Video: The Cindy Sheehan impeachment circus comes to Washington

posted at 10:32 am on July 24, 2007 by Bryan

I thought the bellicose, revolutionary, Commie-hugging Peace Mom retired from activism. That lasted, what, about a month? Her retirement was every bit as authentic as her fast for the troops. Too bad.

Anyway, she’s back and demanding the removal of a tyrant. No, not Hugo Chavez. Or Fidel Castro. Or Ahmadenijad. No, that other tyrant. The one who’s so repressive that she can stand right there in the capital city and denounce him for a war criminal, scream that he’s taking away all our rights to dissent, and not even provoke the slightest reaction from him. I bet Brian Becker laughs up his sleeve at half the nonsense that Sheehan spouts at these idiotic rallies.

Charles from the Age of Hooper braved the absolutely perfect weather and found the Peace Ma leading a ragged group of about 270 through another stupid and totally pointless march. He has photos and a write-up; his video is below. It looks like Cindy made an appointment with John Edwards’ hair stylist.

This is like a bad movie; a little painful and a little funny. I did laugh when she said people from around the nation came at very short notice. Unemployed much?

Spirit of 1776 on July 24, 2007 at 10:39 AM

She’s back because she wants another 15 min of fame.

jediwebdude on July 24, 2007 at 10:39 AM

She and her kooks are behind “Caution” tape. How appropriate.

Bigfoot on July 24, 2007 at 10:41 AM

Zzzz.

Good Lt on July 24, 2007 at 10:42 AM

I watched for about 15 seconds and had to stop it. Her voice is like finger nails down a chalk board. Send in the clowns, down bother, she’s here!!

ChrisIansNana on July 24, 2007 at 10:43 AM

Sorry typo don’t bother

ChrisIansNana on July 24, 2007 at 10:45 AM

Allah-

Isn’t that super sleuth and Plame supporter Ray McGovern walking next to Sheehan in your cover picture?

JackStraw on July 24, 2007 at 10:46 AM

Has “dissent is the highest form of patriotism” now replaced “speak truth to power” as the meme for the libs.

BTW Cindy, serving your country and laying your life down for the ideals of liberty and freedom, LIKE YOUR SON DID, is the highest form of patriotism, you cow.

I can’t watch the rest. I have better things to do, like clean the cat box.

Mallard T. Drake on July 24, 2007 at 10:46 AM

o man, this is like watching a train wreck that never ends.

trailortrash on July 24, 2007 at 10:49 AM

That was comical.

It will be fun to see Cindy run against Nancy…can you imagine a debate?

nailinmyeye on July 24, 2007 at 10:49 AM

She’s relentless, seriously, she never quits, does she?

And Jack, I’m thinking you meant Bryan.

Bad Candy on July 24, 2007 at 10:50 AM

Spirit of 1776 on July 24, 2007 at 10:39 AM

Heh. Yeah. Maybe 270 of them, none of whom seem to live in the district in which she will be running.

nailinmyeye on July 24, 2007 at 10:52 AM

She can be as retarded as she wants to be, that is her right. But when she uses a coffin with a pair of empty boots on top of it as a prop, it makes me sick. Our soldiers coffins are NOT to be used as a soapbox to stand on…she is disgusting. And she said on that tape that she is going to Iraq and Syria…as a propaganda tool for the enemy.

JustTruth101 on July 24, 2007 at 10:52 AM

Same question I always have: what in the name of God are these people going to do with themselves after January 2009?

George Bush gives their lives meaning. When the next President takes office, you’re going to see a lot of liberal depression and suicide attempts.

And ironically, it’s going to be worse if the next President is a Democrat. When there is the usual peaceful transition of power, when George Bush is succeeded by a new President right on schedule, when the impeachment never comes close to happening, when the concentration camps and the black helicopters don’t suddenly appear … these people are going to have their tin-foil reality implode around them.

It’s going to be funny to watch. God help them if we pull out of Iraq, too. Then they’ll really have no purpose. Maybe they’ll be like they’re hippie parents … maybe they’ll get jobs, become yuppies, and start voting Republican.

I know some of them will. Which is yet another thing that gives me the grins and giggles.

They’re all nothing but parasites, sucking their soul-blood from George Bush’s aura. When he leaves the scene … the parasites will starve. Especially if they can’t find a new host.

And while they weep over the impeachment that wasn’t, Dubya will retire to Crawford, not even noticing the silly twits who made hating him their life’s sole purpose. He won’t even notice. He’ll be playing golf and writing his memoirs and playing the elder statesman.

And that might be the funniest part of all.

George wins, moonbats. By a landslide. You were never in his league.

He always seems to beat you people, doesn’t he? That must drive you nucking futs, huh? The stupid redneck Neanderthal frat boy outsmarted every single one of you for eight long years.

It must make your poor loony heads want to just pop right off.

