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.
Agreed. She and her t-shirt should be escorted out.
Well isn't this interesting.
Shrillery and Shrindy, both on the TV screen in one night.
Talk about nightmare material.
I'm not sure where you got the idea Half of Americans support Cindy Sheehan's rhetoric, but would like you to back that up. Last I checked a Majority of Americans reject anti-semitism, cozying up to Chavez and the statement Bush is worse than Osama.

Pro-Israel resolution
"You might think it was a popular resolution, but you're wrong," said the Petaluma Democrat of House Resolution 294, which passed with 399-5 on June 30. Woolsey was the only Bay Area representative to cast a "no" vote, though some others abstained or merely voted "present."
The resolution condemned the terrorist killings of 22 Israelis since Palestinian Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas pledged an end to violence at the June 4 Aqaba summit.
It expressed "solidarity with the Israeli people as they respond to ongoing terror attacks," called for states to end ties with "Palestinian and other terrorist groups" and urged aid to the Palestinian Authority in quelling terrorism and assistance to the Palestinians in establishing a peaceful democracy.
The resolution expressed sympathy for "innocent Israelis and Palestinians who have lost their lives," and referred to Palestinians as "victims of terrorists, who undermine prospects for a lasting peace."
"I'm concerned that HR 294 won't advance the peace process that we all want. If we want to advance the process, we can't get caught up in assigning blame. We can't do that. The United States has to be an honest broker in this," she (Woolsey) said.
"I don't think we should be appearing to take sides."
Sheehag and ramsey clrck are on Cspan at the moment Blechhhh
cspan2
Somebody got a stun gun ready?
My kids call me momma drama queen. That would be a good name for Cindy. Thanks for the ping. I was going to take a nap but this is gonna be fun.
The ditch witch and the ugly witch. Perfect together.
I'm sure as hell hoping so...the more the better.
Ah, ignorance is bliss.
You are a glutton for punishment, no?
LawerNOrder for me till the SOTU begins.
She's a publicity whore. I don't think she'll be able to sit there and behave the whole time. She'll wear something or do something to bring attention to herself.
what a bad idea....
I hope she pops off and gets frog marched out by the police and I hope the camera catches all of it. LOL!
At that point, I want the cameras to switch over to the old standbys like Schumer, Rodham and Kennedy....there are some things I don't need to hve broadcast, because I happen to have Smellovision.
I hope she behaves herself. But if not, I would joyfully watch her getting herself hauled out of there.
I liked it when it was Teresa's time to speak at the Dem convention. Hillary wasn't too pleased with that nut hogging up the limelight.
I checked DU last night. A good number of them think she's nuts.
