Cindy Sheehan, self-described mother to the world and anti-American activist, has had a pang of PR-conscience and rejected plans for a protest in her honor at an American military hospital in Landsthul, Germany when she travels to Europe next month.
Obviously well aware of the black eye the antiwar movement recieved by protesting outside Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C., Sheehan has urged protesters to not target soldiers with their demonstrations.
Sheehan wrote in her latest missive on leftists blogs:
"In the frenzy and excitement of my trip to France and Germany, some well meaning pacifists in the area have scheduled me to set up a Camp Casey outside of Landsthul, Germany, in front of the military hospital. I won't agree to do that."
She further said, "The Camp Casey in Germany could be moved to a place where people with decision making power can see it. The soldiers have very little to say in their fates after they enlist (which is an entirely different subject) but especially the ones who have already been wounded in the service of their country…no matter how evil and greed-serving the phony mission is."
Sheehan concluded her plea to not protest soldiers by saying, "Let's leave our soldiers out of our protests. They have been put through so much by their commander in chief and his callous cronies already."
Sheehan urges her supporters to set up Camp Casey's in front of Karl Rove's home in D.C. and recruiting centers, and at more traditional and non-controversial locations such as Congressional offices, the White House and embassies.
Sheehan fails to make the connection that soldiers who work at recruiting centers would be the targets of such protests, but then again we don't expect much in the way of common sense from her.
Link Sheehan's latest missive.
She cancels her Germany trip to join The Storm The White House Bunch.
I hope they tazer her ass as she climbing over the White House Fence.
Does anyone know who finances Cindys excursions? or is she mooching off the $250K she got from Caseys death.

So if you got deep pockets, we are going to hit you hard. If you are a student we expect you to embarass your university until they shell out the money. LOL

That about covers it. It's almost as funny as the application tot he socialist party which is scaled on your income.
"Sheehan concluded her plea to not protest soldiers by saying, 'Let's leave our soldiers out of our protests. They have been put through so much by their commander in chief and his callous cronies already.'"
So, this means there will be no more Arlington West, etc.
When they met with Feinstein:
"...Alviso says Feinstein is unwilling to support an immediate troop withdrawal..."
Too bad Feinstein didn't say Why.
FANDAMTASTIC!
Maybe she's starting to realize that soldiers...have guns. Big ones, at that.
Is that really a quote from him? Maybe she is not (completely) crazy?
