FORT WORTH, Texas: Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan will return to her protest site near President George W. Bush's Texas ranch this weekend to bid farewell to the peace movement.
Sheehan will sell some camping items, gather with friends from previous demonstrations and celebrate her 50th birthday in Crawford, about 100 miles (160 kilometers) south of Fort Worth. Then she will hand over the deed of her 5-acre (2-hectare) lot to its new owner, radio talk-show host Bree Walker.
"I'm feeling like it was the right decision for me. I feel like it was the best thing to do," Sheehan told The Associated Press on Tuesday by telephone en route to Texas.
She told the AP that she wanted to spend more time with her three children and that she wanted to change course.
Sheehan said Tuesday that she is asking people to join her in a 10-day walk from Atlanta to Washington, D.C., starting July 13 for a "people's accountability movement." On her blog, she said Bush's commuting the prison sentence of former vice presidential aide I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby was "the straw that broke my camel's back of exhausted ennui."
"I tried to remove myself from the political realm of the U.S., what BushCo is turning into an Evil Empire, but the blatant audacity of George commuting Scooter's sentence ... has dragged me kicking and screaming back in," she wrote.
Sheehan, who turns 50 next week, will sell camping equipment and other items from the site now known as "Camp Casey." Sheehan said she plans to keep some of the personal mementos, such as the large painting of her son.

Between this statement and Hill and Bill's little skit, do the Dems really want to start portraying themselves as mafia members?

650 miles in 10 days.
Probably walk a half mile through each town for the cameras, then drive to the next.
I've done my share of long-distance walking, and I sure wouldn't want to do Atlanta to DC in July.

If her “walk” is anything like her “fast” she’ll spend most of the day riding around in a John Edwards campaign bus and jump out in big towns just long enough to get her picture taken with the local moonbats..

There has to be a story here somewhere now where is it? Oh here it is “Cindy sends out inviations with RSVP to 50th Birthday Party no one accepts she then calls it a rummage sale” That march also sounds like a duzey that is roughly 62 miles a day DUH

http://www.oohrah.net/mw-photos.htm Took SGT Craig Breiner from 6 am to 9:30 pm to go the 47 miles across New Jersey from the Atlantic Ocean to the State House in Trenton. And he was one hurting puppie when he got there.
Can't wait to see how Cindy fleeches the flock on her non-alk walk, just like her patented "All You Can Eat Fast".
