Seriously, but for Howard Dean and Hillary Clinton, is there any greater asset to the conservative election cause than momma-moonbat herself...Cindy Sheehan?WASHINGTON (Reuters) - About 150 protesters sat in front of the White House on Monday to savor their last meal before starting a hunger strike that some said will continue until American troops return from Iraq.
Yeeeaaaaay, long troop deployments!
The demonstration marking the Independence Day holiday was organized by CodePink, a women's anti-war group that called on volunteers to abstain from eating for 24 hours from midnight on Monday.
I am completely at a loss as to what a hunger strike accomplishes any more.
Some protesters said their fast would continue beyond July 4th.
If it's true what they say that 3 weeks without food is deadly, then I think we should encourage them to shoot for a good month.
Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan, whose son was killed in Iraq, said she would drink only water throughout the summer, which she said she would spend outside President George W. Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas.
"This war is a crime," Sheehan told a crowd of clapping, cheering protesters. "We represent millions of Americans who withdraw their support from this government."
The demonstrators crouched in the muggy evening next to a piece of pink plastic, spread down the road as a table and table-cloth in one. It was covered with wilted pink sunflowers and plates of vegetarian curry, white rice, and beans.
What a bunch of fruit-cakes!
My prediction: in about 1 week the media will tire of the 110 degree Texes summer heat and Cindy's rantings and take their cameras home to cover actual news, and about 1 minute later, Cindy will pack it in and head for the nearest Pizza Hut saying, "I can get more accomplished in Washington where the cameras are."

She's so over the top in her representation of everything that is wrong with radical, America-hating Leftists, that she's almost too easy a target for ridicule to pass up...but alas, at some point all the jokes will have been made and we'll just have to ignore her, as even her fawning dingleberries in the media seem to have done.
