Cindy Sheehan, self-described mother to the world and anti-American activist, has had a pang of PR-conscience and rejected plans for a protest in her honor at an American military hospital in Landsthul, Germany when she travels to Europe next month.
Obviously well aware of the black eye the antiwar movement recieved by protesting outside Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C., Sheehan has urged protesters to not target soldiers with their demonstrations.
Sheehan wrote in her latest missive on leftists blogs:
"In the frenzy and excitement of my trip to France and Germany, some well meaning pacifists in the area have scheduled me to set up a Camp Casey outside of Landsthul, Germany, in front of the military hospital. I won't agree to do that."
She further said, "The Camp Casey in Germany could be moved to a place where people with decision making power can see it. The soldiers have very little to say in their fates after they enlist (which is an entirely different subject) but especially the ones who have already been wounded in the service of their country…no matter how evil and greed-serving the phony mission is."
Sheehan concluded her plea to not protest soldiers by saying, "Let's leave our soldiers out of our protests. They have been put through so much by their commander in chief and his callous cronies already."
Sheehan urges her supporters to set up Camp Casey's in front of Karl Rove's home in D.C. and recruiting centers, and at more traditional and non-controversial locations such as Congressional offices, the White House and embassies.
Sheehan fails to make the connection that soldiers who work at recruiting centers would be the targets of such protests, but then again we don't expect much in the way of common sense from her.
Link Sheehan's latest missive.
FYI.
>Sheehan has urged protesters to not target soldiers with their demonstrations.
There ya go, just demostrates the wrong side peaceniks are on.
Can't we just export her somewhere? I understand there are rockets to space carrying ashes of the deceased. I think her brain qualifies.
File under: stopped clock right twice every day. But, I'll give her credit for saying it anyway.
Cindy who??
Cindy is just jealous that someone found a way to out whore the media whore.
She's gone from national nuisance to international nuisance. Can we buy her a one-way ticket to the International Space Station so she can fulfill her dream of becoming a galactic nuisance?
Most importantly: Casey Sheehan was a hero and deserves to be remembered as such, not as a son overshadowed by a freakish, publicity hound mother.
It might be cold to say but I think Cindy has forgotten about Casey. It's me, me, me with her.
Trying to look like something other than the kook she is, though I believe Sheehan is sincere.
She did'nt forget, she's been using her brave sons coffin as her personal soapbox since he lost his life defending her right to be an as*hole.
His Mom made a memorial page for Casey. Please note that she hasn't updated his page since 5/2006. I guess her own fame is more important than her son's memorial.
Has there ever been a bigger ego with so little to go with it?
I think Mother Sheehan got a texie from Hillary saying,
`Back off b!tch. It's me in 08, not you.'
Makes me wonder even more about what Casey was feeling when he picked up his '16 every morning.

She sure didn't seem to have a problem with it when she was standing outside Walter Reed with her other anti-american buddies. I think she's just playing both sides.
100% phony.
McCarron is just a father figure for them till Charlie Manson gets paroled.
