Well, we’re back in Washington DC where Our Mother Of Perpetual Peace And Publicity Sheehan (OMOPPAPS) again got herself arrested in front of the White House with about two dozen supporters, including myself. We didn’t even get thrown into a cell this time and the press was a no-show. The original plan was to chain ourselves to the fence but I forgot to stop by Home Depot for the chain. It took the pigs oops, police all of twenty seconds to untie the shoestrings we ended up using so it wasn’t all that dramatic. Many of us are concerned that Peace Mother Sheehan’s (PMS) fifteen minutes of fame might be drawing to a close, in spite of the fact she’s almost completely stopped the war. Besides the dwindling press coverage, she just found out her TV show “Jihad Mom” probably will not be picked up by the major networks. On top of that, Ben & Jerry’s has indefinitely delayed the release of the new “Nutty Sheehan” pistachio ice cream and nobody at Air America is returning her calls. If you ask me, when even Al Franken is too busy to speak with you, it’s over. On the other hand, she’s never been more popular abroad. Her line of “Great Satan” burqas and bomb belts are selling like hotcakes in Syria and Iran and there’s even talk of HAMAS issuing a commemorative stamp with her likeness - Allah be praised! And of course PMS is still a much-beloved figure in most of Europe. Recently in France, Jacques Chirac presented her with the prestigious *Poltronnerie Avant Honneur medal along with a signed photo of himself in a Speedo. In a gesture of gratitude and bonding with that great country, we’ve decided to quit shaving and reduce our bathing to bi-weekly. I’ve got to run now and get my crystals for the big prayer meeting. We’re praying for multiple indictments followed by lethal injection for Karl Rove. Wish us luck!
