The Peaceful Occupation of Crawford (Day 10); Misses and Miracles
-- a message from Cindy Sheehan, Crawford, TX
We still have so many great things happening at Camp Casey. In spite of all the smears and lies, people are still coming.
The most amazing thing today was learning that Camp Caseys are opening and spreading all over the country. They have been set up in Boston, Portland, Seattle, and elsewhere. If you can't make it to Camp Casey, set up your own version. Camp Caseys are amazing places full of love and hope. I am so gratified that the movement is spreading.
There is a meeting tomorrow at the County Commissioner's meeting to vote on closing Prairie Chapel Road and then evicting us. We were all worried about that and planning on being arrested when we got the best news yet. The property owner who owns property near Bush's ranch and right across the street from Bush's church will let us move Camp Casey there!! He has property on both sides of the road ... a full acre for us to camp! We are so excited!!! We can fit more people and we will be closer to the ranch. Miracles, miracles.
Mike Rogers from Tokyo showed up today and a dear woman from Australia who was a human shield in Iraq and knows that the Iraqi people are not jumping for joy that the policies of Bush destroyed their country.
This is an extremely short post today ... I am exhausted.
A volunteer all the way; Casey enlisted, re-enlisted, volunteered for the mission that took his life and earned the Bronze Star trying to rescue fellow soldiers.
Casey Sheehan's actions in life are the antithesis of and a direct repudiation of Cindy Sheehan's views and actions!
Somewhere...in the deep south...a former vice-presidential candidate seethes in jealousy.

Mam,
You have the right to say stupid things.
Anything stupid you say will be used against you in the court of public discourse.
You have the right to consult Michel Moore;
Everyone else has the right to ridicule you if you do
ARRRRGGGGHHHHH! I'm trying to eat.
Hopefully from Houston! :)
"Focus off of her" ---LOL.
I saw a picture the other day of Ms. Sheehan where she looked like a player working on an MGM movie. She had a lady working on her hair like she was a Hollywood starlet. But, it did look like the hairdresser had cut her hair to a nice, more appropriately shorter length...... short enough not to get trapped inside the top of her straitjacket.

"They have been set up in Boston, Portland, Seattle"
Really? Well if there's one in Boston the media has yet to discover it.
