Alert: Gitmo ruling handed down. The Supreme Court in effect says that, if I understand this correctly, we're supposed to give terrorists geneva convention rights even though they will never, ever afford us the same rights.
The media says that the ruling says that "President Bush overstepped his authority in ordering military war crimes trials for Guantanamo Bay detainees."

This has been around for a bit - CNSNews was spreading it around. I posted on the 22nd about it (click thru my name to read). Or you can read the following summary: Bush's playtime in Iraq is up, because surely once America learns that Dick Gregory is skipping snacks for a day they're surely going to attack the White House with rage and demand our retreat from Iraq...once they figure out who Dick Gregory is. Wonder if it'll last as long as Saddam's hunger strike? For those keeping score, that would be one (1) meal.

I am not a psychiatrist but it just appears that Cindy Sheehan is mentally ill. The Far Left knows this and are pathetically using her. BTW Marc, isn't a headstone provided by the military? When my father died, the military provided his headstone since he was a veteran. Maybe nutty Cindy told them she didn't want it.

What's the point of a hunger strike?
Geez.
What happened to the spark in that human dynamo?
She's almost got the initial grief out of her system, maybe?
Yeah, that's probobly it.
Now she needs to get on with life.
Oh...but wait a minute.
People from the United States of America are still taking hits and falling in pieces into the Middle East dust.
That's a problem.
Mm hmm.
So maybe Cindy should chase down two cheeseburgers with a power drink...and come back out swinging?

I imagine it's the sort of fast that involves eating. Maybe a dawn to dusk one like Moslems do? Who knows. Maybe just suppers? That would make sense with the "last supper" phrase.
Of course it's an attention getting ploy.
Religious sorts generally fast for their own spiritual growth, to practice self-denial and to pray.
BTW... I'm pretty sure that Casey has his headstone now.

While not surprising that the Cashew is doing this, it is a surprise that Moore isn't participating. Cheeseburgers, apparently are more important than a lame cause.
I think that the most support for Cindy will come for those hoping to see her shrivel away (her mental state would suggest accelerated stages).
Last I heard about the whole headstone gig was that Cindy left it alone; much like she did when she gave up Casey after her first marriage. Nice work, really classy.
