"The places where she is speaking are not the ones with the fat back accounts. And you can bet she is the Code Pink number one gravy train right now. I don't think there is much money left over. The $30,000 per speaking engagement is probably a fantasy amount."
You don't know what you are talking about.
$30,000 is not a high fee for an A List speaker, and Mother Sheehan is a hot commodity in leftwing circles.
Hell, even tiny state university ponied up $11,000 for her to speak:

Even Kos couldn't afford her for their convention, and had to try to get some eBayer to pay for her to speak for them:

If you think she isn't making a fortune off of this (and that isn't part of her motivation) you are misinformed.
There was a fund raiser at the Grand Lake Theater where the causes were Code Pink, Global Exchange and Cindy. The first two are both Medea Benjamin groups, so I get the split went $2 for Medea, $1 for Cindy, $2 for Medea, $1 for Cindy...if she were lucky.
