped outside the president's Central Texas ranch a month ago to demand a meeting with him. The Vacaville, California, woman hasn't gotten an audience, but she attracted a lot of support. She's promised to carry her protest to Washington and beyond after Bush goes back to work.

Bush has said he sympathizes with Sheehan's loss, but thinks it would dishonor the soldiers who gave their lives in Iraq to pull out before the job is done.

Will Ben & Jerry's be naming an ice cream flavor after her?

Yes, she is insane, but she is doing great work for our side.

The Liberals over-reach again, and expose the craziness of their agenda. I hope Sheehan continues to display her special brand of wackiness each and every day leading up to the election. I seriously doubt that she could persuade a majority of Americans to join her. In fact, she drives people our way.

Now, this sorry POS is really starting to piss me off. I have had it with her and that whole bunch. Someone needs to give her an attitude adjustment.

Few leftists gop to see the Blue Angels perform , Mostly its a show for real Americans. Her camp may not be such a healthy place to be in. Be sure if you go take plenty of rotten eggs and get your throwing arm in shape.

In Vietnam, we wore patches on our flight jackets that read "Napalm sticks to hippies."

She really is a mess. I lived in Maine for 14 years in the 70's and 80's and there was no way that "Bruce Gagnon (GAHNG'-yuhn) of Maine Veterans for Peace" would have stood outside NAS Brunswick and not have been confronted. Something has happened to a great State.

When did he stop working?
Their hate for America is just limitless as is mine for them and their ilk.

Later this year she'll be protesting Wonder Bread, Toll Roads, GI Joe Dolls, Brill Cream, and SUVs. If you want a designated publicity hound, just call rent-a-nut and ask for Cindy.

"Sheehan, whose son Casey died in Iraq"


Geez, I didn't know that.
I also didn't realize that Kerry was in Vietnam.

Cindy, its time to get off the stage, your 15 minute act is over, so over!

When did protests start featuring a " special guest protester?"

Could they do anything MORE to advertise that this is being run by the media and marketing concerns??

I can't believe this is true, but I really hope that it is.

Being followed around by a weirdo foot masseur? Sweet.

Being followed around by a violent homosexual ex-Marine? Sweeter.

Appearing with Joan "I was already a walking caricature in 1972" Baez? Awesome.

Appearing with Al "The Tawana Brawley Pimp" Sharpton? More Awesome.

Protesting the Blue Angels? Insanely awesome.

No hippy loser has worse PR tactics than this woman.

"Sheehan, whose son Casey died in Iraq"

Is the new version of:

"John Kerry, a Vietnam veteran"

Thanks for posting that. I'm still chuckling. I especially liked the pic of the cat putting the shredded fliers to good use.

How long before she claims Bush sent that hurricane to get her off the front pages? (or has this already been said?)
