“I want my mummy.”
Maybe Egypt will keep her.
Please, oh PLEASE...
Who pays for this crap?
Astounding degree of ignorance. Fortunately for world peace she is just a private citizen and will have no effect.
Please, please, pleeeeeeze let her continue to travel through foreign countries, act the way she does when she is in the US of A and find out that she is NOT protected by the US Constitution there the way she is here.
Can’t wait to see what her “civil disobedience” gets her in some third-world monarchy.
Sh’e as dumb as a post, wandering the world looking for just the right cause to join. I hope they keep her.
“..Cindy Sheehan joined a protest Wednesday seeking the support of Egypt’s first lady in ending a military trial..”
Ms. Sheehan does not understand that Egypt is not America where even the rediculous are allowed to spout their opinion. I woder how many times she has already been observed through a sniper’s scope.
She’s not too bright, huh?
She could get flattened by a steam roller!! By accident, of course.
