Cindy Sheehan returns to Crawford, TX to stay
2006-08-07
Peace activist Cindy Sheehan is returning to Crawford, TX for her second summer in hopes of meeting with President Bush - and this time she's staying. Sheehan recently purchased five acres near the presidential ranch with insurance money she received after her oldest son, Casey, died fighting in Iraq in 2004.

“Sheehan recently purchased five acres near the presidential ranch with insurance money she received after her oldest son, Casey, died fighting in Iraq...”
Cindy also says she will march towards the President's ranch to the roadblocks manned by the Secret Service. She believes during the next few weeks, other protesters will join the other fifty already camped out in the soaring temperatures. "We needed to either rent a bigger property or buy something," explains Sheehan, "and we were having trouble finding something to rent. So, I decided to buy something. And when we don't need Camp Casey anymore, when the troops are home, and after we use it as a peace camp, I'm going to donate the property to the town of Crawford to use as a park."

#7  At 324 miles, she's going to have a long-ass drive to the nearest Jamba Juice, I'm afraid.

Thanks anyway Cin...you keep it. It would cost too much in industrial disinfectant and salt to make it inhabitable again.

#3  Is Cindy an activist for peace or impotence? I suspect she would be better suited to the latter....

#2  The really sad part of this -- for those of us who live in the area -- well, we get too much coverage of the minute to minute happenings than I really want to process through my brain.

But the other side? Look to the skies. Lots and lots of those jet contrails showing up. They just seem to suddenly begin to appear, and I smile, knowing W is in town... and we got some folks above, keeping eyes open. I smile and from inside my car, wave to them and send a silent "Thank you, glad you are in the neighborhood. You want a glass of ice tea?"

#1  Here's hoping that Fred never runs out of hotties for the morning paper and resorts to THIS....
