War protestors release balloons with notes inside (Sheehan)

Since anti-war protestors outside President Bush's Crawford Ranch have been unsuccessful in their attempts to talk directly with the president, today they wrote letters to him, placed the notes inside helium-filled balloons and released them.

They hope the balloons will end up on the president's property, and he will read the notes.

The stalking continues.....

Sounds like a good time to take up target shooting.

Stupid liberal idiots. They're so starved for attention. Ignore the fools.

I'd suggest some lemonade, a 20 gauge with 8 shot and a modified choke.

[King Moonracer]

So by that logic, where could we leave messages for Hillary Clinton?..... Lebian porno magazines???

I thought it was illegal to release balloons. Environmentally dangerous for wildlife don't you know.

This one time, like eight months ago, I saw two guys kissing in a park. And that was the gayest thing I'd ever seen, until I saw this stunt.

"Environmentally dangerous for wildlife don't you know."

Yes. PETA will soon be concerned about the armadillos with high voices.

To any and all residents of Crawford: file a littering complaint with local law enforcement cite Sheehan once for each balloon that comes to rest on your property or on town/county/state property that you witness.

Out of options, shame, and common sense, Cindy Al-Shehadi resorts to littering for peace..

[Constitution Day]

Ticket them for littering!

Up Up and Away In My Beautiful Balloon!

I would think it is illegal to launch items onto someone else's private property even if it is a lame attempt.

[Fairview]

They hope the balloons will end up on the president's property, and he will read the notes.

Just as realistic as most liberal ideas.

[Darnright]

But, but, I thought these people were Environmentally Conscious©!!! Everyone knows that releasing helium balloons harms innocent creatures who might eat them and DIE!!!!

I just can't believe Cindy and her friends would ever do such a thing.
< sarcasm off>

Hey, those aren't balloons; they're used condoms!

Cindy's other activity of the day....


Peace activist Cindy Sheehan, a vocal opponent of President George W. Bush and the war in Iraq that claimed the life of her son, fills out a voter registration card Tuesday at the Crawford post office. In the background is a photo of President Bush and the Crawford seal. Sheehan, who recently bought property in Crawford, is spending this August much as she spent August 2005 - protesting the president's Middle East policies.

I thought the envirowackos were opposed to balloons being released into the sky?

[pgyanke]

One of the most pathetic displays since her last one...

[TNCMAXQ]

It doesn't say how many of these loons are out there "protesting." For all we know it could be Cindy and 2 other people. In any case, it is pretty sad these people who are so filled with guilt for being Americans, continue to get news coverage as if they are a legitimate force.
