CRAWFORD, Texas, Aug 16 (Reuters) - Antiwar protester Cindy Sheehan, whose son was killed in Iraq, is moving her camp closer to President George W. Bush's Texas ranch.

The piece of private property was offered by a relative of a man who had a fired shotgun in frustration over the protests, a source in the Sheehan camp said. The property owner is also a veteran

1. That's interesting.
That shows you what kind of rows the family must be in over this.

2. Good point. Now they can't fault Cindy for the fact that she and her
family may disagree about some things.

Actually, there was a post about this at truthout.org. It was really heartwarming - these people offering her the use of their land.

Lance should veer off the path and stop to talk to Cindy. Just do it Lance!

6. The vets reassembling the crosses on TV are poison to the brownshirters
Any vet has got to be upset by that display of "giving the finger" to our soldiers.

8. charges
Cindy didn't file charges against the man who run over the cross, she is unbelievable, she is so peaceful, i admire her very much, i don't believe i could be peaceful myself, with what i heard the brown shirts are doing to Cindy's group.

Hi everybody, i use to be a member of DU but been off line for a while.

12. She didn't?
Wow. First she invites any pro-Bush people to come over and talk and that one guy went over and now this. Wow. What a wonderful person! I can't believe people are slamming someone like her, well then again knowing who they're dealing with of course I can imagine. Hi. Welcome back. :hi:

16. She's practicing the art of passive resistance
as did Jane Fonda when some knuckle-dragging neanderthal spit tobacco juice over her, or when Gandi's followers were beaten by the British during the salt march.

7. CNN Dana Bash said they could see Bush riding his bike from this farm!!!
Woohoo, what's little Georgie going to do now. Just now on CNN, Anderson Cooper show, Dana Bash reported that they have been on the farm just a mile from Bush's ranch where Cindy is moving to, and reporters could even see Bush bike riding over on his property.

13. He'll be forced to sulk in the bunkhouse poor buckeroo!
This is just getting better and better, isn't it? I heard Andersen say they would be there live tomorrow.

Unfortunately Dana said only 25 at the camp at any one time. Does that sound a little undercounted to you?

9. Does anyone need any more proof of the way Bush united us?
How long ago did he promise that? 2000? I am sure he didn't repeat the promise in 2004. Instead, he said 'yer either withthus or 'ginst' us. So much for unity.

We will never be united as long as corporations, politicians, and military brass love the money of war and as long as we are suckered into it.

Are we on the brink of a divorce in this country kicked off with this peaceful protest? Well, peaceful on one side.

Can't we have a conciliatory divorce?

We get to keep our Constitution and the Bill of Rights and improve on it.

14. I think it's been amazing
We're all so united. Even at the DNC convention just watching it on CSPAN you can feel and see the unity! I love it! I think, hopefully, we'll be this way for a long time. :) I really love it.
