KEY POINT: Notice that it's a "ROLLING FAST", i.e. they only fast for ONE DAY. Only the MSM can call this a hunger strike.

I bet if we really looked into it, we would find that they have breakfast, then they "fast" until dinner.

Where is the MSM great "investigative" ability that they don't point out that a one day fast is NOT a hunger strike?!

Remember the big hoopla that Saddam was going on hunger strike, then it turned out he missed ONE meal ( or was it his afternoon snack)?

You know, I really don't eat breakfast much these days. I usually wait for an early lunch.

I had no idea that I've been a heroic political activist all this time!

Bunch of sissies. I fasted for a month once. It says in The Bible not to tell folks while you're doing it, but it doesn't say you can't talk about it later. I was seeking answers. I got them.

I'm not a prophet, but I will predict that the Sheehan gang won't get whatever it is they want.

From the book of Matthew:

Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face; That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.

They are making a joke of what hunger strike is suppose to be about

One day IS NOT A HUNGER STRIKE

Just think, they can lose some weight and help feed some starving Africans. But for one day? Meaningless minions of a useless persuasion.

Sean Penn and Willie Nelson

Willie Nelson, now there's a real moral barometer. Doesn't he have about 500 kids that he doesn't take care of? Pwah.

I really wish Willie would stick to singing. Oh well, he will probably get the munchies round bout 10 tonight.

Put out a news release!

Every night thousands of Freepers are going on a seven hour fast. Only at dawn will we break this fast.

This is being done to show support for America, President Bush and his leadership in Iraq and in support of American troops around the world, and last, but not least, to highlight how stupid the liberals "rolling fast" is.

For me, Cindy is missing an opportunity. There really is no reason to share the glory with all these other wannabe's. Cindy should just bask in the glory of herself and do a ten year hunger strike. Nothing to eat ever. That would be much more effective.

I thought I heard Rush say they fast eight hours and then turn it over to someone else.

Boy, a day... they're going to really suffer.

Soldiers give untold sacrifice, sometimes including their lives (Cindy, Remember your son?). And this is the best that these useless goons can muster?

Remind me why anyone might take any of these people seriously.

These people might as well say they are wiping their ass with their left hand in protest against the war... or maybe only using two ply as opposed to three ply. Yes, this is very serious stuff so don't kid yourselves!
