What happened to Crazy Cindy’s usual 20-person juggernaut of support?

Budget cuts?

I hope people get a clue from this what party represents goofballs like this.

I am embarrassed that they call themselves US citizens. No wonder our enemies think we are in decline.

Silly old women running around with fat rolls draped in pink with crowns on their greasy hair, screaming like asylum inhabitants.

Gawd almighty.

They should throw her in the brig and throw away the key.

Nothing says “Vote for future Congresswoman Sheehan” like an arrest record.

I'm guessing that George Soros is paying her bail.

Put to lie the movie Pretty in Pink.

What? You aren't familiar with anti-war & code pink activist "Midge" Potts.

Had his 15 mins. of fame during the Valerie Plame hearing.

Man they all should be arrested merely for wearing pink princess crowns! That in itself deserves time behind bars.

[dangerdoc]

Cough, cough, cough, TASER, cough, cough.

She would have been IN the hearing room if she wasn’t running against Pelosi and attacking Hillary.

Now she has to get arrested out in the halls like the regular riff-raff.

But I understood there were some of these code-pink people IN the hearing that were removed.

[EggsAckley]

I guess that was during one of my “avoid the media” periods. I have to do that frequently just to keep from going insane.

So it IS a man. Yeeeshh.
