Sheehan, With Straight Face, Considers Run Against Pelosi

According to the AP:

Cindy Sheehan, the soldier's mother who galvanized the anti-war movement, said Sunday that she plans to seek House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's congressional seat unless she introduces articles of impeachment against President Bush in the next two weeks.

"That's right! If Pelosi does not seek to impeach Bush by July 23, I will run against her in 2008," Sheehan said with a straight face.

Sheehan claims the Democrats have "betrayed" the Americans who have voted them into office, and said, with a straight face, that she could give Pelosi a "run for her money."

Straight-faced supporters of Sheehan hope that this sends a message to the members of Congress.

"If Sheehan runs, I'll definitely vote for her to strike a blow against those who are in the pockets of the special interest groups," said Joan Gosford, whose face was straight.

Joel Wilson said that Sheehan should run against Pelosi whether or not impeachment proceedings occur.

"Sheehan is the voice of true Democrats and those who oppose the evil lies of the Bush fascist imperialistic administration. If she runs, I know for a fact that she will win," said Wilson.

After making the comment, witnesses noted that Wilson said them with a straight face.

There has been no official comment from the White House regarding their laughter at Sheehan's plans.
