#1 "..We made $2000 for the peace house.”

Yawn.

#3 Sounds like someone needs the Stuart Smalley daily affirmation. $2000? WoW! Probably spent more on pitching the tent, lighting, and refreshments.

#4 If there was ever any question that the liberal press is nothing but a mouthpiece of the DNC, this sudden turn on Cindy Sheehan proves it.

Glenn Reynolds said said
"Funny, but not long after Rep. Murtha's outburst on the war, we're seeing a bipartisan consensus that a cut-and-run approach would be disastrous."

Hillary was given the blue light special on Drudge today, looking stately and with the caption: "finish the job". Liberman is touting all of his trips to Iraq and now sees "real progress".

The democrats have stuck their finger in the wind and decided they are now for the war, after they were against it.. after they were for it. Got that?

So now you will now see the WAPO, NYT, Reuters, etc, all simultaneously pulling the rug out from under their little Side-Show Cindy. No more rent a crowds compliments of Ben and Jerrys. And we even get to see Reuters photos that prove no one really likes her anyway.

That's why I won't vote Democrat for a long time, even though I don't think the republicans are a heck of a whole lot better. For the dhims, it's all about image and perception. The concept of conviction is unknown to them.

And if there is any question that they are going for an extreme makeover...here's an article from the Boise Statesman that gives a clue to how they will look when their new makeover is done. Dem's New Image No more wine-sipping, tree-hugging, hybrid driving ...the new dems are gun-totin', huntin', truck driving, mountain men.

Watch out gays...you're next to be axed from their invite list. And with somewhere between 75-85% of Americans identifying with Christianity, you can bet they are all going to find Jesus real soon too.

For some reason,that song by the Village People, MEN, MEN, MEN, MEN.. keeps going through my mind.

#6 it's the right link, but it won't get you there.

Key passage...
It's exactly this Western demeanor that helped Schweitzer unseat a Montana Republican governor in 2004. It helps his approval rating — a startling 69 percent, according to a November poll.

And it makes him one of the rising stars of the Democrats, big enough to be the lead of a New York Times story this past Sunday as a "gun-loving, pickup truck-driving, church-going, jeans-wearing governor."

Anyone who really wants to read it all can go here, and scroll down to Today's headlines. But I digress, back to Cindy.

#7 I think that the Dems will still stick with the PC term of Mountain Persons, though, 2b. Old habits die hard, ya know....

#9 I'm just really looking forward to the pictures of Hillary's hunting trip. And maybe some photos of John Kerry standing behind her, holding her real close, showing her how to shoot.

#11 I can't imagine why - of Cindy sitting at the book table between signings, rather than while someone was at the table. When I worked at a bookstore the next person was perhaps 10 feet back at the most. Well within the frame of the photos I saw on Drudge.

If they did keep the signers back even further one has to wonder why. Perhaps Cindy was passing along secret instructions to each minion and didn't want anyone to overhear.

#18 WaPo is generally liberal hawkish, support Joe and Hilary (and dislikes Bush) and has little use for Sheehan, esp now that shes turned on Hilary. NYT, LAT, are more dovish than the Post, and less enthused about Hilary. Networks are simply not that smart, and more reactive. Wire services simply put up pictures - the loonies around Sheehan may think there was an agenda to it, but thats cause theyre loonies - dont see why folks here would buy off on that.

#19 "Wire services simply put up pictures"

That is complete and utter BS, and I can't believe you don't know that.

#21 LH: AP and Reuters editors are notorious for their “creative” editing. It’s not unusual for their stringers publically complain about it.
