Thursday 7:15 AM From truthout & Will Pitt
t r u t h o u t | One Mother's Stand
By William Rivers Pitt

Thursday 11 August 2005
7:21 AM

The sun came up hazy this morning, with the sky divided between blue and high clouds. It feels like a hot one coming on, in more ways than one

I got a call from the campsite at five thirty this morning. Apparently, fourteen white Secret Service SUVs went blasting up the road. It was almost certainly either a security shift change or augmentation, but it made all the demonstrators cat-nervous.

We are getting coffee and are on the way in.

2. I wish they wouldn't get nervous about this caravan.
That's showing "them" that they're winning. It's hard to say this 'cause I'm not there and I wish I could be.

I just want to send them good vibes somehow.

3. FOURTEEN secret service SUVs on shift change.
What is * so bloody terrified of? Next they'll be patrolling the road with tanks. I'm sure the borders of his "ranch" have got the very latest and best surveillance equipment - and his SS guards have the best bulletproof vests - not like those very old and not too effective ones worn by our national guard in Iraq. When do the black helicopters start hovering over Cindy?

4. wouldn't you be afraid if you tried to be a dictator in a democracy
and people actually noticed? And showed up to ask you about it?

5. It's not like Cindy Sheehan and her supporters are trying
to storm the place. They are just staying along the small piece of roadside. Physical threat to anyone? NO!!
