Famed war protester and fashion icon Cindy Sheehan
Poor Cindy Sheehan. She was the liberal media darling when she protested all of George Bush’s supposed misdeeds. But now that she’s protesting Barack Obama’s war machine, the daft old dear is finding reporters and news cameras in very short supply.
Cindy Sheehan is about to start another anti-war camp. This one will be in Washington, and it could conceivably last for months. The problem?
“I’m kind of over the whole camping thing,” she admits.
It’s a fair enough statement for Sheehan, who gained international attention in 2005 for “Camp Casey,” a five-week protest outside of then-President George W. Bush’s Crawford, Texas, ranch during which she demanded a meeting with the commander in chief to hear an explanation for her son Casey’s death in Iraq. She spent most of that time in a ditch on the side of a road leading to the president’s grounds.
Five years and a new president later, however, Sheehan will be sleeping under the stars again, and for the same cause. Her new coalition, Peace of the Action, is launching the Camp OUT NOW! tent city at the base of the Washington Monument next week in an effort to get President Barack Obama to pull troops out of Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan immediately. (Sheehan concedes that this time around, she will rent a bedroom in which to store her belongings, take showers and occasionally sleep.)
She’s protesting Barack Obama? We’ll watch for all those engrossing Cindy Sheehan updates that are sure to air on the nightly news.

LOL she is going to rent a bedroom and all of that is nice. Just give it up lady. I am sorry for your lost, but I think it was your child’s choice to go to war no one made him, there is no draft and he knew the consequences of war. Sometimes you make it, sometimes you do not. You should be proud of his choice and of his sacrifice. You are not doing his memory any justice by acting like a fool now and then. You were used back then by the democrats and now you are going to be abused by them.

I feel badly for Cindy Sheehan. She lost a son in war. I don’t think that is any excuse to behave irrationally, as she did. She is a tragic figure.

her son chose his job, and knew the risk, she, nor anyone else had to power to stop his free will. by doing this, she is only dishonoring his sacrifice
