39. I was with Cindy at Camp Casey the day after she returned from
Edited on Tue Feb-16-10 09:37 PM by Subdivisions
her trip to Jordan. We were under and tent and a speaker introduced Cindy to those present and, in the back, a man, older and obviously a hard-core Texan conservative and most definately a veteran, suddenly started yelling at her that she was "soiling the memory" of her son and all those that have served and died in war. Now, I don't remember all the exact words, but let me tell you...Cindy let that man have it, albeit with as much respect as she could muster under the circumstances. And, she did it with knowledge, while the man spewed nothing but venom he learned from fux snooze. Because Cindy had purchased the property in Crawford, naming it Camp Casey, the man was on HER property. As such, he was invited to leave.

She is currently organizing a sit-in on the grounds of the Washington Monument and engage in civil disobedience actions in D.C. in protest of war. You can get info on that event here: http://www.peaceoftheaction.org.
