Cindy Sheehan, the soldier’s mother who galvanized an anti-war movement with her monthlong protest outside President Bush’s ranch, said Tuesday she’s done being the public face of the movement."I’ve been wondering why I’m killing myself and wondering why the Democrats caved in to George Bush," Sheehan told The Associated Press while driving from her property in Crawford to the airport, where she planned to return to her native California.
"I’m going home for awhile to try and be normal," she said.
In what she described as a "resignation letter," Sheehan wrote in her online diary on the Daily Kos blog: "Good-bye America … you are not the country that I love and I finally realized no matter how much I sacrifice, I can’t make you be that country unless you want it.
"It’s up to you now."
Good luck Mother Sheehan….you know: with trying to be normal and all that; we’ll try and go on without you….*sniff*…. Don’t let the door hit your fanny on the way out…get along home now, ya hear?
Ahh… the classic “Get along home” video! Perfect timing.
You notice we’re also coming up on a full moon? We’ve correlated Sheehan sightings and the full moon on a number of occasions.
I hope she does go home. I just wonder where home is. Flopping Aces readers may recall that she used to live in Vacaville California. When she started her big push for celebrity the resident of Vacaville banded together and volunteered labor and materials to help Ms. Sheewitch fix up her house. A few months later she sold it and moved to Berkely to be closer to her friends.
This woman is too much of a media whore to ever go away and be “normal.” Even her exit here it’s all about HER.
You can expect her to crop up again soon and just watch, it will likely be when there is a full moon.
Nothing quite like being in the limelight to announce that you are leaving the limelight.
Curt’s gonna have a fun time reading the comments from the KosKiddies and DUmmies…pull out the tissues and hankies, boys.
Cindy WHO?
As happy as I am to see this annoying pimple go away, could she believe her damage is done – so her need to be a public blemish is waning?
