CRAWFORD, Texas -- Iraq war protester Cindy Sheehan said Friday she plans to expand her focus to Congress, starting with House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, a Bush ally and fellow Texan.

Sheehan has been camped outside the president's Crawford, Texas, ranch this month, seeking a meeting with him to discuss the U.S. presence in Iraq, where her son was killed in 2004.

She plans to begin a bus tour on Thursday to the White House to campaign for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq.

It's a good idea, but for one thing.

Unlike her supporters, who apparently have a surplus of available "leisure time" to sit around, rub her feet, and sing protest songs, virtually all of the available pool of conservatives actually have responsibilities and jobs.

I like your idea, I but wouldn't waste my hard-earned vacation time on the likes of her.

I hope she pisses off the wrong person and they take her out. I have had it with these anti-American citizens. As far as I am concerned I make no distinction between those like Cindy Sheehan and the bastards who flew planes into our World Trade Centers and Pentagon. You're either for us or against us and it doesn't matter if you are an American citizen or not.

Mike, someone is likely to do this to Cindy sooner or later.

Does she think that she's going to get face-time once congress gets back to town??

She might...some of the Congresscritters that are not up for re-election next year (which naturally exclude all of the Representatives) are bound to come out and support her. If what Rush says about them (put a bag of excrement in front of them, they'll step in it), it's just a matter of time. (Ed. Note: I'm surprised it hasn't happened already)

Boxer is my first pick, followed by Ted Kennedy, and John Kerry. I know he considers himself viable to run for president again, but all he'll do is say that he supported her before he didn't (depending on which way the wind and Terayza's money is blowing), and blame it on the right wing for attacking his patriotism (by quoting him), because he served in Vietnam...
