I Warned Sheehan

Hey folks,

Happy Hump Day. I cannot believe I missed this. That does not happen much. It is extremely rare that I miss ANYTHING in the news. Even if I’m not here. Especially an AP story. But I did miss this. A friend of mine pointed this one out to me last night.

Two weeks ago, I told you how Cindy Sheehan was running for Pelosi’s seat in the House. On Sunday I awarded Sheehan the IWA. I felt a little compassion for her so I issued her a friendly warning. At the end of the IWA segment I said this.

“Congratulations Cindy Sheehan, you are without doubt, the Idiot of the Week. Just remember, if you go up against the LWL, they eat their own.”

Well, well, well, looky here. According to the AP -Sheehan arrested in impeachment protest By NATASHA T. METZLER, Associated Press Writer Mon Jul 23, 7:09 PM ET

Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan was arrested Monday at the Capitol for disorderly conduct, shortly after saying she would run against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi over the California Democrat's refusal to try to impeach President Bush.

Sheehan was taken into custody inside Rep. John Conyers' office, where she had spent an hour imploring him to launch impeachment proceedings against Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney. Conyers, D-Mich., chairs the House Judiciary Committee, where any impeachment effort would have to begin.

STOP!! Read that again. Who had her arrested? Rep. John Conyers. “Conyers, D-Mich., chairs the House Judiciary Committee, where any impeachment effort would have to begin.”

It wasn’t the Big bad Bush Administration. It wasn’t the evil Dick Cheney. It was the LWL. Apparently she is too looney even for them. {Laughing}

"The Democrats will not hold this administration accountable, so we have to hold the Democrats accountable," Sheehan said outside of Conyers' office after the meeting. "And I for one am going to step up to the plate and run against Nancy Pelosi."

Sheehan and about 200 other protesters had walked to Conyers' office from Arlington National Cemetery. She said Conyers told her there weren't enough votes for impeachment to move forward on the issue.

Forty-five of Sheehan's fellow protesters also were arrested. Capitol Police spokeswoman Sgt. Kimberly Schneider said that after they are processed, the arrested activists could each pay a $50 fine to be released.

"Impeachment is not a fringe movement, it is mandated in our Constitution. Nancy Pelosi had no authority to take it off the table," Sheehan told her group of orange-clad activists before they began their march from the national cemetery.

She really is an idiot folks. The President has done NOTHING that would justify impeachment. The American people do not want it. Most elected officials know that they will fail and it will come back to bite them if they try it. Oh, they’ll TALK about it to appease their looney base, but actually do it? Just like outright de-funding the war, they do not have the guts to try it.

Of course the AP has to try to make you understand that you should have some compassion on this pathetic, I mean, sympathetic character know as Sheehan.

Sheehan, whose 24-year-old son, Casey, was killed in Iraq, has been saying for two weeks that she would seek to oust Pelosi from office by running against her as an independent in her San Francisco district if Pelosi didn't change her mind by July 23 on trying to impeach Bush.

Conyers introduced a bill last term calling on Congress to determine whether there are grounds for impeaching Bush. Pelosi has steadfastly dismissed any talk of impeachment, saying Democrats should focus their efforts on ending the war in Iraq.

They are not looney enough for Sheehan, or is Sheehan too looney for them? Tough call. But the sad fact is she WAS used and abused by the Left Wing Looneys. No doubt about it. They MADE her a household name. They put her in the lime light. They won, no longer having any use for her, they threw her away like yesterdays trash. But she doesn’t want to go. She LIKES the lime light. She likes the money that Soros gave her. She LIKES the fame.

But the fact remains, if you go against these people, they will seek to destroy you. EVEN if, you are one of them. Ask Lieberman. He’ll tell you. Compared to him, Sheehan is nothing more than a bug that they feel they now need to swash. I warned you Cindy. They really DO eat there own.
