Cindy Sheehan Watch: Book Signing (?) in Crawford
A supporter of U.S. President George W. Bush attends a rally in Crawford, Texas November 26, 2005. The poster shows an image of Bush and anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan, who continues to protest near Bush’s ranch over his stance on troops still in Iraq.
Cindy Sheehan is viewed with FEW books to sign……the photos tell it all……….
I suppose they will flood in any moment…….
Well, at the least the photographers are here…….
ZZZZZZZ……..
The MSM photo posted by Reuters….. note well the view……..

Update:
The Washington Post acknowledges the small numbers of protesters here.
Oh! Cindy won’t be returning for the Christmas holidays but maybe Easter……
Captain Ed says that even an Easter appearance won’t resurrect her popularity.Previously:

Methaphetamine Watch: Mexico Cuts Cold-Drug Imports to Battle Meth
Thousands of empty cold medication packages litter the highway outside of Tijuana, Mexico. The pseudoephedrine contained in the medicine is used to produce methamphetamine, and the area around Tijuana is home to many clandestine laboratories that produce the drug.
The Oregonian has Mexico cuts cold-drug imports to battle meth
Drug war – The new policy restricting pseudoephedrine could crimp the flow of meth to the United States and drive up its street costMexico plans to slash imports of pseudoephedrine by 40 percent this year, acknowledging that drug cartels have artificially inflated demand for the key ingredient in methamphetamine.
Health officials in Mexico said the country has been importing more pseudoephedrine than its citizens need for cold medicine, and imports will be cut from 224 tons in 2004 to 134 tons in 2005.
Mexico’s new policy is among the boldest by any country to prevent diversion of the cold-medicine ingredient by drug traffickers. And it could disrupt at least temporarily the main source of meth production for the United States, reducing the drug’s availability to an estimated 1.4 million American users.
Kudos to California Senator Dianne Feinstein for her role in pursuading Mexico President Vincente Fox to investigate this problem.
Stay tuned…. the Combat Methamphetamine Act of 2005 is being attached to the updated 2001 Patriot Act extension and should clear the House within a few weeks.

Stanley “Tookie” Williams Watch: Schwarzenegger to Hold Private Clemency Hearing
Stanley ‘Tookie’ Williams. California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger will hold a hearing on clemency for the former gang member turned Nobel Peace prize nominee who now faces execution, a spokeswoman has revealed.
Welcome all Michelle Malkin readers.The Los Angeles Times and Dog Trainer has Gov. to Consider Clemency for Killer
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger will hold a private hearing at his Sacramento office Dec. 8 to consider whether to grant clemency to convicted murderer Stanley Tookie Williams, co-founder of the Crips street gang.
Margita Thompson, the governor’s press secretary, said Schwarzenegger’s decision to hold the private meeting with lawyers representing Williams and the families of his victims did not indicate which way he was leaning on whether to commute Williams’ sentence from death to life in prison without possibility of parole.
“The governor reviewed the material in the case this week,” Thompson said late Friday. “He decided the best route is a private clemency hearing, so he can hear directly from counsel.”
What more does Schwarzeneger need to consider?
Another hearing – and how many years has it been?…….over 24 years!
Read the 57 page brief the Los Angeles District Attorney’s office has prepared here.
Schwarzenegger doesn’t need the “show” of a public or private hearing.
Make the decision, Governor.
You know what is at stake……..YOUR political future.

Cobb has a piece on Tookie’s son.
For example in 1994 my office prosecuted Stanley 46 Williams’ son, Stanley “Little Tookie†William, Jr., a “Neighborhood Crip†for shooting a twenty year old girl to death in an alley off of Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood in a gang retaliation shooting. “Little Tookie†was convicted by a jury of murder.
Now this revelation is just a real stunning gem. I couldn’t invent it. Here’s a guy who is supposed to be spared because he writes children’s books, but his own son is a convicted murderer.
