Trendy commemorative tattoo: $75

Fancy Designer Sandals: $234

Exploiting your son's noble death to become the left-wing flavor of the month: Priceless.

[Callahan]

Those MBT sandals cost $234 a pair. Not bad for someone who lost their job to become Grand Drag Queen of the Kook Klux Klan. Seems like the socialist thing to do would be to buy a decent pair of $35 sandals and donate the rest to the victims of the Bush War Machine, but if a woman is going to protest in front of TV cameras she better look good doing it.

[Callahan]

Did I say $234? I meant $235. Soros has the same model, except his have gold leaf on the soles.

Pricey or not, they're UGLY shoes.

Pricey or not, they're UGLY shoes.

Well they go with her face then, don't they?

[onyx]

LOL, yep and her demeanor and her speech...lol.

[PeoplesRepublicOfWashington]

And the sandals are too small for her to boot.

[Ditter]

All the better for the fire ants to bite her feet and legs.

[Callahan]

I know it's petty to pick on Mother's shoes, but they are so California faux hippy.

Here's the poop about the sandals, from http://www.swissmasaius.com:

"Inspired by the Masai Tribe, MBT (Masai Barefoot Technology) is a range of footwear which reestablishes our natural conditions of standing and walking. Establishing these natural conditions with MBT offers high potential for health, beauty, sports, fitness, and therapeutic applications."

(Uh... the sandals' "high potential for beauty" ain't working for Cindy.)

[Callahan]

Almost forgot. Mother doesn't pay taxes. No wonder she can blow a couple hundred box on a pair of ugly sandals to wear to the PBS to the well-heeled Grief-palooza.

[onyx]

She is such a cow -- I'm always expecting her to MOO.

[Callahan]

I smell an endorsement contract:

"Hi I'm Cindy Sheehan. You may remember me from such expressions as 'sad face,' 'Sadder Still' and 'Forlorn & Weary Look #32.' As a non-tax-paying professional protester, I spend alot of time on my feet. That's why I wear MBT Griefmaster II's with a custom hemp accent strap. If you're gonna exploit your son's death on TV--do it in style!!!"

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She's one of those MasterCard Marxists who hates capitalism but doesn't mind living in a nice comfortable house, wearing comfortable shoes and probably enjoys a bottle of chardonnay from time to time.

Hypocrites and scum.

Gee whiz, I don't think that I have EVER seen a picture of any Masai wearing shoes or sandals that look like that.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Typical left-winged rabblerousing footwear. She must put an aura on the the faces of the dope-smoking, maggot infested weirdos everytime she shops at the local commune.

[BigSkyFreeper]

I never did tell the author of that pic when I had a chance, that it should be "Woe Is Me!" LOL :P

[onyx]

MOOOOOOOO. LOL.

Her footwear is on par with that sockless goober...lol.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Oddly enough, I was just thinking "sockless goober"! LMAO!
