...cindy sheehan: courageous mother...or ridiculous spectacle?...

i think most people though that cindy sheehan was great when she first started camping outside of george w. bush's crawford ranch, calling him to account for the death of her son. how neat!

but now she has made herself into a spectacle. wearing an anti-war tshirt where she knew it was prohibited [stick it to the man, by all means, but, come on. after all, she was a guest]? that's just sad.

and now my dad said she's thinking of running for senator.

just give. it. up. being a war mother isn't anything new. you aren't special. i'm sorry that your son died, terribly, horribly sorry. but do you really think he'd be proud of the way you're acting?

[sigh]

i'm tired.
