.. The president traditionally spends a long August vacation at the ranch, but this year he is curtailing his holiday to a fortnight - ending it days before the advertised start of Ms Sheehan's protest.

"We are beginning to believe that he is frightened of us," she wrote in a message to supporters, adding that this year's campaign would begin two days earlier than scheduled, "so we can at least share part of the summer with Georgie" ..

3. The coward is scared....

...of a girl. (A very brave and patriotic girl. I predict that Ms. Sheehan will achieve the same status as Rosa Parks).

[ClassWarrior]

6. These cowards are scared of everything...

...and are willing to throw away everything that's great about America out of fear.

NGU.

7. Hell they cut and ran while I was bleeding in Nam you bet they are

COWARDS

[niyad]

4. let's see--the world is facing serious problems, ones which just MIGHT

merit the attention of a caring, and competent president, who wouldn't dream of taking a vacation at such a time, but THIS clown is going to cut his by two weeks because of a woman.

way to go, little boots.

10. Ms. Sheehan won!

11. Isn't just too bad that Cindy Sheehan had bought land

right next to bushie, bushie is nothing but a coward, hey, maybe we should surround the WH, now that would be interesting wouldn't it?

[havocmom]

12. Worked with Nixon

Unable to go out due to constant protests, Nixon had to resort to talking to portraits in the WH.

W can talk to the voices in his head

13. Any buyers yet for the pig farm

Anyone heard anything more about the sale?

14. Just have to be impressed

by this tactical move of C. Sheehan's, whether it was all her idea or she had others behind her. Come to think of it, she may have planned better than all of the * group did with Iraq??

[proud patriot]

15. bush is a chicken shit coward

and so are all those who like him .

[driver8]

16. "A long August vacation..."??? Now that's an understatement.

Bush is a fucking coward. He ran to his ranch and hid after seeing a memo "Bin Laden determined to strike US" and he is running from his ranch because of some protesters.

I will be so glad when I never have to hear his name or see his face or listen to his bullshit accent ever again.

17. Actually

I think he was at the ranch when given the Aug 6th PDB...then he went fishing....

[niyad]

18. sorry, he was already AT the ranch for the PDB of 8/6-- and it didn't

register with him at all. he didn't pay it the slightest bit of attention.

19. Bush* the chickenshithawk.
