    Other supporters, including Penn, Sarandon, novelist Alice Walker and actor Danny Glover will join a 'rolling" fast, a relay in which 2,700 activists pledge to refuse food for at least 24 hours, and then hand over to a comrade.


    Wow, that's putting your all behind it.
    ::)

    When I was in college, a protest group went on a hunger strike because they were upset that the CIA was doing job interviews on campus. The strikers made a big deal of sitting in the student union, so a conservative student group went and ate pizzas in front of them.

    Good point. They want to end the killing...so you wish them to die too.
    You must be a true patriot.

    Is your 'deathwish list' a long one Mr. True Patriot?
    Prey tell, who else is on that list?

    This isn't about me. It's Cindy's time in the spotlight. Again. :)

    Yeah, I'm sure it's all because she loves the attention. I know if my kid died in combat, the first thing I'd wonder is how can I get some face time out of this.

    Makes perfect sense.

    Of course. Whacko mother + media with an agenda + gullible viewers who believe what they hear = Consistent viewership

    Logic doesn't apply here, JME. Sheehan = raw meat for the right to devour. No explanation needed in their book: She just is....ick.