January 2009. Mark your calendars for the hilarity. And seriously, consider buying stock in pharmaceutical companies that sell anti-depressants and psychotropic medication. You could make a killing off all the liberal angst.

Professor Blather on July 24, 2007 at 10:52 AM

Only lib freaks pay any attention to her…I don’t listen and don’t watch…God Bless my remote…

areseaoh on July 24, 2007 at 10:53 AM

And Jack, I’m thinking you meant Bryan.

Bad Candy on July 24, 2007 at 10:50 AM

Opps, my bad. Yes, I should have addressed that to Bryan.

JackStraw on July 24, 2007 at 10:54 AM

Her voice is so intolerably obnoxious.
I can’t even finish the video.

unamused on July 24, 2007 at 10:54 AM

And she said on that tape that she is going to Iraq and Syria…

Wonder if she’ll pack a burka? I hear they don’t take kindly to an uncovered woman screaming on the corner there.

BacaDog on July 24, 2007 at 10:54 AM

So Cindy’s going to Syria and Jordan to visit refugee camps, as well as southern Iraq to meet with tribal leaders. Admits she has no U.S. authority, but says she can buy visas. Amazing.

Questions:
–What does she hope to accomplish?
–Will she be asking for suggestions as to how she can help undermine U.S. efforts in the M.E.?
–How do you suppose she and her merry band of pink squirrels will be received?
–And whom will she kiss?

IrishEi on July 24, 2007 at 11:00 AM

Don’t any of these people have jobs?

How can they take the time off?

Who’s supporting them?

Follow the moolah.

profitsbeard on July 24, 2007 at 11:06 AM

Prof. Blather Hopefully, they will go play in traffic. So many libz pleged to leave, but never did (and, frankly, we never cared weather or not they would’ve) Yesterday, Ol Sainty there called the Dimz the “party of war and salvery,” so there’s no loyalty there. If the Dimz win they’ll protest and demand empeachment of the demz once they don’t get their agendas enacted quickly enough, if at all.

Always remember, Cindy Never Put A Headstone On Casey’s Grave.

JackStraw on July 24, 2007 at 10:54 AM

Admit it, you’re just obsessed with AllahPindit. A little Hero worship. Nothing wrong with it.

Mazztek on July 24, 2007 at 11:14 AM

Rummy has been out for 9 months and these fools keep talking about removing him. I guess they don’t have TV or radio under the rocks they live under.

csdeven on July 24, 2007 at 11:19 AM

They work for war profiters? Like Dianne Feinstein?

OrthodoxRobert on July 24, 2007 at 11:22 AM

That’s it!!!

I am officially giving up my job as a Mom & Housewife and joining Cindy’s brigade! The points they brought out in this clip sure changed my mind about this war and Bush! Yes! Impeach him! I want to travel with Cindy and see the world and learn new ways of speaking in “Blonde”. Wow! I’m so impressed with her and her group! They are so smart! The songs they make up off the top of their heads or OMG…remember from 1974 summer camp!! The talent that flows from amongst their numbers is downright staggering!

I’m changing my name to Britney Lindsey and leaving my husband and son. Bye now. Must write Cindy and ask for money, pack my bags and map my way to San Francisco!

WOO-HOO!

SouthernPride on July 24, 2007 at 11:25 AM

I’m changing my name to Britney Lindsey
SouthernPride on July 24, 2007 at 11:25 AM

Heh.

Speaking of …. how about a big post on Ms. Lohan’s arrest last night?

Now that’s news worth talking about. Almost as good as Harry Potter.

Professor Blather on July 24, 2007 at 11:27 AM

Southern Pride-

That would be Saint Britney Lindsey.

Be sure to start a blog about your experiences with the joys of liberation from family to serve The Cause.

profitsbeard on July 24, 2007 at 11:27 AM

profitsbeard on July 24, 2007 at 11:27 AM

OMG! Great idea! How do I do that? Write a blog? I’ll ask Cindy.

Ok, gotta go. I’m making a white cross with my son’s name on it, just like Cindy’s! My son is only 17 and still lives at home, but plans on joining the Army next year, so I’m justified!

Can you hear me? Ok. I love it!

I’m now St. Britney Lindsey~

(I do enjoy my blonde moments)

SouthernPride on July 24, 2007 at 11:39 AM

Hey Cindy, Enabling Act, google it. Currently one country in the world has one of these, and its not the US.

BohicaTwentyTwo on July 24, 2007 at 11:39 AM

I heart Professor Blather and wish to enroll at Blather U.

“Parasites, sucking their soul-blood from George Bush’s aura”… that’s poetry!

saint kansas on July 24, 2007 at 11:42 AM

thought the bellicose, revolutionary, Commie-hugging Peace Mom retired from activism.

She did, just think how much more of her we’d have to deal with if she were still doing it full time.

