Can you blame him? It’s quite a “get” — the anti-war movement’s foremost media whore enjoying a little in-studio special. Will she do them the honor of breaking news right then and there by declaring her candidacy opposite Nancy Pelosi, he wonders? I’ve already announced it, she politely reminds him. That’s at the end of the clip, though; what you’re really watching for is the beginning, where they tease her upcoming trip to Iraq. Sanchez knows how those crazy wingnuts operate, always with the “consorting with the enemy” stuff when people consort with the enemy. But St. Cindy promises she’ll be good and only meet with insurgents who are working towards reconciliation. Which creates the exceedingly remote yet still existent possibility that she’ll end up lecturing about how George Bush killed her son in front of the guy who actually killed her son.

Dear God – what a ditz… Why does she get any notice or air time at all???
“Reparations to the people of Iraq…” Priceless.
Corky on July 16, 2007 at 3:32 PM
Yeah, lots of them running around just waiting to talk to sheehan…in between shooting at our soldiers to “reconcile with allah”.
frickin idiot(s). Who’s paying for this trip? CHAOS? (k-os)
shooter on July 16, 2007 at 3:34 PM
By the way, Cindy never put a headstone on her son’s grave. She bought a VW Bug instead.
Mazztek on July 16, 2007 at 3:41 PM
Actually, I support Ms. Sheehan’s candidacy.
Let SanFran descend further into nutroot hell.
Zach on July 16, 2007 at 3:41 PM
I wonder if the “insurgents” will provide an anti-aircraft gun for her to pose on.
flipflop on July 16, 2007 at 3:42 PM
She’s
soundinglooking more and more like Rosie O’Donnell every day.Gregor on July 16, 2007 at 3:43 PM
SanFranCindy has a nive ring to it!
Dread Pirate Roberts VI on July 16, 2007 at 3:43 PM
Can’t she wear anything other than a t shirt?
SouthernDem on July 16, 2007 at 3:44 PM
I wonder if she’ll wear traditional muslim garb when speaking to them.
Benaiah on July 16, 2007 at 3:44 PM
I’ve only watched for 36 seconds, and funniest part?
While Saint Cindy is doing her best to look understand what Sanchez just said about meeting with enemies of the U.S.
Priceless. And best part for me is there’s 3 min. 14 sec. more to go!
Christoph on July 16, 2007 at 3:45 PM
When is she and daddy Berg going to tie the knot . . .
They both could adopt Sean Penn.
Texyank on July 16, 2007 at 3:47 PM
Ah, I see…when going on national television to be interviewed, wear a t-shirt, slouch, and stick your gut out as far as it will go.
Haven’t they made any control-top antiwar duds yet? Can’t they get those grannies who keep trying to enlist to embroider an anti-Bush message on a polo shirt for those times when you want to make a more refined protest statement?
James on July 16, 2007 at 3:48 PM
Why do leftards think they have some kind of immunity? Hope she doesn’t lose her head.
Keli on July 16, 2007 at 3:49 PM
Pay me!
On-my-soap-box on July 16, 2007 at 3:51 PM
while announcing you’re running to unseat the current Speaker of the House of Representatives.
Christoph on July 16, 2007 at 3:51 PM
That’s exactly what I was going to post. At least Pelosi dresses appropriately for her job. Maybe in 2009 we’ll have congresswoman Sheehan in her t-shirt and President Ron Paul in his ever-present black tennis shoes. Lovely.
Bad Penny on July 16, 2007 at 3:55 PM
I’ll work steady OT to contribute toward a one-way ticket…
Captain Scarlet on July 16, 2007 at 3:56 PM
Well since the Sunnis are not fighting against our troops
the SHI’TS WILL REALLY HIT THE FAN when St. Cindy is visiting,
((((ppuplupp)))))
Wonderful!!!
Magnificent!!!
LET THE PARTY BEGIN!!!!!
We’ll be out of Iraq before we know it!!
HIP, HIP, HOORRAY!!!
20 MEGATONS OF ENERGY!!!
The hair on my back is FEELING
fizzlycurly.We don’t need the neutron bomb!!!
All HAIL TO St. Cindy. SHE NOT ONLY MOPS UP THE FLOOR, SHE RIPS UP THE CONCRETE FOUNDATION!!!!!!
