Cindy Sheehan, the California mother who started the vigil along the road leading to Bush's ranch, held a sign that read: "Why do you make time for donors and not for me?"

Because those donors don't make common cause with America's enemies?

"Useful Idiots"

"President Bush and his motorcade passed the growing camp of war protesters"


Funny how they call it "growing" yet manage to omit any numbers.

Cindy Sheehan, the California mother who started the vigil along the road leading to Bush's ranch, held a sign that read: "Why do you make time for donors and not for me?"

She is quickly regressing to 9 years old!

Is Cindy still out there? I thought she was supposed to be arrested?

[NathanBookman]

I heard that the Secret Service gave the protestors a "pressed ham" as they drove by.

Which leaves 299,999,900 Americans who AREN'T idiots at this protest. MSM is blowing this all out of proportion.

After a week, and still, only a hundred or so protesters.

I like the part where she spews talking points about the reasons for war being disproven, but everything she cites has been proven true in numerous ways.

If she'd get out of the eclipse of Michael Moore, she could see the light of truth. She just ain't lookin for it.

Funny how they call it "growing" yet manage to omit any numbers.

Just like the stats that black women are the fastest growing segment of AIDS victims... Which means that when you go from 14 protesters to 17 protesters, you use the term growing.

"Why do you make time for donors and not for me?"

I agree. I mean, psycho-Cindy is the center of the Universe, isn't she? I mean, she's the only mother to have ever lost a son in the military and she deserves all the attention.

The last line of the article had the numbers:

Sheehan, 48, of Vacaville, Calif., set up camp last weekend a few miles from Bush's ranch, and the group with her has now grown to more than 100.

From what I've read so far, Cindy Sheehan has passed grieving mother status.

She may still grive for her son but there's something else (or someone else) that motivates her.

There's something unseemly about it but yet, it's hard to openly attack her.

She reminds me a lot of Patty Wetterling who ran from Congress in Minnesota's 6th District last year. Her son was kidnapped and likely murdered 10-12 years ago.

She was deeply involved in missing children issues as well and she had almost a force field of sympathy around her that made it hard to attack her on the issues.

Cindy Sheehan has the same sort of thing going for her.

I heard 50 on Rush today.

Where was Jenna and her unique wave that reporters caught a few months ago, when you really need it?

[digger48]

I just realized yesterday where Vacaville was.

To her peers at home, this is "normal" behavior.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Cindy Sheehan, .....held a sign that read: "Why do you make time for donors and not for me?"

Because the Secret Service is fairly confident that donors won't harm the President?

[N. Theknow]

"President Bush and his motorcade passed the growing camp of war protesters"

If they are growing, they should need some fertilizer.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Sounds about right.

Wonder where she and the rest of her merry men are staying at night and who is picking up the tab. Where do they go to the bathroom, do they pick up their litter, are their cars parked overnight on the side of the road and last time I checked, it was illegal for someone to put a memorial on public property more than 24hours.( a lot of people use to put crosses and flowers at the site of a relative's/friend's accident)
