Video: Saint Cindy shills for Chavez

She’s the gift that keeps on giving. All that’s left is a photo op with Ahmadinejad, or a papier mache puppet of Ahmadinejad. Either will do.

Norah O’Donnell doesn’t even try to hide her hostility. It’d be easy to assume from this that she’s pro-war, but tain’t necessarily so; she’s simply bright enough to realize that Cindy’s not helping anyone anymore except Cindy.

I love the title they chose for the segment, too.

Now that Mother Sheehan’s damaged goods, expect our friends on the left to turn their attention to another profile in conscience — one who’s looking at eight years tonight for conduct unbecoming an officer, missing movement and contempt toward officials.

Update: Spruiell’s got a partial transcript of stuff I had to cut due to fair-use constraints.

The SnagHag sounds so pathetically childlike. Her voice reminds me of annoying, intellectually vacant teenagers. She’s too damned old to be a Valley Girl.

I think she had an audio-feed in her ear. Yeah, I know she sounded STOOPID, but with a leftwinger in your ear how else would you sound?

I like how that Nora gal challenged her on calling Bush a terrorist….more than once.

Still, a puff piece.

Why her her clock-o’-fame stuck at 14m 50s?

Someone put in new batteries, please. For the love of all humanity, put some new batteries in!

PMSNBC is in worse shape than I thought.

JammieWearingFool on July 5, 2006 at 8:06 PM

Holy crap.

Thank goodness Cindy put the brakes on Norah’s kooky plan to fly a bunch of planes over and pick up the troops right away.

Doesn’t O’Donnell realize that would take months?

John from WuzzaDem on July 5, 2006 at 8:31 PM

I loved that “what a windbag” sideways glance at the end of the clip.

Savage on July 5, 2006 at 8:44 PM

Rumor has it Kerry and Kennedy are giving up olives in their martinis as a show of solidarity.

B Moe on July 5, 2006 at 8:45 PM

Who’s paying Sheehan’s bills? Does anyone know?

Kevin R on July 5, 2006 at 8:52 PM

This clip should’ve been titled: “Eric Idle stars in Communist Gandhi!”

Savage on July 5, 2006 at 8:53 PM

She’s the gift that keeps on giving.

Like a SBD fart that just won’t go away.

It’s incredible that someone that stupid is given nationwide attention.

speed647 on July 5, 2006 at 9:14 PM

Well we might as well have fun with this. Did she weigh in at the start of this stunt??? Is she eating at night (like her friends who celebrate ramadan)?

I say she loses 20 pounds by the time Bush is on the ranch.

Richsamg on July 5, 2006 at 9:19 PM

I just called United Airlines and asked the reservations agent if it was possible to set up a fund where people could donate money to send Ms. Sheehan a one way ticket to Venezuela. They said they have a charity program where you can donate your United miles towards buying her a ticket. Other options would have to include us setting up an independent bank account where people could donate.

The reservations agent was pleased when I explained that United was the best choice for getting her out of the country, given Flight 93.

I’m ready with cash if anyone wants to set up an account!

dm60462 on July 5, 2006 at 9:52 PM

I’d just like the MSM to put someone on that knew her well and could be candid about it before her son gave his life for his Country. It’d be interesting to know if this woman was a whack job to begin with, or, if grief actually pushed her over the edge of sanity.

NRA4Freedom on July 5, 2006 at 10:14 PM

I love the back and forth argument of the senators who support the immediate withdrawl of the troops. Hmmm, who should we believe, someone that its their JOB to be current and informed on these things? Or a half-baked, tofu-eating, say-anything-to-try-to-advance-their-agenda-ill-informed liberal.
ALL I can say is -ARGH- and shake my head that someone with no credibility, no education of government or politics or foreign affairs beyond a High School government class can be such an authroity on what is best for the country and a highly volitile and unstable country half a world away.

the observer on July 6, 2006 at 12:57 AM

Kevin R, Michael Moore is paying her bills and definitely not Theresa Heinz.