Mcguyver on July 16, 2007 at 4:00 PM
So let me get this stright. She is going to put trust and faith and confidence I guess in the military to provide some sense of security for her for these meetings right? The same military she has called every vile name under the sun? The same military she has accused of the most heinous of crimes? Or is she just going to forgo the security or rely on her pedophile bugle blowing gay ex Marine bodyguard to keep her safe?
LakeRuins on July 16, 2007 at 4:04 PM
You know what would be funny, though almost impossible? If Cindy was able to take enough votes from Nancy (due to the heavy anti-war group in San Fran) and a Republican won, ala-Nader.
amerpundit on July 16, 2007 at 4:05 PM
I see she’s still fasting.
KelliD on July 16, 2007 at 4:05 PM
I just couldn’t, brought the video up and as she begin to brush her hair…I just couldn’t. There is nothing she could say that would make me want to suffer listening to her squeal.
right2bright on July 16, 2007 at 4:06 PM
Has anyone seen Paris Hilton and Cindy Sheehan together in the same place at the same time?
Just sayin’. I just realized that if you close your eyes, Cindy Sheehan sounds an awful lot like Paris Hilton discussing geopolitics. Similar speech patterns. Similar stupidity.
Wasn’t Sheehan awfully quiet … right about the time Hilton was busy finding religion care of the LA County correctional facilities?
She could afford the make-up and special effects, right? Maybe this is all a big episode of Punk’d? Remember where you heard it first.
On another note – am I the only one who actually feels sorry for liberals when they hear this creature? Seriously – imagine if there was a conservative this non-credible, this embarrassing, this annoying … getting this much airtime, and representing YOU.
I feel sorry for all the liberals out there who cringe when they see this creature. I really do.
And a final note: before Cindy goes to Iraq, I hope she Googled Rachel Corrie.
God – or the secular universe – seems to have an awfully vicious sense of ironic comedy.
I’m – of course – not cheering for Sheehan to get Corried, nor applauding what happened to Corrie …
… but such things seem to happen more often than the should; like I said, somebody up there digs irony. If I were Cindy Sheehan, I wouldn’t go near Iraq.
God bless her bodyguards. And please, somebody tell me the US military isn’t providing her security. If that idiot Paris Hilton-sounding America-hating leech gets a soldier hurt … more irony again … my head may explode.
Professor Blather on July 16, 2007 at 4:08 PM
Off with her head then.
Griz on July 16, 2007 at 4:09 PM
Great point!!! And at a cost of how much? to keep her tired ass safe? That really chaps my ____.
We shouldn’t do it for her, let her hire the privates over there, maybe some Iraqi police to show her the way?
Hey Cindy, if they offer you a way to convert to Islam…DUCK if you say no thanks.
shooter on July 16, 2007 at 4:10 PM
Let her go to meet the murderers of her son. She may regret the day.
apostle53 on July 16, 2007 at 4:10 PM
Harpoon on July 16, 2007 at 4:10 PM
s/b …. opportunity to hear this thing speak.
Harpoon on July 16, 2007 at 4:11 PM
Actually, she did eventually get a headstone, but just not before posing on his grave for Vanity Fair in a spread that just felt all too satirical.
So weird.
Esthier on July 16, 2007 at 4:13 PM
The famous ice cream fast?
:-P
That was a good one.
Christoph on July 16, 2007 at 4:15 PM
Better yet, standing next to a newly planted IED while wearing a Suicide vest. That will get her Frisco and Marin County
Zaire67 on July 16, 2007 at 4:15 PM
Funny like clubbing baby seals funny?
On-my-soap-box on July 16, 2007 at 4:16 PM
Funnier, man, and I say that as a Canadian.
Christoph on July 16, 2007 at 4:18 PM
Sure, eh?
On-my-soap-box on July 16, 2007 at 4:20 PM
A couple things.
1. That’s what she looks like WITH makeup?
2. Did anyone else feel like the guy was talking down to her the way one would with a teenager?
Esthier on July 16, 2007 at 4:21 PM
I think St. Cindy may be wearing Code Pink Crocs, too.
kiakjones on July 16, 2007 at 4:32 PM
No, her ex-husband and the local church actually did it. She never did.
Mazztek on July 16, 2007 at 4:34 PM
MY Caravan! I thought this wasn’t supposed to be about HER.
shineboxjed on July 16, 2007 at 4:35 PM
Sounds a bit fascist to me. Where’s the ‘love?’ Where’s the ‘dialog?’ Feh.
TinMan13 on July 16, 2007 at 4:39 PM
I bet she’s hot in the sack
Locrian on July 16, 2007 at 4:42 PM
I just threw up.
