Cindy Sheehan said she will be part of the live audience during the president's State of the Union speech to congress Tuesday.
Bay Area Congresswoman Lynn Woosley gave anti-war activist a gallery pass late Tuesday, just hours before the planned State of the Union speech. Sheehan was in Washington to protest the president during his national address, but then came word she was invited to see the speech live.
A spokesman for Sheehan says she decided to accept the invitation two hours prior to the speech. The spokesman also said that Sheehan will be respectful and listen to the address because she is a guest of a member of congress.
Sheehan is expected to fly back to Berkeley Wednesday. She announced over the weekend that she is considering running for Senate against Sen. Dianne Feinstein.
I seriously doubt it is from her son's SGLI.
And where is the money going to come from to run against Feinswine?
Freakin' commie tool!
The serial bloviaters who masquerade as journalists on cable television have added their two cents to the show-business erosion of the State of the Union as a serious matter. Reaction shots of lawmakers provide endless fodder for issue-starved commentators. Let Sen. Hillary Clinton wince on camera at any point during Tuesday night, and slow-motion replays of her grimace will dominate a news cycle -- whether she was unhappy with the speech or just suffering a bit of indigestion.
why don't you move?
She's a loose cannon and should not be allowed into this speech. It's too important and Cindy could really disrupt it. I don't trust her to keep her mouth shut. The whole world will be watching, and I think the temptation will be too great for that simple minded woman to pass. It would be the perfect time to blast President Bush on the war in Iraq.
I'd donate to her run against Feinstein. Pure entertainment value.
She will try to upstage the pres...Might as well let Osama in ..They should keep her out and screw what the PRESS says tomorrow about her freedom ..I can't get in , that's for sure. But that piece of garbage Sheehan can..No way ..Throw her ass in jail for the duration of the speech ..
Respectful? Since when.
She's just brazen enough to wear some sort of a protest type Tee-Shirt.
This sure seems like a security risk to me. I hope she's frisked really well before they let her in.
Hugo Himself, too, it was reported by AFP. He's got a big checkbook.
I can't explain my reaction to this. As you know, typically I laugh stuff like this off, but I'm so angry about this.
We don't pay these SOBs in congress to play games like little children. This is such foolishness and so unbecoming even a foolish Democrat. It's just childish.
This is like some teenager taking the guy her ex-boyfriend hates to the prom just to show him up. It's childish game-playing.
I'm sick of them. They use our tax dollars to fly to Switzerland for summits on Muslims, they live it up with foreign excursions, better-than-anyone-else-gets healthcare plans, large salaries and staff flunkies to lick the lint out from between their toes.
And then they play games like this. Doesn't this fool Woosley know we're at war?!
I despise politicians.
/rant (maybe)
Yes , she WILL make a scene , gaurenteed , this is a disgrace. I hope Bush's people have the balls to keep her out. She will turn this into a farce .We ALL know that , it's a no brainer.
I'm sure President Bush is already prepared for an outburst from her ... anyone wanna bet that we get a nifty and memorable quote tonight from him if she does?
She will scream out her declaration of love while tearing off her clothes.
Don’t anyone say you weren’t warned.
I've said it before and I plan to keep saying it whenever it comes up. Let's hope Cindy can be more attentive to the needs of her constituents than she is to the needs of her surviving children. If, God forbid, she should run and win.
Remember them, Cindy, your surviving children?
I have George Miller, that fact keeps me in fervent prayer.
