Sheehan claims her campaign against Pelosi is being sabotaged

Cindy Sheehan, the peace-activist-mom who lost a son in Iraq and who gained national prominence by protesting outside of President Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas, says she has been the victim of "dirty tricks" in her campaign to dislodge House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in CA-08.

In her campaign blog earlier this week, Sheehan says that:

--Her hotel phone in Denver during the Democratic National Convention was "bugged."

--Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa personally intervened to stop her from speaking at a music festival.

--She was forced to file for a restraining order against a former volunteer who she says was sending threatening e-mails and who she now thinks was a "spy" for Nancy Pelosi.

--She was the victim of intentional vandalism when the tail lights of her RV were busted out.

--That one of her campaign interns was assaulted when she struggled against four men who walked into her office feigning that they wanted to register to vote but apparently intended to computer equipment instead.

--That she has been summoned to begin jury duty in San Francisco on the week of the Nov. 4 elections.

--That a recent round "robo calls" that she paid for began contacting voters at 10:30 p.m. on a recent weekend night instead of the early week night time slot she had scheduled.

Not that I think much of Cindy Sheehan, but I would put nothing past Pelosi, Tony the Weasel, or anyone else who has a vested interest in maintaining business as usual.

Looks like our "Madame Speaker" has indeed found a way to unite the country. Unfortunately for her, we are united against her. I disagree with Cindy Sheehan immensely on most of her political views, but I agree Pelosi has to go.

Is a dirty, nasty, pig of a woman. Im confident that most, if not all of these charges, are true in fact. Dirty politics from a disgusting scum, Ms Piglosi

I really dont believe that their is one sane person in Mexifornia.

There is indeed at least one. On ALIPAC I find our "mexifornia" to be both sane and intelligent

I stand corrected!!

--That she has been summoned to begin jury duty in San Francisco on the week of the Nov. 4 elections.

By my estimation, both Pelosi and Sheehan are losers. However, I do consider it odd that Sheehan would receive a jury duty summons during the week of the elections. Is this more than coincidence?

We should support Sheehan, she might pull enough votes away from Pelosi to allow the Republican candidate to win.

Amen Tbow! I cannot even stand to look at this sorry excuse of a so called "leader!" This woman is rotten to the core!
