She needs to cuddle up to Tiger. He's well known to be generous with the ladies.

I wondered where she was and if she would speak out against Obama. She's resurfacing. I have to give her props for consistency, though:
Dear Mr. Obama,
I hear that you were awarded the Nobel Peace Prize recently in Oslo, Norway and that, in addition to that spiffy medal, it comes with 1.4 million tax-free dollars that you are going to "donate to charity."
I just want to let you know that there are still some of us in the US who oppose the wars, even though you are president, and its nothing personal, but I vehemently oppose your wars and especially oppose the escalation of troops to Afghanistan and the fact that there has been no de-escalation from Iraq.
It has been super-tough being a peace activist since you took office, because a lot of my colleagues supported your candidacy and gave you a "wait and see"and "give him a chance," while I have been working against these policies since Bush was president and have never stopped.
Well, I don´t know if you have heard, but I am planning on setting up a Camp right across the street from your house on the lawn of the Washington Monument called--Camp OUT NOW--Not only will it be an anti-war Camp, but it will also be a community for people who have lost their jobs and homes during the past years of the Goldman Sachs depression. Also, while the need is rising, the city of Washington, DC is cutting back on services for the poor.
Mr. Obama, Camp OUT NOW will provide services to these people AND be the launching pad for what we hope will end the mad wars for profit and imperial power in Iraq-Afghanistan-Pakistan.
You proposed a "Just War" theory during your Nobel acceptance speech and I just want to also let you know that we don´t think, and never have thought, these wars are "Just," but we think what we are doing, beginning March 13th is extremely, "Just." I think if you thought about it really hard, you would agree. We are saving the lives of Americans and our brothers and sisters in the Middle East.
Well, Mr. Obama, the reason that I am writing to you is to apply for part of that money that you will be donating to charity. We don´t need all of it, but my coalition--Peace of the Action--could use a couple of hundred thousand of it!
Please go to www.PeaceoftheAction.org for more info about our efforts, which we are hoping will, "Make you do it."
You can go to www.Paypal.com and put in my email address: Cindy@CindySheehansSoapbox.com to make a donation online, or mail a check to:
PO BOX 6264
Vacaville, Ca 95696
You did say, time and again, during your campaign that we the people had to "make you," and Peace of the Action will do just that! We just want to be of service to show you the way to Peace.
Thanks for your consideration,
Cindy Sheehan
Director of the Peace of the Action Coalition
So let me get this straight, she wants money from the CIC for her coalition, so they they can camp out in D.C. and oppose the CIC's military plans?!
Also, the front page of her website talks about "creative strategies" and "bolder action":
We’ve marched, written, called and faxed but the wars continue.
It is time for new creative strategies and bolder action.
Peace of the Action will bring forward an historic escalation of Peace Activism like we have not seen in the United States in a very long time.
We cannot allow business as usual go on in the Capital of the American Empire.
On a daily basis, Peace of the Action will perform courageous deeds of civil resistance until our demands are met.
We will show our righteous outrage at U.S. militarism by showing our elected officials that “Peace means Business,” by clogging up government business. We want an end to Empire so we can build a new economy that is not drained by the costs of Empire and war. This Empire does not create jobs abroad while it has the effect of destroying jobs here on the domestic front. This Empire builds the profits of transnational businesses while Americans go further into debt and fights wars for oil and resources. It’s time to stop using militarism as the PRIMARY tool of foreign policy. It’s time to start adhering to the U.S. Constitution and International Law.
Our demand is simple:
Troops out of the Middle East, which includes drones, permanent bases, contractors and torture/detention facilities.
We will begin Peace of the Action on March 13th when we gather in Washington, DC to erect Camp OUT NOW on the lawn of the Washington Monument, directly across the street from the White House and our actions will begin on March 22nd.
We need individuals who realize that time is running short for us to truly affect change through commitment and dedication to humanity through the end to the U.S. Empire (and its subsidiaries).
Individual commitment will entail at least a once a week civil resistance mission and support to the group at large through contributing to the running and infrastructure of our encampment.
Your commitment can range from the entire action: Until our demands are met, or any other chunk of time that you are available. Click here to join now!

Go Cindy! Remember when she was a star on NBC? Remember when NBC says she has the moral authority over Bush? OHHH those days, thrown under the bus.
Exactly. The State Run Media’s love affair with Cindy is long over.
I thought any gift or gratuity a sitting president gets belongs to the nation. Can he really accept any monies and if so, shouldn’t it go directly to the Treasury?
That’s right Cindy, and Mullah Omar agrees with you. Afghani girls don’t need schooling, they need a burqua, circumcision, and should be married off by age 6...
We're having a nice cold winter here in DC. The mental image I have of those flags around the Washington Monument straining in the stiff winds is beautiful. I'm sure it will be a lovely location for her to set up camp.
A vacous twit and a nervy twit too.
Protest the One and beg for a coupla hundred thousand at the
same time.
Old Cindys coffers must be getting a bit low hopefully
Notice that much like the “peace” demonstrations of the 60s, it’s not happening until spring. Bet they get the MacArthur treatment (as they should) if it’s perceived they are embarrassing BHO.
I have a copy of Rush’s parody, “Everyone loves Cindy”
At least Cindy is sincere (even if completely clueless) ,unlike the 9/11 Jersey Girls. I give her credit for that, unlike most republicans and democrats.
Another white slut begging for money. Haven’t we had enough of that with Tiger.
Cindy, you served your purpose as a useful idiot for the leftist pressholes during the Bush presidency.
They are FINISHED with you now. Exit stage left please.
You gotta giver her credit for pursuing her convictions. Those of us who oppose govt health care, more gun laws, loss of U.S. sovereignty via global tax on breathing etc. could watch and learn. There are a lot more of us than there are of her kind.
Is it true that the prize money is tax-free? By what statute...also..If one donates a “tax-free” prize to charity, can one still take a tax dedection for it?
reagan_fanatic: “What a vacuous twit.”
Cindy Sheehan or the president?
Take your pick ;)
Why wait until March 13th to set up camp. Do it NOW Cindy.
