Sheehan Ultimatum

God I swear to you all I couldn't make this up if I tried. Cindy Sheehan is threatening to run against Nancy Pelosi if she does not introduce legislation to impeach President Bush within the next two weeks. It's like a Republican wet dream or something.

Cindy Sheehan, the soldier's mother who galvanized the anti-war movement, said Sunday that she plans to seek House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's congressional seat unless she introduces articles of impeachment against President Bush in the next two weeks.

Sheehan said she will run against the San Francisco Democrat in 2008 as an independent if Pelosi does not seek by July 23 to impeach Bush. That's when Sheehan and her supporters are to arrive in Washington, D.C., after a 13-day caravan and walking tour starting next week from the group's war protest site near Bush's Crawford ranch.

"Democrats and Americans feel betrayed by the Democratic leadership," Sheehan told The Associated Press. "We hired them to bring an end to the war. I'm not too far from San Francisco, so it wouldn't be too big of a move for me. I would give her a run for her money."

Do you Democrats now see the monster you've created? You were all for pumping up her fame and message when she was spewing hate against Republicans, now that you haven't done exactly what she wants you to do, she's turned her venom against you. She's now your problem and Republicans are more then happy to laugh at you for it. Of course this also shows what Cindy is willing to do. If Nancy doesn't introduce legislation and Cindy doesn't run, it will cement her reputation as a liar and an opportunist. Either way the wind blows is a win for Republicans.

During the 2006 elections, you promised America that you would end the war in Iraq, get rid of the "culture of corruption", work with Republicans, raise the minimum wage, make Congressional members work 5 day work weeks, and provide the American public with the "most open and honest Congress in history".

Well the only thing you managed to do out of that entire list is the minimum wage increase. Now 7 months into your new found power and nothing really to show for it, your constituents are rightfully pissed at you. Now, one of their most famous members is turning on you simply because you can't do your job effectively. Had you not alienated Republicans and actually kept your "work with Republicans" promise, you might have actually gotten some of those things done, but you were too drunk with power and now you have consequences to face. Ha ha motherfuckers.
