Cindy Sheehan Booed At The Rose Bowl Parade Now that Cindy has turned on the Democrats, she’s not exactly a favorite of the liberals. And the liberals in Pasadena certainly made that much evident with the reception they gave Cindy’s entry in the Rose Bowl Parade Dozens of anti-war protesters led by “Peace Mom” Cindy Sheehan staked out spots across from television cameras, hoisting signs reading “Impeachment is Patriotic.” After the procession’s last float inched out to start along the parade’s 5 1/2-mile route, a group of more than 100 anti-war protesters marched behind it, including Sheehan. Parade watchers sitting in the grandstand booed and yelled at the protesters “This is not the occasion for this,” Mary Feichtel, 63, of Florida, said of the protests Sheehan spoke later to a gathering of protesters at Pasadena City Hall. It’s worth noting that Cindy was never much more than a useful idiot for mainstream Democrats (and their mouthpieces in the media). When she was busy harping on President Bush they were quick to paint a picture of her as a grieving mother and citizen who had absolute moral authority on the war and wanted answers from her President. But now that Cindy has turned her criticism on the Democrats themselves, they’ve been quick to turn on her It’s the cynical truth. When things were bleak in Iraq, and the Democrats were campaigning on the war as a failure, they were quick to latch on to her rhetoric about a criminal President and his murderous policies. But now with things in Iraq looking brighter, and the Dems even looking to distance themselves from the issue, she might as well be the plague
Twenty-three people were arrested by Tuesday afternoon, including one protester, Pasadena Police Department Lt. Keith Jones said. Jones said the protester was “arrested for holding up a sign that blocked other patrons view of the parade.”
The Libs will kick a sick dog in the face, as we have seen.
Missed this; did anyone catch video of this?
From the pictures posted on FR on another thread, Cindy came straight from the Krispy Kreme Bowl.
I was disgusted to see political signs at the Rose Parade. There is nothing in this country that isn’t political for the rabid left.
I would kick her too.
No one from Pasadena goes to the Rose Bowl Parade. More likely she was booed by Conservatives visiting from back East.
I want the networks to show Sheehan more than Hillary. She’s the new face of the democrats.

Cindy’s the one in the black shirt, white hat, and sunglasses. Looks like she’s put on a few pounds...
Someone should have sold tomatoes to the folks in the stands.
People from all over LA County go to the parade, so its likely she was booed by local conservatives.
Rebound weight gain from the protest fast that lasted 1/2 day.
Definitely one of the funniest websites and product lines out there!
“Someone should have sold tomatoes to the folks in the stands.”
Looks like she ate ‘em all.
What happened to her campaign for Congress against Peelousy? is that still on? I’d love to see her run and do well, if only to annoyu Dimmycraps.
Cindy Sheehan Booed At My Computer...
So I slapped her...

“And the liberals in Pasadena certainly made that much evident with the reception they gave Cindy’s entry in the Rose Bowl Parade”
I was addressing this passage EGD. But I agree with you. In the years I lived in SoCal, I took relatives from back East to the parade but there were plenty of locals there. They were too nice to be liberals.
