Sheehan entourage moves off roadside, still near Crawford
I still think Thirdwave Dave phrased it best: It's time to go home, Cindy.
This is going to sound cruel, but the vision I have here is of Linus waiting in vain in that pumpkin patch in "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown."
AFP weighs in:
The high profile peace camp set up by anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan is to move from the roadside outside President George W. Bush's Texas ranch to a private property nearby following mounting hostilities with local residents.
But Sheehan, whose protest has come to symbolize rising anti-war sentiment among Americans, has insisted she will not abandon her demonstration until the president agrees to a meeting.
A source close to the activists at the camp said Sheehan has accepted an offer to move onto private land next to Bush's Prairie Chapel ranch following mounting tensions in recent days.
