Code Pinko Cindy Sheehan is blue about Israel.
But Hot Air affiliate Charles Ryder catches her looking plump and perky camping outside the Iraqi embassy in D.C.

Gotta love that moonbat fast. It’s Day 22, you know.

It’s Day 16 of the Troops Home Fast. Florida Cracker spotted Cindy Sheehan, Medea Benjamin, and Cynthia McKinney commiserating last night:

Remember Cindy Sheehan’s “hunger strike?” Remember I asked whether she would last longer than Saddam Hussein?
Well…
Kristinn Taylor at F/R points to Cindy’s latest blog entry on her, uh, progress (also posted at the Crawford Peace House site):
I find traveling out of the country very challenging being on a fast. When I was on a layover [...]

Over at Rantburg, they’ve pledged $300 for Cindy Sheehan’s one-way ticket to Venezuela.

Let’s reserve a seat for her Chavez-worshiping mentor, Medea Benjamin, too.

Her heart belongs to Hugo
I’ve done a little browsing on Expedia for Cindy Sheehan, who says she’d rather live under Venezuelan thug Hugo Chavez than in America (transcription below). (Here’s the video via Allah.) Here are current one-way ticket prices from NYC to Caracas:

Fund-raiser, anyone?
Stephen Spruiell at The Media Blog has a partial transcript.
I’m adding [...]

Jane Fonda explains why she has been AWOL from the moonbat protests.

Download and watch the video (Windows Media file).
From AP:
Jane Fonda says she would like to tour the country and speak out against U.S. involvement in Iraq, but her controversial history of Vietnam War protests leaves her with “too much baggage.”
“I wanted to do a [...]

Yaaawn. My friend Bryan Preston and I went to the moonbat fizzle in Washington, D.C. earlier today. Journalists and camera crews made up one-fifth of the crowd of about 100. (No sign of Susan Sarandon.) I interviewed several protesters, including, yes, Cindy Sheehan–who seemed to have no problem making the long walk from the Lincoln [...]

Much more on the March 11 event at Soldiers’ Angels.
I really don’t want to have to look at another photo of Sheehan, but more power to the counter-protesters!

Rep. Lynn Woolsey is the member of Congress reportedly responsible for giving Cindy Sheehan access to the State of the Union address last night. When it comes to whether she knew Sheehan would pull the stunt she pulled, Woolsey has absolutely no plausible deniability. She is one of disruptive guerilla group Code Pink’s biggest [...]

I had planned to be in D.C. tonight to join a cool bunch of bloggers at the State of the Union Bloggers Row sponsored by the House GOP Conference. Unfortunately, my son has a terrible stomach bug that requires Dr. Mom’s TLC. Don’t know if I’ll be able to catch the speech live, so check [...]
