Cindy Sheehan and bad things happening to her
Don't freak out about rumors. Check them out first please. There will be lots of rumors and we all expect the worst, but please take time to double check before you post of reply.

I hate Mr.bush and his evil minions and expect them to pull anything they can. But please take time to double check. Even (oh dang was it KOS? DSM website? one of this sort) got duped last night by an old story. It happens to us all. Thank you.

And, if it happens, please delete or edit to change heading if you can. And thanks to everyone who has so far. Peace to you all.

3. Update from Cindy
via dailykos:

Day 3 of the Peace Occupation of Crawford
by CindySheehan
Mon Aug 8th, 2005 at 21:10:24 PDT

Camp Casey
Day 3
The Peaceful Occupation of Camp Crawford

Where do I begin?

Today was a highly eventful day. This entry won't be artful, but utilitarian.

* CindySheehan's diary :: ::

I conservatively got 3 to 5 phone calls a minute. I did about 25 phone interviews and several TV interviews. I did several right-wing radio interviews. I was supposed to do: The Today Show, MSNBC live interview, Connected Coast to Coast (MSNBC) and Hardball (MSNBC). The Today Show just never showed up and the other 3 MSNBC shows cancelled for no reason. Could it be because NBC is owned by General Electric, a major defense contractor??

Another big story that was going on today was about my first meeting with Bush in June of 2004. For you all I would like to clarify a few things. First of all, I did meet with George, and that is not a secret. I have written about it and been interviewed about it. I will stand by my recounting of the meeting. His behavior was rude and inappropriate. My behavior in June of 2004 and is irrelevant to what is going on in 2005. I was in deep shock and deep grief. The grief is still there, but the shock has worn off and the deep anger has set in. And to remind everybody, a few things have happened since June of 2004: The 9/11 commission report; the Senate Intelligence report; the Duelfer WMD report; and most damaging and criminal: the Downing Street Memos. The VERY LAST THING I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THIS IS: Why do the right wing media so assiduously scrutinize the words of a grief filled mother and ignore the words of a lying president?

5. I agree...cindy is not being starved or deprived of water
or we would have heard about it in the 9:30 (central) post from Dylan Garcia. Cindy can take care of herself. She's a very smart woman. Lets all support her in any way we can while remaining calm and rational.

7. Very True!
What amazing groups you have there in Texas and we are very thankful. Louisiana Activist Networks sends its support. We have activists and a legal team on their way as well as financial donations.

Louisiana is behind you Cindy and CPH. We appreciate what you're doing.

:hi:
