    Videotape of the incident shows that Sheehan yelled "Get out of my face" through the megaphone at the man, who slapped the device away. Other protesters immediately joined Sheehan and traded insults with the man, and a shoving match broke out. The military veteran told reporters that he was upset with the anti-war protesters' effect on troop morale. "They ruin the troops. They get to the troops. They did the same thing in Vietnam," he said.

    FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) - When President Bush vacations at his Texas ranch he won't be hounded by Cindy Sheehan (SHEE'-han) any more. The Gold Star war mom announced Memorial Day she's quitting as the poster child of the anti-Iraq war movement. She's selling the five-acre piece of land she bought near the ranch as a protest headquarters. A spokeswoman for Sheehan says Los Angeles radio talk host Bree Walker is buying it for $87,000 and will preserve it as a peace memorial. A pro-war group called Move America Forward had wanted to buy the parcel but Sheehan refused. Her...

    Anti-war demonstrator Cindy Sheehan was hospitalized Friday evening for dehydration and exhaustion after fasting for more than a month and protesting earlier this week in 100-degree weather, friends and relatives said.

    A year after her first war protest in President Bush's adopted hometown attracted thousands and reinvigorated the nation's peace movement, Cindy Sheehan resumed her vigil Sunday. Under the blazing Texas sun, Sheehan and more than 50 demonstrators again marched a mile and a half toward Bush's ranch, stopping at a roadblock. As Secret Service agents stood silently, Sheehan held up her California driver's license and said she wanted to meet with the president. "It doesn't say my new address, but I do live here now," said Sheehan, who lives in Berkeley, Calif., and recently bought land in Crawford for war...

    After BushCo’s stooge, Nouri al-Maliki, was in America last week thanking soldiers for their sacrifices in helping the USA kill and oppress his very own people and thanking Congress for giving George a blank check to spend as he sees fit to kill and oppress the Iraqi people, almost 4,000 of our soldiers in Alaska’s 172nd Stryker Brigade were shown how much they are appreciated by having their enlistments extended another 120 days. I saw the Angel of Death in the skin of Donald Rumsfeld say, while he was busy rushing in or out of the Pentagon (it doesn’t really...

    An Acadiana mother has a message for anti-war protestors. She wants them to stop profiting from the death of her son. And, it's a fight she's hoping to take to Washington, D.C. The mother of a Marine killed-in-action tells how she hopes to protect her son's name. Yvette Burridge has been spending every free moment on the internet, fuming over one site in particular - carryabigsticker.com, which promotes and sells anti-war and anti-President Bush paraphernalia. Why is she angry? Burridge's son, Marine Private First Class David Paul Burridge was killed in Iraq in 2004 when a suicide bomber attacked his...

    Mother Sheehan fans will recall that as hurricane Katrina threatened to remove her grieving visage from the front page of the nation's newspapers, Cindy got together with her pals, the Veterans For Peace, to start a Katrina relief effort. The self-designated worthy being, Michael Moore, began vouching and shilling for the VFP's Katrina relief program.As discussed previously, the VFP asked for donations that they claimed would be used to "support" the Red Cross. The VFP later falsely claimed that the Red Cross had designated them "the best shelter" doing Katrina relief. (The VFP never opened any kind of shelter.)Meanwhile, the...
