"Look," she said, the chicken breast on her plate untouched. "I had, for five months, people sitting outside my home, going into my garden in San Francisco, angering neighbors, hanging their clothes from trees, building all kinds of things -- Buddhas? I don't know what they were -- couches, sofas, chairs, permanent living facilities on my front sidewalk."
Unsmilingly, she continued: "If they were poor and they were sleeping on my sidewalk, they would be arrested for loitering, but because they have 'Impeach Bush' across their chest, it's the First Amendment."
Interesting, no wonder Cindy Sheehan wants to run against her.
Funny stuff. I do actually feel bad for her. Who wants a bunch of Bay Area wack jobs living on the sidewalk in front of your house. I'm all for free speech but I also believe in a fair amount of courtesy and common sense to go along with it.
The reality is though that they ran their campaigns based on Bush derangement syndrome and ending the war immediately. Then they got the congress and their looney base expected them to actually deliver. Sheehan might actually be able to beat her in that district too because it is so radical there.
