3. Cindy Sheehan got arrested protesting John Conyers yesterday
It kind of puts our feelings about congressional democrats and Cindy Sheehan on the front burner.

6. I gather the main issue is whether or not Conyers will start
the ball rolling towards impeachment; or that is the chief disagreement between Cindy Sheehan and John Conyers (and Nancy Pelosi for that matter).

8. Cindy and OTHER PROMINENT ACTIVISTS including Ray McGovern
Edited on Tue Jul-24-07 03:03 PM by sfexpat2000
were arrested in John Conyers' office yesterday in front of a couple of hundred supporters. This isn't something Cindy whipped up to piss off DU, lol.

Their action was to present Mr. Conyers with a signed petition of over a million voters requesting impeachment.

And things deteriorated from there. There have been a couple of angry, hurt statements published. Here's Ray McGovern's:

17. Plus, it seemed like the Be Loyal And Shut Up crowd were vocal this week even
before the incident at Conyers' office.

DU is a weird place, no question: Last week the talk was was all imminent martial law, all the time; now we're being told to be pragmatic.:crazy:

20. Well, we have the Repubs on the run, so why not screw it up with impeachment?
Isn't that when Democrats are supposed to do, snatch defeat from the jaws of victory?
