Here’s a touching scene, featuring Cindy Sheehan and the Reverend Al Sharpton, in front of crosses, looking solemn and sad.

Now let’s zoom out and see the media swarming around this manufactured event:

More pictures of this moving tableau at Getty Images. Co-starring “Army Mom.”

UPDATE at 8/28/05 5:42:51 pm:

Several LGF readers point out the Jewish star at lower right of the second photograph. Somebody tell CODEPINK not to let the Nazis know.

Bwahahahah! That's funny as hell! I never saw that one before, either. "Hey, Pallie Boy. C'mere. Throw some rocks at the Jews, we'll make you a star!"

The Reverend is probably telling MS Sheehan that he wishes to comfort her back at the motor home.

I am not a Psychiatrist but I believe Cindy has a Histrionic Personality Disorder

Diagnostic Criteria

A pervasive pattern of excessive emotionality and attention seeking, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts, as indicated by five (or more) of the following:

1. is uncomfortable in situations in which he or she is not the center of attention
2. interaction with others is often characterized by inappropriate sexually seductive or provocative behavior
3. displays rapidly shifting and shallow expression of emotions
4. consistently uses physical appearance to draw attention to self
5. has a style of speech that is excessively impressionistic and lacking in detail
6. shows self-dramatization, theatricality, and exaggerated expression of emotion
7. is suggestible, i.e., easily influenced by others or circumstances
8. considers relationships to be more intimate than they actually are


Cindy has met all but one criteria and that is #2 but her relationship is with the press and the other Munchausen Syndrome By Proxy protesters that surround her. She Needs help

I agree about no pictures of real tears. !!! I have gone through the entire 7 pages of pictures linked to those above at Getty Immages. I have checked out every one of them with someone looking like they are crying with a very good magnifying glass. There is not one single tear to be seen.

They made it appear like Jihad Cindy has mass support. When you get past the MSM stage-managed picture, there's no there there! What frauds!


I have also counted people in all those Getty pictures. The most I can find in any picture of the camp people with no visible media is a possible 16-20. There is one picture inside the tent from Aug. 21 which includes media and has a few more but not more than 40 in the entire picture. This was the night Joan Baez performed for the first time so I think a number of extras showed up. This is such a ridiculous sham! Why no big group photo huh? (rhetorical question)

Anyone who thinks Hanoi Kerry and Hanoi Jane
aren't behind the anti war crowd
needs to get a clue.

Dallas/Fort Worth Star-Telegram 8-28-05 Jack Douglas Jr.
CRAWFORD TX-
President Bush's supporters poured into Crawford by the thousands Saturday,
for the first time outnumbering war protesters led by Cindy Sheehan,
who began a vigil here three weeks ago,
demanding a personal meeting with the vacationing president
to talk about her son's death in Iraq.

Lame Stream Media : News Flash!

President Bush already met with Cindy Sheehan in June 2004 for 10 minutes.

From The Reporter, Vacaville, CA archive: Bush, Sheehans share moments.


Quit lying!!!!

This is all immaterial now. Cindy can stage as many phony photo-ops as she wants and it will go nowhere fast. It's all hurricane all the time now, and Cindy has had her last hurrah. Cindy has been totally replaced by Katrina. End of coverage of her caravan to D.C. No one will be watching or listening to her anymore as hurricane coverage will be constant now for probably the forseeable future, and the Roberts Supreme Court nomination will kick in and that combined with Katrina will wipe Cindy off the photo-op map. Can't think of a better person for this to happen to. Won't have to see her ugliness, which is a good thing.

I totally agree. Wonder if she realizes it yet. Pretty sad it took such devastation to do it though.

Bump for folks (like me) who missed this the first time.
