Disorderly Conduct does NOT sound like a good idea:

Cindy Sheehan to speak in Greenfield
GREENFIELD - Cindy Sheehan, the mother who became a
national symbol of opposition to the Iraq war after her soldier son died
there, will be in Greenfield on Saturday as part of a public forum called
"Ending the War in Iraq: Is Impeachment Necessary?"

The forum, presented by the Western Massachusetts Progressive
Democrats of America, will be held at 7 p.m. at the Greenfield Middle
School.

This is Sheehan's first visit to Greenfield.

Sheehan is the mother of Casey Sheehan, who was killed in an
ambush in Baghdad in April 2004. She attracted international attention in
August 2005 when she set up camp outside President George Bush's ranch in
Crawford, Texas, in protest of his policies in Iraq.

Besides traveling throughout the country to speak out against the war, she
is a co-founder of Gold Star Families for Peace, author of "Peace Mom: A
Mother's Journey Through Heartbreak to Activism," and a board member of
the Progressive Democrats of America, which is presenting the forum.

What's your problem?  The article says nothing about disorderly conduct.

What are you all cranked up about?  There's no mention of "disorderly
conduct" in the article.

I'm not a fan of Dr Phil but I happen to catch a teaser while flipping
through the channels. This woman has 10 acres and has 200 cats. They had
taped phone conversations of her threatening her neighbors that have
complained. She said she was granted a license for a sanctuary, but to Dr
Phil's credit he immediately said she was misrepresenting the truth. The
truth was the sanctuary was only allowing 4 cats and if she indeed loved
those cats why is she ignoring the fact that the town or city's only
alternative was to put them to sleep if she wouldn't get her act together.
After all the things Dr Phil said he was willing to do to help her out, she
looks at him and says, But did you see my cat's faces and how happy they
are? Oh, he snapped back and said if you don't want my help  keep screwing
around.

I think a majority of them come from Florida.

Why do you think Greenfield was chosen? Seems rather odd.

Not at all! While we may not be quite as bad as Amherst/NOHO, this area is
a stornghold for k00ks. Remember my numerous posts about people screaming
for Alternative energy up here, and then when Franklin County is chosen as
s ite for Wind power or Wood Chip power, it's "Oh, NO! Not here!!!"

They want ot both ways, but aren't willing to pay anything for it! Typical
whiney @ss Granola eating Earthy-Crunchies...and NIMBYS (actually I still
like COVE better. It describes the situation MUCH better (COVE: Citizens
Opposed to Virtually Everything...) Yup! Fits like a glove!

Also...the home of Al Norman...

http://www.sprawl-busters.com/

GOOD political Cartoon in the Greenfield paper today...showed a guy who
looked like Al with a STOP SPRAWL Sign saying "We need Open spaces"
talking to a girl with a "Shop Locally" button on her shirt, and a line of
cars passing farms and tobacco fields into NOHO, and the proposed site of
the new "Big Box" store in Greenfield with the unused oil trucks sitting
there.

Hmmm...there was a guy in his early 50's sitting at the bar paying an
awful lot of attention when my band got up.

Course, he could have been eyeballing Cindy. She's not a ravishing beauty,
but she has a cuteness that's hard to ignore.

I finally told her husband the drummer how I got hooked up with them...

I was hitting on Cindy at an open mic. Didn't know they were married!
It has turned out to be a great friendship between all three of us!

Why would you get into "Disorderly Conduct" simply because you tihink
someone's nuts?  Are you sure you are well-balanced?

Whoever said that?!?!

I would love to go disrupt her k00k speech! I won't, and I won't even go
listen to her, although I should.

I screwed up real bad. When I was in College, I took 3 years of
psychology, and dropped out. I had a real knack for it, all my teachers
were impressed, all my friends predicted great things for me. But I
decided I liked playing Bass better, even knowing I would never get the
'break', and Technology. I've had some real good jobs, made decent money,
but I would have done better as a Psych. I decided I couldn't take
listening to k00ks.

I'd like to go just to size her up. From what I've seen of her on TV, read
about her and heard about her, I already have her sized up as someone
needed Professional Help. You know, the distant stare...when they talk to
you, they're looking past you with a sparkle in the eye. I'd bet my
reputation on it.

But the Conservative in me would just want to stand up and yell "BULLSHIT"
every time she said something asinine. Which I'm sure she would. Often.
This woman is the poster child for a number of things, none of them
worthwhile.

Even the Democrats gave up on her shortly after taking her under their
wing. They used her for all she was worth, and dropped her on the next
block like a cheap date...

Has Massachusetts degenerated so far that the land of Adams, Emerson,
Thoreau and Webster is no longer a place where people get together to trade
ideas, listen and learn?  The ante-bellum Lyceum was an inportant part of
New England culture for many years.  Are you all content to listen to Faux
News, now, and to swallow whatever the Administration tells you without
question?  Frankly, I thought the best thing about that article wasn't Cindy
Sheehan or the topic of the forum but the idea that the spirit of the Lyceum
still lives.

That description also fits visionaries and prophets.

You know, instead of having a cow over Cindy Sheehan attending this forum
(and where would the US be today, if we had never risen up and protested
what we thought were injustices?), you might consider the following actions:

1.    Get down on your knees and spend a good, long while thanking God that
one of *your* children didn't get killed in Iraq and ask for God's help and
understanding to put yourself in the place those who have lost children,
like Cindy Sheehan, many other military moms and the hundreds of thousands
of bereaved Iraqis.  Ask for God's enlightenment on the value of our foreign
policy in light of the Second Great Commandment.  You might also pray that
the war ends before one of your children faces a draft.

2.    Ask yourself whether or not losing additional lives is likely to
achieve any significant result.  Ask what has been accomplished to date.
Ask what happened to the Administration's assurances that we would be
welcomed as liberators.

3. Surf on over to operation-helmet.org and help save some lives.

- OR -

You could just drink the Kool-Aid, accept the Chickenhawk's notion that
Cindy Sheehan's long-range plan in life was to get one of her sons killed
for her own political gain and, the next time Liberals get together to
protest the war, go participate in a counter-protest to show you "support
the troops."

1. Do you even know what the Lyceum movement was?

2. Prove she's a kook.  Adams was a radical.  Do you know anything about
Thoreau?  Or Emerson?

I can see which plan you adopted.  I'm not surprised but I am disappointed.

Of course.

I don't have to prove she's a k00k. She does an excellent job all by
herself.

In an admittedly brief flash, I just wondered if Cindy (the Dem's Darling)
has her picture, with Hugo Chavez, on Hillarys office wall?

Hach I still get to ABIF some but trying to arrange care home for mom (89)
so time for surfing  limited.