NRA4Freedom, her son was brought up by his father and the father’s second wife, two very decent people. We don’t know where Cindy dwelled during that time. As an adult the son enlisted, served, then volunteered to go to Iraq for a second term, when he was killed.

Then his mother surfaced. The gullible libs had no idea what blamage she would bring, when they first embraced her. Now they’re stuck with her and don’t know where and how far to hide from her.

Allert – do not force-feed her, a la Guantanamo, unless you want this spectacle to continue – not a bad idea, given who’s side she’s on.

Imagine a Broadway show “Starving for Attention”…

Entelechy on July 6, 2006 at 1:45 AM

I was under the impression that Code Pink is paying her bills.

Mortis on July 6, 2006 at 2:23 AM

I hope Sheehen starves to death.

May God forgive me for my feelings, but I really despise this woman.

georgej on July 6, 2006 at 7:04 AM

I doubt any of these leftist kooks will die from a 24 hour fast or from their tag team fast-a-thon.

However, should any of them perish all they will have accomplished during this stunt is to die hungry.

doingwhatican on July 6, 2006 at 8:44 AM

For a great pix of what our favor moonbat will look like in a few weeks click on the link below and scroll down to the 11th picture.

Past the picture of the rats and the Supreme Court. (In case you can’t tell them apart, the SC are ones in black..well they are both in black, amd they both smell and some of them are dead already dead.) Anyway you can’t miss her.

There’s the link directly to it…but Moonbattery is hilarious reading.

Cao on July 6, 2006 at 9:35 AM

Kevin, Thanks for the information, sounds like maybe she was just a nut to start with.

NRA4Freedom on July 6, 2006 at 9:37 AM

“Casey- Thank you for your service and sacrifice for your country. Sorry about your mom.”

webproze on July 6, 2006 at 10:14 AM

For the first time ever, I found myself actually feeling sorry for John F’in Kerry. Poor bastidge. Bet he just luved Cindy Sheehan articulating his official position of the week on Iraq. Wonder how many votes she just cost him the next time he runs? And I wonder if his future opponent has already set aside a copy of that interview for use in campaign ads?

God how I love Cindy Sheehan. She is truly a gift. If we could only get her to make a full length feature film, I think she’d do more for the Republican Party than even Michael Moore did.

For the millionth time, I find myself wondering why liberals don’t realize that they’d probably win more elections if they’d just stop talking.

Just. Be. Quiet. I’m convinced if Democrats everywhere took a vow of silence for the next two years, they’d find themselves doing MUCH better in both 2006 and 2008.

God bless the dumb buggers. Somehow they never figure it out.

Now somebody get Cindy a cheeseburger. We can’t let ANYTHING bad happen to that wonderful creature. She’s our perpetual ace-in-the-hole. No matter how bad a conservative candidate might be, all we’ve got to do is point to Cindy … and ask if THAT’S who voters want running the country.

Get her a slice of pizza. Quick.

Professor Blather on July 6, 2006 at 10:26 AM

Pathetic Whiny Media Whore.

havok on July 6, 2006 at 10:54 AM

Wow, this woman is stupid. I just wanted to slap that dumb grin off of her face while she was talking about Chavez. Moron.

StephC on July 6, 2006 at 10:59 AM

All I can see in my mind’s eye is Cindy Sheehan kneeling in front of an angry masked Islamic terrorist (with a long knife in his hand) as she reads a statement on Chaves.

Shmo on July 6, 2006 at 11:18 AM

She’s sold her soul to continue having her ego stroked.

darwin on July 6, 2006 at 11:45 AM

The really sad thing is the MSM embraced her as their own. The wheels have come off.

Shmo on July 6, 2006 at 12:43 PM

LEFTIST HUNGER STRIKE: Better Red than fed.

CINDY SHEEHAN: Fast and furious.

Dr. Charles G. Waugh on July 6, 2006 at 3:20 PM

The tinhatters at DU LOVED Cindy’s showing…

Well, try this instead…
