Ch 5 reports State Rep Sen Becky Lourie joining Cindy Sheehan in TX

[kikiek]

Ch 5 called it a WAMM camp. Of course having lost her son this year in Iraq she will provide much comfort to Cindy Sheehan.

1. Very good*** Colleen Rowley is headed there as well.

Maxine Waters.

Do the women legislators lead the men now 3 to 1?

Come on boys. Let's get a little healthy competition going!!

2. That's great! Collen Rowley was there at the very beginning

She followed Cindy after her speech at the VFP convention.

3. I've got to get on with my life....

President Bush says he can't meet with Cindy Sheehan because he must get on with his life...all the while he endangers ours with his policies. To those who say Iraq is flypaper, I say, "you are right; it is America who has flown into it."

4. I like that analogy. Very fitting.

7. Yeah, it's easy for Dubya to say he needs to get on with

his life. He hasn't lost a kid in Iraq.

Welcome to DU mndfl! :hi:

6. I don't understand why half the Democratic party isn't down there

Oh wait, yes I do . . .

[Spike from MN]

8. Heh heh heh.

Yeah, doing something like that would mean actually taking a stand on an issue. Ain't gonna happen.

Actually, it's probably better that they're not down there because it would just be used against Cindy and might take away from her message. Not that the "liberal" media would allow something like that to happen, mind you. :eyes:

[goodhue]

9. I wish Becky Lourey would run for US Senate

She has a lot more courage than Klobuchar & Wetterling, and would make the war a major issue of her candidacy, which it should be . . .

[kikiek]

10. Yes..there is Doran saw him on Ch 5 show. He sounded good. I am

going to be watching him. He would be a strong candidate. There is another one too, but I can't recall his name.

[goodhue]

11. Ford Bell is the other

Bell is the only one talking about need for a withdrawal plan. The other three pretty much stick to the we must stay the course line.