For those how got past half a second on the video can I ask, what are you masochists?

srhoades on July 24, 2007 at 11:50 AM

Now that was funny. I struggled to watch the whole thing but I am glad I did. The only conclusion that I could draw after reviewing was this.

If any one of the 270 short notice attendees could have gotten laid they wouldn’t have been there.

swami on July 24, 2007 at 11:55 AM

profitsbeard on July 24, 2007 at 11:06 AM

It ultimately all leads to one man, Geroge Soros. Check out the Open Society Institute and the unbelievable number of organizations such as MoveOn.org, Democracy Now, The Nation mag, etc. etc. he either directly or indirectly funds.

Without his money, the nutroots would crumble.

JackStraw on July 24, 2007 at 11:57 AM

St. Britney Lindsey–
Don’t forget your 3000 cal/day fast!

Remember, you’re are now a representative of St. Cindy’s version of EMO!!

Go St.Britney Lindsey EMO Girl!

Catseye on July 24, 2007 at 12:00 PM

How many carbon offsets does Cindy-poo have to buy in order to compensate for all the CO2 she spews? What a waste of space!

MrFreeman07 on July 24, 2007 at 12:04 PM

Professor Blather on July 24, 2007 at 12:06 PM

St. Cindy Shebiscuit needs to put her fasting oat bag back on and stfu.

Kowboy on July 24, 2007 at 12:43 PM

Yea, according to Cindy herself, that is Ray McCovern.

At the end of the march, Reverend Lennox Yearwood, President of the Hip Hop Caucus, Ray McGovern (retired CIA analyst) and I met with Congressman John Conyers to implore him to institute impeachment proceedings against the pretenders to the White House who are destroying our democracy, making a mockery out of our rule of law and who are responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent people.

JackStraw on July 24, 2007 at 12:56 PM

Gee. all Cindy The Shill needed was a second rate brass band blaring their version of “We Will Rock You!”, rejects from Ringling Brothers’ Clown College dancing up the street and confetti and balloons raining from the sky to complete her little freak show here. Just throw in the nice guys in the white suits with their butterfly nets ready to take her away to Happydale Acres to complete the picture.

You mean Kim Jung “Mentally” Ill?

Tim Burton on July 24, 2007 at 1:34 PM

I got about 10 seconds into the video and had to stop listening. That woman makes me insane.

pullingmyhairout on July 24, 2007 at 1:51 PM

Finally, SNL comes up with a some what funny skit. What? It’s not SNL…………………………………………………………………nevermind.

oakpack on July 24, 2007 at 2:09 PM

Darn! I just missed St.Cindy! My daughter’s in town and I took her to the Capital yesterday.We got to see the ‘Free the Tamils in Sri Lanka’ protest or something like that…

DCJeff on July 24, 2007 at 3:28 PM

Go St.Britney Lindsey EMO Girl!

Catseye on July 24, 2007 at 12:00 PM

Yeahhhhh!!! Yippee!
Hmmm…what’s EMO?

Oh well. I’m so just so excited because, as you all may know, I’ve been arrested for DUI and posession. (A few times actually. Ha!) Anyways, old news! Now Cindy is going to teach me new ways to get arrested!! I’m sooooo excited! I love America! I can now set better, more excellent examples for your young Libs to be!

Who cares about Laws and junk like that! All the cool people break them nowadays….You know, like Paris and Mexican Nationals and of course, our Cindy-girl!

I think I’ll even burn my bra while I march. I’m thinking Cindy’s already burned her itty bitty one. Oh well. Peace!

Bye now,
St. Britney Lindsey

SouthernPride on July 24, 2007 at 3:56 PM

Oh for Pete’s sake!
Nice integrity and convictions she’s got going on there.
I will do this (not!), I will not do that (psych!)
This deluded woman will say anything to stay in the spotlight.
Surely there is an artillery range somewhere in need of a target?

G-man on July 24, 2007 at 4:40 PM

“How long are we going to allow a person from any country in the world to come to our own house to say there’s a dictatorship here, that the President is a tyrant, and nobody does anything about it?”

Yeah, where are Bush’s storm troopers anyway? Shouldn’t they be arresting, detaining, and torturing these people? Chavez has got the right idea here – do something about these types of people!

I’m sure Peace Mom would agree with her friend Chavez…

Seixon on July 24, 2007 at 6:33 PM

Almost the first thing out of her mouth was “wearing/washing the same clothes for 2 weeks. I’d bet money those clothes weren’t washed. And how is that different from the rest of their lives.
Camp songs? I don’t remember singing camp songs about Nixon. This guy must have meant growing up on the commune. And the cross with Casey’s name. Please Cindy. Let your son Rest in Peace!

PowWow on July 24, 2007 at 6:43 PM

biggest circle jerk I ever saw…

Don’t these people work?

Lonevoice on July 24, 2007 at 9:42 PM

Holy crap, what a pack of loons! Cindy needs a better hobby. I hear philately is nice.
