What the hell kind of “fast” is this?
Fast? You mean “breakfast,” Mommie Dearest Sheehan?
I find traveling out of the country very challenging being on a fast. When I was on a layover in Madrid on my way to Venice, Italy yesterday, the closest thing I could find to a smoothie to get a little protein was a coffee with vanilla ice cream in it. Traveling for 22 hours is very taxing under normal circumstances–but then again, when have we had normal circumstances since the 2000 and 2004 successful coup attempts that have brought BushCo into power?
I traveled from Venice to the frontier of Italy to the province of Udine which is right at the foot of the pre-Alps. I am here for a huge youth festival which includes many elements of social justice and peace work. It is beautiful and the air feels different from other places that I have travelled. It is strangely soft and gentle as is the natural light. However, there is not a Jamba Juice on every corner, so blended juice drinks with protein powder are impossible to find.
What the fark, “fasting?” That’s “fasting?” What a sad, pathetic joke! Unreal!

I only ever eat ice cream when I’m on a hunger strike. It’s only right.

Cindy Sheehan reminds me of one of my favorite quotes:
“Just when I think you’ve said the stupidest thing ever, you just keep talking.”
(damned if I can’t remember where I heard that though :P)
Daniel says:
I’ve heard of fasting where you don’t eat anything and just drink one kind of fresh fruit juice for a week or so. That supposedly cleans your system out. Can’t say I’ve ever tried it tho.
Her system, however, is probably beyond cleaning. Imagine all the bile and crud caked up inside her. A week-long enema couldn’t clean her out.
MY Vast Right Wing Conspiracy » Blog Archive » Mommie Dearest Sheehan’s “Man Scout badges” says:
[...] I dunno, maybe the starvation is making her loopy. Naaaahhh. Casey was in the paramilitary Boy Scouts founded by Lord Baden Powell who was a militarist. I am not knocking the Boy Scouts because Casey was an Eagle Scout and he gained a lot of positive skills in the Scouts. But he was also taught how to be a good soldier: To pledge to do his duty to God and Country. Does that include marching reluctantly off to a war which one knows is wrong? Does that include putting “the mission” first above even ones own family and life no matter how disordered and corrupt the mission is? Boy Scouts earn decorations for their paramilitary uniforms and I know I sewed dozens on Casey’s sash (I always complained that sewing should be their first mandatory badge earned so the Scout could do it himself). Then Casey “graduated” to soldier and started earning his “Man Scout” badges. I was handed his Bronze Star and Purple Heart at his funeral like I should be a proud mom being pinned with his Eagle Scout badge. The Man Scout Badges, Gen. Butler explains, were instituted so the military wouldn’t have to pay the soldiers more money. How many Man Scout badges can make up for the needless, senseless and avoidable murder of your oldest child? There are not enough in the entire world. [...]
