Is Cindy jealous of Katrina? Of Rita?

Someone identified as "Cindy Sheehan," the newly arrested Peace Mom, is vexed that Hurricane Rita stole Cindy's thunder. That was after Rita bumped Katrina out of the way.

Rita's wet, windy weekend tantrum on the Gulf Coast, in fact, so seduced the newspapers and television networks that Cindy's splashy anti-war protests in Washington were bumped out of the biggest, blackest headlines.

Cindy Sheehan was robbed. I want more Cindy Sheehan coverage now!

The description by "Cindy Sheehan" of the Category 4 hurricane as "little" set off a squall of its own. One soaked East Texas resident shot back a reply to Daily Kos: "You bask in your fan's adulation, party with your celebrity friends and play the star. Shame on you, you're jealous of others' suffering. You've become a caricature, and I no longer support you."

Fox News Radio host Tony Snow explored the implications yesterday, as did syndicated columnist Michelle Malkin, who described the comment as a "temper tantrum." At the FreeRepublic.com site, popular with conservatives, a visitor observed: "Ms. Sheehan, your 15 minutes are up."

There are signs, in fact, that Mrs. Sheehan's celebrity, which waxed through the summer news doldrums, might be waning. The substantial book and movie deals that she expected after her well-chronicled peace vigil in the name of her son Army Spc. Casey Sheehan, who was killed in Iraq on April 4, 2004, apparently have not been sealed.

LOL!

Cindy really needs to take the hint that her hot air is nothing compared to mother nature's

But was "Cindy Sheehan" actually Cindy Sheehan?

"I am very certain she did not post it," says Morrigan Phillips, a spokesman (Mrs. Sheehan has three) who has taken questions for Mrs. Sheehan on her cross-country protest tour. "She was pretty busy on Saturday."

Yeah. Never mind that Kos requires you to log in, and the post was made with her account. Just like with those anti-Semitic postings she made to Usenet, somebody must have haxx0red her.

She needs to be reminded that suicide can be a great publicity move.

LOL! You're baaaaad.

[Loud Mime]

I think that the liberals will demand a recount of the storm intensity

[smoothsailing]

Thanks for clearing that up!

I think it was Brit Hume who pointed out that she apologized for posting to Kos, although her "spokesman" was certain she didn't post at all!

Their little world is falling apart,my guess is her handlers wil dump her soon.

I can't see the pic,it's just a clear square.

[writer33]

I'm not worried about the friendly fire. Most people know from my satires that I'm full of it. :)

[smoothsailing]

ROFLOL! I can see it now! My puter has been acting flaky today for some reason. ;o)

Good point. She had 10,000 bodies there and there were only 500 or so looters in New Orleans, as well as the downgrading of the Rita storm. The mainstream media completely lost focus. Excellent point, LM. :)

Fascist! :)

Good one, ss.

Not unless someone stole her password

Because Cindy has been posting on that site long before sitting in the ditch in Crawford

[JulieRNR21]

Since Cindy recently attacked Queen Hillary......her days as the media's darling are numbered.

Her Heinous will make sure of that!

That's what I thought,Thanks! ;)
