Cindy Sheehan: Day 5

(Posted at The Seattle Post-Intelligencer: David Horsey)

I'm sure you all know what the cartoon is referring to... though if you don't, it's not surprising. As usual network news is more interested in covering whether Paula Abdul is going to return to American Idol than
this.

Cindy Sheehan, the mother of a soldier killed in Iraq, has camped outside Bush's Crawford, Texas "Ranch Set." Of course, she was quarantined in a "Free Speech Zone" about three miles away from the "Ranch," and is under police surveialance because she and a her companions represent a "national security threat."

Must be nice to pull "national security threat" out whenever someone disagrees with you... I'll bet Woodrow Wilson would have loved to be able to play that card during the Women's Suffrage movement.

This is going to get messier and messier... not that you'll hear a thing about it on CNN or Fox news. Keep an eye on this page...

If you want to support Cindy Sheehan, here's a web site with information.
