You, Too, Can Bid

I saw mention of this on a couple of sites I read and thought I would check it out. It is on EBAY. A speaking engagement with Cindy Sheehan is being auctioned off and the proceeds go to yearlykos - sponsored by the website dailykos. So far the bid is $900.00. With her normal published speaking fee of $12,000 this looks like quite a bargain price.

That Cindy. She's a giver.

There is a mention that they expect "obvious potential for right-wing shenanigans" and she retains the right to refuse to speak to groups not aligned with her. Those right-wingers, they are a surly bunch.

The 2006 YearlyKos convention will be held in Las Vegas at the Riviera Hotal in June, so sign up early to attend. I understand Senator Harry Reid will be the featured headliner. You don't want to miss out on the opportunity to hear Mr. Charisma, now do you?

I don't want to sound rude but Cindy sure could use a good makeover. And a good voice coach, too.

I would say that if you paid for her to speak and she didn't you could have grounds for a lawsuit. Let the trial attorneys go after someone who needs to be sued for a change.

What we should do is auction her off to say some old tribesman in Nigeria who is looking for a woman to bear his twelve children....