KelliD on July 16, 2007 at 4:42 PM
Thanks Locrian.
KelliD on July 16, 2007 at 4:43 PM
It’s impossible for me to decide which one is the most disgusting . . . Sheehan or Sanchez and his left wing propaganda network. One thing is certain; they are both idiotic slugs.
rplat on July 16, 2007 at 4:47 PM
Friggin’ hilarious man!
Dork B. on July 16, 2007 at 4:48 PM
I don’t see where it says that in the link you provided.
http://sweetness-light.com/archive/casey-sheehans-grave-finally-gets-a-headstone
And as stated later on in that page:
Casey’s father is probably the person who got the headstone, but I’ve never seen that written anywhere as fact.
Besides, if you want ammo, check out the link I sent. There’s no possible way for her to have visited the grave as often as she claimed she did in that first year. Plus, despite receiving a significant amount of money from Casey’s life insurance, she left the funeral director to pay a large sum of the funeral costs.
Esthier on July 16, 2007 at 4:53 PM
AP – that deserves a strong warning!
On-my-soap-box on July 16, 2007 at 5:07 PM
Esthier on July 16, 2007 at 4:53 PM
Oh. Snopes changed the listing. It used to have that detail about Mr Sheehan.
And, there’s nothing challenging their assertions about Casey’s life insurance. From personal experience (USMC-R) SGLI pays out an initial Death Gratuity Benefit of $12,500.00 as soon as the servicemember passes. SGLI actually pays $500,000, and it takes a special filing to make it $250K.
If you wanna make Congress nervous, ask them where the BILLIONS collected over the years for SGLI premiums go.
Mazztek on July 16, 2007 at 5:15 PM
If she goes, the military better not spend one minute protecting her. How would you like to be the company that has he life policy. ouch
KBird on July 16, 2007 at 5:19 PM
That’s a great line AP.
I’m sure that thought never crossed Cindy’s mind, nor has any other rational thought.
fogw on July 16, 2007 at 5:24 PM
Cindy She-man also had a toilet roll dispenser mounted on the headstone.
In an effort to raise money for the upcoming campaign, Rosie has offered to star with Sindee, in a horror movie, about a plus size lesbian couple just trying to get bi in Sanfran (rated R).
(turn your head, vomit will ruin yer keyboard)
christophercube on July 16, 2007 at 5:29 PM
Cindy got a major league makeover, folks.
Brand new flattering hairdo. Color job as well.
And looks like a major botoxing on the face.. no more jowls or lines under her eyes…
Looks like Cindy is gonna enjoy being a playah again.
Then again, on the substance, Always Right offers this one HUGE omission from St. Cindy’s Iraq analysis:
She said she wants to stop “Iraqis killing Americans and Americans killing Iraqis”.. but what did she LEAVE OUT GANG???
tick tock tick tock tick tock….
yep just the largest category of all…
how about stopping AlQuaeda insurgents from killing Iraqis and sunni Iraqis killing shia Iraqis and vice versa …..
oh well, you know the thing about leftards and FACTS…
Always Right on July 16, 2007 at 5:54 PM
BTW, Rick Sanchez must have swallowed a sixpack of Red Bull before the interview. Easy on the histrionics, pretty boy.
Always Right on July 16, 2007 at 5:55 PM
I’ve got it. Here’s how you get rid of Cindy:
Her main weakness is media exposure; even the Kos kids know that by now.
But! We musn’t forget that at her core, she’s nothing but an old Hippie… All we need to do is convince a
RepublicanLibertarian MD to write her a prescription for some of that medicinal pot, but with unlimited refills. Problem solved. I guarantee within two weeks she’ll be back home eating cookie dough in front of VH1.Never underestimate the Power of Flower, maaaan…
Dork B. on July 16, 2007 at 5:55 PM
Given this woman’s mental state, i wouldn’t be surprised if she picked up arms against US forces in Iraq. Yes, i believe she’s that insane.
madne0 on July 16, 2007 at 5:57 PM
If Mama Moonbat goes over to Iraq to meet with the insurgents, her education goes something like this:
Cindy: I feel for you and want to help you and free you from BushCo.
Insurgent: You are American? You must die!
C: No, no, I sympathize with your cause
I: You are American! You must die!
C: No you don’t understand. I have been leading the anit-war movement in my country. We must pull out of Iraq now.
I: You are American! You must die!
