All dressed up and no place to go



The crew of freaks showing up in Crawford to support St. Cindy, that is. That's because Cindy had to head home because her mother was ill:
As word spread through the ramshackle campsite, Sheehan's supporters expressed concern that her absence would also mean the departure of dozens of journalists who have been broadcasting her vigil to the world.
Not to mention the outlay on their party duds!
Sheehan's partisans also have become increasingly critical of the news media, complaining that reporters have questioned Sheehan's motivations and inquired about her family, her taxes and her husband's request for a divorce.
The aroma around St. Cindy got so bad that the MSM finally caught on? Can't prove it by me.
Women gathered in a tent for Code Pink, a peace group, looked ashen on hearing that Sheehan was leaving. A few began to cry as one spoke up to complain that the news media were trying to divide Sheehan's family. After a moment of silence they began singing We Shall Overcome.
No Kumbaya? The Code Pinkos shouldn't worry, they have People's Weekly World and Worker's World firmly on their side.

(Hat tip: FR poster JohnRoss for wading into the commie cesspool. Here's another that I didn't mention.)
