Well Pelosi is in for it now. Ma Sheehan's gonna take her House seat away.:rolleyes:
Sheehan has got to be the most out of touch "fool" to come along in a very long time. Of course the people that voted Pelosi in are capable of being "foolish" enough to think Ma Sheehan could actually do something in DC.

CRAWFORD, Texas | Cindy Sheehan said Sunday that she plans to run against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi unless she introduces articles of impeachment against President Bush in the next two weeks.
Sheehan, the soldierÂ’s mother who galvanized the anti-war movement, said she will run against the San Francisco Democrat in 2008 as an independent if Pelosi does not seek by July 23 to impeach Bush. ThatÂ’s when Sheehan and her supporters are to arrive in Washington, D.C., after a 13-day caravan that will begin at the groupÂ’s war protest site near BushÂ’s Crawford ranch.
“Democrats and Americans feel betrayed by the Democratic leadership,” Sheehan said. “We hired them to bring an end to the war. I’m not too far from San Francisco, so it wouldn’t be too big of a move for me. I would give her a run for her money.”
She plans her official candidacy announcement Tuesday.
Sheehan announced in late May that she was leaving the anti-war movement. She said she felt her efforts had been in vain and that she had endured smear tactics and hatred from the left as well as the right.
Sheehan said Bush should be impeached because she believes he misled the public about the reasons for going to war, violated the Geneva Conventions by torturing detainees, and crossed the line by commuting the prison sentence of former vice presidential aide I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby. She said other grounds for impeachment are the domestic spying program and the response to Hurricane Katrina.
