Crosses & Flags Run Over By Nice Guy In Pickup Truck



About an hour ago, wegot a phone call from our friends up at Camp Casey saying that the line of gravemarkers along the road (Arlington West) had been run over. People there said that as they were talking to a few members of the press, a pick-up truck came down the road and stopped at the fork by the edge of the tents. The driver then jumped out and attached a pipe to the undercarriage with a chain and began to "swerve into the line of crosses," said Tammara Rosenleaf from Montana. "Then we heard the pipe being dragged over the gravemarkers and the pick-up's wheels crushing them."

Out of the 800 crosses, 500 were knocked down and 100 are irreperable. However, the driver was arrested by the local authorities. This is a prime example of how the Crawford sheriff's department has helped to protect us and our freedom of speech over the past week and a half. A big thank you to them!

Nice one, dude. Show 'em how you treat grieving mothers! Yeah!

Well, they say that everything's bigger in Texas. Guess that applies to the assholes as well.

I suppose that the nice man in the pick-up truck was out to change the hearts and minds of America and is a member of the vast right wing conspiracy. He was probably listening to Rush Limbaugh too. hehehe.

I love Texas -- lived there myself as a kid.

But Mr. Truck Driver messed up.

I can see the Limbaugh/Hannity spin coming: "The moonbats hired the guy themselves, just to get more attention...!"

Yep, he ran over crosses representing American war dead, AND American flags. Can't be more of an "America hater" than that, can you? But the neocons will still hold this guy up to be a hero who's being "persecuted for expressing his ideals".

Maybe he just thought it was a really big cross burning and he was trying to stomp it out before it began. I think considering the locale it's an honest mistake.

Also, per CNN Cindy's husband is divorcing her.

Can't wait to see how Drudge spins this.

Over on antiwar.com, Paul Craig Roberts has published an article called "Get Ready for World War III", in which he concludes "The Bush Administration is insane". The same could be said of many of its supporters.

Did anyone get the license plate number from this wack job? No doubt, the good, troop supporting citizens of Crawford TX know who did it, but none will speak up.

The purple shrouds are tightening around the necks of the Bush Apologists.

Peace.Cindy Sheehan's husband(seperated) filed for divorce. It is obvious that the husband could have waited. Whether he was paid or otherwise rewarded for this, the timming will only cause deep trouble for Ms. Sheehan. Her husband is cruel. It is getting ugly. One of the long time members at The Southern Leadership Conference was down at Camp Casey giving classes on non - nonviolent protest(see vid truthout). Today Waco is applying in court to evict everybody from Camp Casey. The good news is one of Bush's neighbors has offered an acre for Camp Casey to move to. No real agreement yet. I think the best move is if the court orders removal is to perform civil disobedience and then when released to move to the offered area from the neighbor. With recent violence by Bushusefools has only heightened the Media watch and I'm sure a whole lot of cameras from regular joes and jammeekas would plaster the web with pics of the arrests. If this happens they will need bail folks.
So they either can continue to get arrested or settle at Camp Casey. When Camp Casey follows the Liar in Chief to DC I'll be there. The more the merrier. If enough people are will to do non -violent protest we can overwhelm them with numbers. If 100,000 are will to be arrested at say a rate of 5,000 a day, I think we will topple the government. Either way we have to try. It has gone on long enough. In our name. yf Human

Peace to all. To sans - culotte How about a bunch of dead black roses? Someone from Fla. sent 35 red roses to Cindy in response to the desecration driveby. Or how about 35 pics of victims of Bush's Culture of Death? Naw, sick zealots have too hard head for anything like reality to enter. Please lets not be threatening. Let us make sure that they are the ones who are on the wrong side of the line. Let us put our energy to something constructive. Like maybe sending 33 cents to Crawford Peace House, or sending a thank you note to someone like Rep. Maxine Waters who brought goodies and moral support. This protest is gonna grow. It is a dangerous situation. A Camp Casey Lawyer says that a Waco council vote can't take place for a month (truthout). If so, Ms. Sheehan and Camp Casey 1(there are others forming around the country) are moving to DC. We will need money to bail us out. As for the angry driveby guy I think that Ms. Sheehan or someone else should take a restraining order against the man. That way he can't return till the camp goes to DC anyway. yf Human

You know some one suggested that if the president had just invited her in an met w/ her, you know being that she's just disraught lady who could maybe use a helping hand, You know give her 5 minutes of his vaction, her son died under his command, just as a courtesy give the lady 5 minutes if she needs to scream at him to get on w/ her life, let her who cares right, stand up be man and help this lady fix her life....instead his failure to act has let her make him look like a fool, like he's hiding from her be hind his office, and now things are just getting out of hand, you know this is his fault for not managing the situation, its like he doesn't care about her, what kind of great father does not come to one of his children when she cries out in pain for him, even if she is going to blame him for it?

Peace. A Report by MFSO Members in Crawford, Texas

Over 40 MFSO members have traveled to Crawford, Texas to join Cindy Sheehan in calling on the President to meet with Cindy and to end the war in Iraq. They wrote this report to let other families and supporters around the country know about their experiences George Bush's ranch, about their family member in the military and about their dedication to bringing the troops home. If you have a loved one in the military and you are against the war in Iraq, please join your voice to ours by sending an e-mail to mfso@mfso.org.

I found these folks at their table Oct. 25th 2003 in DC "Bring back the Troops" protest. A man tabling thrust a whole bunch of their flash card messages in my hand and asked mre to give them out. I chucked a twenty in the bucket and he gave me a whole bunch more. I have 1 left. I'll keep that one. Without the dards to hands out consider this above in the same vein.

Cindy Sheehan needs a good srubbing. This woman looks filthy ever since she started hanging out with the Michael Moore Body Odor Club. Just looking at this woman's face spoils my appetite. Why is it that liberal women are rarely hot?
