Rev Al Sharpton Comin' to the Party in Crawford
 Hat tip LGF. I sure hope the next party crasher brings some cold beer or ice.
The Rev. Al Sharpton plans to join peace activist Cindy Sheehan, known as Holy Mother Sheehan by the normally atheistic anti-military Kos Kids & DU crowd the Peace Mom, on Sunday near President Bush's Texas ranch.
Wonder if he knows the Aryan Nations are coming?
Sharpton's office said Thursday he would participate in a choreographed media event prayer vigil Sunday with Sheehan in Crawford, Texas. Sheehan returned on Wednesday to Camp Casey, named after her 24-year-old son, Army Spc. Casey Sheehan, who was killed last year in Iraq.
Sheehan began her vigil on the road leading to Bush's ranch Aug. 6, vowing to stay through sweeps week his monthlong vacation unless he met with her. She left last week to visit her 74-year-old mother, who had suffered a stroke, in Los Angeles.
 Sheehan's protest in Crawford has encouraged loons from every bizarre interest group anti-war activists to join her and prompted yawning peace vigils nationwide. But Sheehan continues to draw harsh criticism from those who think her fifteen minutes were up a long time ago support the U.S. effort in Iraq. Sheehan plans to leave Crawford at the end of August and embark on a bus tour ending in Washington, D.C., on Sept. 24.
If she wraps it up at the White House, it sounds more like she's a "Stalker Mom" than a "Peace Mom".
