So, Cindy She-beast’s mother had a stroke.

All those who remain skeptical please raise your hands.

A USA TODAY story Wednesday went into extensive detail about Cindy Sheehan growing increasingly disturbed over her own protest. According to the story, she was upset over its scale and in that it had stampeded far a field of her original purpose of stalking the president for a second meeting (her first meeting with him was June 24, 2004 at Ft. Lewis, near Seattle). The very next day she claimed that her mother had suffered a stroke and fled her own protest. What a coincidence - Cindy's newly found disillusionment with her protest and the timing of mother's stroke that is.

At the same time Debra Johns (Northern California Marine Moms), Melanie Morgan (KSFO) and I linked up with Move America Forward and announced next week’s YOU DON’T SPEAK FOR ME CINDY! Caravan to Crawford. Instantly the national media eye turned from Cindy to us and the caravan grew from a van from San Francisco to bus-loads of people from both coasts and in-between. Rallies and media events to counter the damage done by Sheehan are scheduled in major cities. In addition to San Francisco and Sacramento they include: Fresno, Los Angeles, San Diego, Phoenix, Albuquerque, Kansas City, Dallas, Atlanta and others (learn more here).

Forgive me if I conclude that our announcement was the straw that broke the lunatic camel's back and that she just bailed on her own cause. Her whole life has afterall become about bailing out on her son's memory, what's one more bail?

If the mother who spawned this vile woman is indeed ill we all wish her a speedy recovery and long life.

So; where do I send the flowers - what facility is mom in? Anybody hear, read or see anything in the way of a medical professional issuing a statement? What happened to the supposed cause of She-beast’s vigil? If mom is ill that is sad, but wasn’t Casey Sheehan’s death the center of the known universe?

I’ll believe the stroke story when I see a guy in a white coat confirming it at a press conference….and not the guy in the white coat whom I firmly believe is waiting in the wings to escort Cindy Sheehan off stage complete with a jacket with extra-long sleeves and lots of shiny buckles. In the meantime, based on She-beast's well established record of using family members as props for her own delusions I will default to doubting her story.
