Sheehan Considers Challenge to Pelosi

CRAWFORD, Texas - Cindy Sheehan, the soldier's mother who galvanized the anti-war movement, said Sunday that she plans to run against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi unless she introduces articles of impeachment against President Bush in the next two weeks.

Sheehan said she will run against the San Francisco Democrat in 2008 as an independent if Pelosi does not seek by July 23 to impeach Bush. That's when Sheehan and her supporters are to arrive in Washington, D.C., after a 13-day caravan and walking tour starting next week from the group's war protest site near Bush's Crawford ranch.

"Democrats and Americans feel betrayed by the Democratic leadership," Sheehan told The Associated Press. "We hired them to bring an end to the war. I'm not too far from San Francisco, so it wouldn't be too big of a move for me. I would give her a run for her money."

Messages left with Pelosi's staff were not immediately returned.

I think Ms. Sheehan has been too busy being used by antiwar leftists and America-hating Marxists. She needs to go home and mourn for her son—and then get angry at those who used her.

She very publicly stated she was doing that exact thing two weeks ago. She was going to return to a private life.

Miz Sheehan loves the spotlight too much. As a mom myself, I do't want to judge her, but it seems to me like she's a vulture on his grave.

She should respect her son and his choices in life. He was an adult patriot and she is spitting on him. Vile woman.

If for whatever reason Pelosi did lose her House seat (and Dems retained control), she would almost certainly be challenged for the speakership if she sought to retain it — and the odds would be against her.

Not only is she unfit to serve the people, she is unfit to be a part of the human species.

Yes, but if she goes to San Francisco, she won't be a danger to humans.

Be nice now. Cindy is suffering from PMS, and it is called PMS because Mad Cow was already taken!

I thought she said she was hanging it up. So much for that.

The area is outside Pelosi's district, but there are no residency requirements for congressional members, according to the California secretary of state's office.

Huh? I'm no expert but I'd be surprised if this is true.

Hey, if she ran as an independent she might suck enough votes away from Pelosi to actually let a Republican like McClintock win that House seat.

Run, Cindy, run !
