:-) Eric Pfeiffer of NRO's the Buzz is down in Crawford and is doing a wonderful job photographing and documenting the growing support for our troops and our President.

It isn't over yet...Byron York is telling Brit about who is behind Cindy and funding her...

SHE is only going on the stupid bus tour for 2 Days....

Did ya'll see the footage of her telling the crowd on Saturday, that "when the history books are written about this, you will be able to tell your grandchildren that you met Casey Sheehan's mother!!!!"

Can you believe what she just said in that statement???? She is making herself the "rock star"...AND assuming that this bit of MEDIA MAYHEM is going to put her in history books!!!!

Boy, does SHE need to be taken down about a dozen pegs!

washington and all over the world. And she and a number of other ago visits go down with cindy sheehan at the first. And over the last few weeks she has been supported by a number of groups, including move on code pink, women's antI-war group. Now, on this bus tour she is taking, she will only be on a couple of dayS. Brit: This is supposed to be a nationwide bus tour.
>> Right. Brit: Is this something that she started? Or that she organized? Is this somebody else's tour?

>> The destination is the anti-war demonstration in washington on september 24. She is leaving crawford on wednesday. Brit: On a bus.

>> But only a couple of dayS. She will go from crawford to houston where thee they have a protest outside of tom delay's office. Then she goes off and does over things. She has personal and speaking commitments. Cindy is gone, but the tour goes on. That is operated, that is wholly military family groups. Four groups are supporting her, gold star families for peace. Brit: Did she start that group?

>> Yes. Separate from the gold star mother's group which is the nonpartisan group. Military families speak out. A couple of veteran's groups, veteran's for peace, and another group. Brit: What about all of these groups? Do these groups, you mention that this less lee woman is a veteran of protests, some violent. That doesn't mean -- or does it -- that she favors or supports violence?

>> She is an advocate of direct action and spoke at various times that different situations require different tactics. She once said nonviolence is a strategy, civil disobedience is a tactic, direct action is a strategy. She favors doing what she feels is necessary. Brit: Invieweding violence?

>> Occasionally. There were incident in the past, and a lot in seattle. Remember, the protesters threatened to shut down the city of washington for the global trade meeting here, and the police chief in washington decided to shut down the city ahead of time anyway. She is just one of a number of groups. The interesting thing about this, is this is not a kind of movement in which there is a single person funding it or doing it. There are a bunch of groups doing it and there is no single person in charge. Brit: What kind of groups are they? Besides the fact they are against the war, i mean they showed up with cindy sheehan, or she went down there on her own and they joined her. Were they in on it from the beginning?

>> Some were from the beginning this is an internet-fueled things as well. Move on do the org got going, and theres were interest from there. It was a grassroots things that a number of groups like move on, like code pink and others, they managed to get peoplE. Now they --

>> Who -- brit: Who hired fentoN.

>> It was paid for by a group, true majority. One founded by ben cohen. Brit: A noted liberal activist, but nonviolent.

>> He contributed a lot of money. And they represented move on and other groups on the left. Brit: We turn for a moment to the protest we saw over the weekend in which we heard some, for the first time really, i guess, some voices in texas, in crawford, where they were arguing in favor of the war and supporting the president. This is a group sponsored by a group called move america forward. What are they?

>> They are a conservative group in california, started and funded by a man who is a former, I believe, state representative there. There is also a radio personality, conservative talk show host who is prominent. It is not a big group and there haven't been, in the reaction to cindy sheehan, there has not been this wide coalition of groups on the right that we saw on the left with sheehan. Brit: At the moment, cindy sheehan's operation, joined as it is by anti-bush forces remains a larger force in this country than anything that has emerged on the right?

>> The move forward turned a number of people out. The test of strength will be the protest on september 24 in washington, which is supposed to be quite big. Brit:, Thank you very much. Glad to have you. We have to take a break to give our sponsors time. When we come back, remarks about john roberts made <

Patience. He was asking the right questions. York says that MAF is not a large group, but turned out a large group and that the Sept 24th thing in D.C. will be the test. Looks like we have our work cut out for us. All conservative groups must join together on this one.

Basically Brit exposed the liberal/hate and sometimes violent groups behind the Sheehan machine (the usual suspects) and gave some exposure to MoveAmericaForward.com

who is "behind" Cindy Sheehan machine

I have been asking this since the beginning! This took a lot of planning and financing from the git/go. She did NOT just hop on a bus and pick up supporters on the way. There has to be a paper/money trail!!! And the people of Crawford should sue,sue,sue for loss of revenue, municipal infractions etc.

Plus, this woman pledges to not pay federal taxes. And she's not in prison yet? Puh-leze!

LOL! Some other poor slob can have your exwife, I'm not that kind of gal. But what he was saying was a) that Cindy Sheehan's bus tour is only two days with Cindy and then others will carry on in her place and b) that the supporters of President Bush are growing more vocal. There were repeated clips of pro-Bush demonstrators saying that Cindy Sheehan does not speak for them or for most Americans.

Then he spent time with Byron York about the BIG money that is behind her -- I didn't catch the name of the woman who will "carry on' but she was behind the violent WTO demonstrations and is an advocate of "direct action" (read be a violent thug to coerce compliance. Nice lady, huh?)

I was flabbergasted...I didn't think that even Cindy would say something THAT self-serving or idiotic!

BTW, Al Sharpton and his driver got stopped by the Texas Highway Patrol going 110 MPH heading from Crawford to D/FW!

They impounded the car, and Sharpton and driver said they would walk, rather than have the HP take them somewhere!

LOLOLOL
