Cindy Sheehan bought 5 acres of land near Shrub's ranch in Crawford.

She's on Stephanie Miller's show talking about it. She said they passed zoning restrictios that would prevent them from setting up camp Casey this year, so they bought 5 acres of their own.

After they get the US out of Iraq and Shrub is out of office, they're donating the land to Crawford to be set up as the Casey Sheehan Memorial Park, with some playground equipment etc.

2. I'm sorry, I signed on to DU a little late today and didn't see it.. I bet

Shrub is just thrilled to have HER as his new neighbor!!!!!

3. Don't be sorry! And yes, now Ms. Sheehan will be a bona fide

resident of Crawford!:rofl:

4. That's a good idea. Although, I must say

that considering their qualifications for turning it into a park, it will never become a park.

The US will never get out of Iraq, and we will never get Bush (and then his BushCo cronies) out of office.

5. I welcome another opportunity to comment on this brilliant move....

I hope there are no city codes which restrict what type of signs she can erect on her property and I hope it's a necessary drive by for Bush! Let him spend some of his money to pave a private diversion path to his ranch! HA! Good for her!!!!!

6. There's still going to be a peace rally in Crawford next month, right?

Presumably on Cindy's five acre plot? If so, we are so there.

7. I believe that's the reason she bought the land.

As a property owner, there are very few restrictions like those the City passed to stop her from camping in the drainage ditch, or turning some neighbors against other neighbors because some supported Cindy and some didn't.

8. Then I reckon I'd better ship some more gel-ice packs to the Peace House

Summer's hot down here!
