The president's most vocal critic against the war in Iraq was in the Capitol City Wednesday night.

Cindy Sheehan was at BookPeople on Lamar & 6th Street signing autographs for her new book entitled "Peace Mom".

Sheehan's son, Casey Sheehan died while on patrol in Iraq on April 4th, 2005.

“Whether you agree with it or not I think we should all be reading books by the families of people who've loss their sons and daughters in this war,” said Turk Pipkin who was buying one of Sheehan’s books.

His mother bought a house in Crawford where she and her supporters often protests near President George Bush's ranch.

Here is hoping she wins. It will be the final nail in the coffin making the award the mockery it is. What would be truly hilarious is Clinton's reaction since he covets the award so much.

Unless she's talking about the 1957 Nobel Prize for Medicine for synthesizing pennicillin, the Nobel website hasn't heard of her.

Considering that she wanted to go back in time to kill GWB, I kind of doubt she will win.
Actually, that's going to help her win the prize.



I don't know, is crazy one of the categories for this award?

The Nobel Peace Prize. I no longer pay attention to who wins it and do not care. Useless piece of garbage.

I guess with Tookie out of the running, the committee was desperate for candidates.

not really.

There is a pool of nominees. It is rather large as any member of any parliament can nominate candidates.

George Bush has been nominated every year since 911.

She might well be. They've already given out one for the stated purpose of pocking a stick in President Bush's eye. Why not another?

I had a ham sandwich that was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize but I ate it. I figured it wasn't Liberal enough to win anyway.

Turk Pipkin?

I think he's that guy that sang that wacky song, "Gimme Dat Ding" back in the 60s.
