Cindy Hates All The Attention, Says Impeachment's A Distraction

The Cindy news today is how much she hates the media circus, and how she is not pushing for impeachment.

Sheehan decries “media circus,” steers focus to anti-war message

G. Robert Hillman
The Dallas Morning News

CRAWFORD, Texas — Bothered by what she laments as mounting “distractions,” Cindy Sheehan sought yesterday to refocus her peace vigil near President Bush’s ranch on her central anti-war message.

Since she “came out here and sat down on a lawn chair” 10 days ago, Sheehan, 48, said it’s “got out of hand and just turned into a media circus.”

For instance, she cited calls for the president’s impeachment as “another distraction off of our original cause.

And yet, from Cindy’s own webpage:

This is the very bus that brought Cindy and her pals (from Veterans For Peace) to Crawford. Maybe she didn’t notice.

And yet, Cindy said it was her reason for going down to Crawford in the first place:

“People don’t just want to hear it, they want to know, what can we do? What can we do to get him out of power? And I’m gonna say the ‘I’ word. Impeach. And we have to have everybody impeached that lied to the American public, and that’s the executive branch, and any people in congress, and we gotta go all the way down and we might have to go all the way down to the person who picks up the dogshit in Washington…”

I think Cindy now doesn't want any distractions from her own amazing saga.

I wouldn't call clowns and geeks a 'circus.' It's a freakshow.

If Cindy Hates All The Attention, why is she on a gazillion TV and Radio Shows? Why not grieve in private, AT HOME.

So...she hates the media attention and all. Well, there's an easy fix, so I find it hard to believe that she really hates it so much, particularly when I see her face on almost every program pushing her despicable and disgusting anti-American agenda on the coffin of her loayal American son!

Like her only living son asked her to do just last week.

But she's got more important things to do than comfort her son.

If you hate the attention, Cindy, go home. You're what Lenin called a useful idiot.

Being stupid is one thing, but this lady is making Forrest Gump look like a phi beta kappa.

She's the Ditch Witch, oh
of Vacaville

I'm gonna tell you a story
strange as it now seems
of zombie moonbat DUmmies
and the Ditch Witch of Vacaville.
She lived in a world of cameras
Possessed by the liberals' skew
From a ditch near the Bush ranch
Called the Carey Camp,
Cindy stirred her left-wing spew.

Cindy Sheehan - Impeachment tour

Dear Friends and Supporters,

George Bush said speaking about the dreadful loss of life in Iraq in August: (08/03/05): "We have to honor the sacrifices of the fallen by completing the mission." "The families of the fallen can be assured that they died for a noble cause."

In reaction to these two assinine and hurtful statements, members of Gold Star Families for Peace (GSFP) are going to George’s vacation home in Crawford, Tx this Saturday, August 6th at 11:00 am to confront him on these two statements.

1) We want our loved ones sacrifices to be honored by bringing our nation’s sons and daughters home from the travesty that is Iraq IMMEDIATELY, since this war is based on horrendous lies and deceptions. Just because our children are dead, why would we want any more families to suffer the same pain and devastation that we are.

2) We would like for him to explain this "noble cause" to us and ask him why Jenna and Barbara are not in harm’s way, if the cause is so noble.

3) If George is not ready to send the twins, then he should bring our troops home immediately. We will demand a speedy withdrawal.

GSFP will be joined by members of Veteran’s for Peace (VFP), Military Families Speak Out (MFSO), Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW), Code Pink, and Crawford Peace House.

We GSFP members will not leave until we get answers from George Bush. We deserve and expect him to welcome us with answers to as why our loved ones are dead.

Every worker for peace, every worker for justice, every person who wants our country back are welcomed to join us on Saturday. Show George Bush that we mean business. Be there to support us family members who have already been through so much. We are fighting for our country, our world, especially the children.

Crawford is about 2 hours from Dallas where the VFP Convention is being held this weekend. There will be car pools from the convention.

HONOR OUR LOVED ONE’S SACRIFICES: BRING OUR TROOPS HOME NOW!!!!

Bring water and hats...we plan on staying until we are arrested or satisfied with the answers. (I am betting on jail).

Please pass this email on to your friends, lists, and media.

I will be in Dallas starting tomorrow evening.

To me, it looks like the media is making an insane individual into their mascot.

How appropriate.
