Cindy Who?

Mother Sheehan's Book Signing

Sometimes several pictures are worth several thousand words:

"Anti-war" activist Cindy Sheehan waits for people to show up at her book signing near President Bush's ranch on Saturday, Nov. 26, 2005 in Crawford, Texas.

Frankly I'm amazed the DNC/AP allowed these photos to see the light of day.

Usually their photogs do their (unlevel) best to angle their cameras and crop their pictures to make Mother Sheehan always appear to be at the center of a worshipful swarm.

I'm afraid someone is going to be in hot water for letting us glimpse the truth.

Update! As if to drive home my point, this is the photo from this series that Reuters decided to run with:

Again, note the bizarre angle and the severe cropping. In Hollywood this used to be called "protecting your star."

As soon as Sheehan lost her use to the Lunatic Left, they dropped her like a poor cousin. "Simulated sorry about that, Cindy!"

"Cindy Sheehan is deep in thought as she prepares to audition for the role of Peppermint Pattie in the upcoming live-action 'Peanuts' film."

There's so little to report that this month-old non-event was considered news?

To TwithanH, this is called "desecration of the flag"

Cousin "It" was on C-SPAN Christmas day at a Berkeley bookstore. The camera panned the audience. It was a pathetic group of about twenty aging lefties on social security. One of those times you're glad you don't have what Emeril Lagasse calls "smell-a-vision".

A radio report made me think she is back at Crawford now.

have you folks bought the " Year End Stories " from that Slimes mag??

They have a Pic of Little Cindy--and a BUILD UP of her bio. THEN... their discription of HER just STOPS. And then the VERY NEXT sentence says," Over 150,000 people march in D.C. to end the war."

Number ONE--there was NOT "150,000" in DC--I know--I was there! and

Number TWO--theose sad 19 years olds who were bused in for free--to hear a FREE CONCERT!--and those 8% others: the 60's Hippies and libbie Communist professors where there to aggrandize and justify to themsleves their sad existence----

--it had NOTHING to do with Cry baby Cindy AT ALL!

God Bless and Rest her poor son.

Darth AirBorne

p.s.--do yourselves a favor and DON'T read that " Slimes year in Review--unless of course you haven't eaten yet--it's the same old dribble with not ONE GOOD THING being said about the U.S.!--not that THAT doesn't surprise me either!

GOD BLESS AMERICA!! President George Bush!! Our Brave & Noble Troops !! and all thsoe who are on the right side on history !! ( namely the Conservatives in America!)