C: George Bush killed my son. I’m here to find out how to stop this madness before you poor misunderstood people have to die.
I: No, you die. You are American.
C: I knew it. BushCo and Haliburton have poisoned your mind and you don’t realize you have friends in my country. We are on your side.
I: Woman, you don’t know your place and you are tiresome. And you are American. You die NOW.
Cindy desperately looks left and right for American soldiers to protect and save her from the jam she has unwittingly got herself into. In a epiphany she suddenly realizes what the USA is trying to be accomplished in Iraq and wishes she had been a little more supportive of the troops.
Regardless of her past behavior, the troops storm in, kill the insurgents, and rescue Cindy from the beheading that was moments away. Feeling shame and humiliation at her behaviour over the past few years, Cindy quietly retires from the limelight and politics, never to be heard from again.
The End
I love a happy ending…..
Mallard T. Drake on July 16, 2007 at 6:45 PM
Right on, Right On! Keen eye! But Ugh!!!
Not even CNN’s make-up department could reduce St. Cindy’s homeliness enough to keep me from reaching for the Dramamine.
That t-shirt.
That saggy bust.
That hairdo that makes her look like a cantaloupe split off-center.
That basset-hound frumpiness with the tinny voice channeling smarmy naiveté.
How can one person be so vacuous and misaligned with reality that a list of ad hominem attacks is a valid description of her?
I think that what the people of SanFran really want/need is for Ru Paul to run, not Ron Paul.
Sane US citizens have tolerated the freak-show that is the City By The Bay far too long. Is there anything we can do to trigger the “big one” so that everything for a 25 mile radius around Haight-Ashbury slides into the Pacific?
jcmorris on July 16, 2007 at 7:18 PM
Sure it did. The people who killed her son were freedom fighters defending their homeland from the imperialist bush and his minions of manipulated soldiers who never graduated high school.
csdeven on July 16, 2007 at 7:35 PM
A fan of fiction I see. :-)
csdeven on July 16, 2007 at 7:38 PM
I don’t know what she said. Everytime she opened her mouth all I could here was some blond airhead laughing heheheheheheheheheehe.
boomer on July 16, 2007 at 7:49 PM
First, that video quality was great… must be they put online video in HD now?
Second, did anyone notice that Cindy is trying to look more like a woman (with the new hair)? Though if she wants to be taken seriously, she’ll have to stop wearing goofy t-shirts that make her look like a lady who should be pushing a shopping cart full of diapers across a K-Mart parking lot to a rusted out minivan with about 5 or 6 smelling illegitimate children with food all over their faces in tow.
Next, I wonder if the people she wants to meet with will appreciate her referring to them as “tribes”? Sounds kind of degrading to me.
RightWinged on July 16, 2007 at 7:54 PM
What exactly does anyone at CNN see in Cindy Sheehan that would bear even the slightest resemblance to something newsworthy? Instead of encouraging her by giving her unwarranted airtime, the media should turn their collective backs on this loon, so that she will go away, once and for all!
pilamaye on July 16, 2007 at 8:08 PM
Don’t you know? Anyone or thing that bashes Bush is worthy of airtime.
boomer on July 16, 2007 at 8:46 PM
Well, when the caravan consists of just her VW and the camper trailer she pulls behind it…..
Kowboy on July 16, 2007 at 9:28 PM
I see that her hunger strike worked out well for her.
Herikutsu on July 16, 2007 at 10:29 PM
I found it extremely appropriate that an ad for a product that helps with the pain of excess gas preceded the clip. Also, her large girth is just preparation for another hunger strike (much like a bear storing fat for the winter hibernation). On a more serious note this woman sickens and disgusts me. I believe that she is a media whore who is using her son’s death to promote herself.
dawgyear on July 16, 2007 at 10:56 PM
WOW Rick Sanchez is the inventer of the Filthy Sanchez. Cindy must have gotten wind of it. ALERT THE MEDIA CODE STINK!!!!!
sonnyspats1 on July 16, 2007 at 11:52 PM
I’m going to say the same thing I said about Mr. Berg. Actually make it a twofer.
Send them off with backpacks full of granola. No military escort. They can have their “meeting”. If they make it out, maybe we let them back in the country.
PowWow on July 16, 2007 at 11:56 PM
I wonder if her disembodied head will keep on yammering after her jihad-o-pals sever it.
Mephistefales on July 17, 2007 at 12:19 AM
Let Allah protect her as he protects the protagonists of his religion of peace.
