Cindy Sheehan and her little friend Medea Benjamin of Code Pink are out protesting in Korea, but neglected to proofread their sign:
[pic via alert from GOP and the City]
Here’s the original Yahoo! News story (and a screenshot, in case they delete it)
Near as I can tell, it’s not a photoshop job. However, that just means that it ought to BE one.
I took the liberty of removing the words and leaving a blank sign. I also rotated the picture some so that you can easily add your own text without having to rotate it and make it all distorted.
Have fun with this. If you make your own sign, leave a link to your post in the comments.
Or – if you’re photoshopically deficient – just leave what you think the sign should say.
Like maybe:
“Stupid and oblivious”
“Desperate for attention”
or my personal favorite:
(see also GOP & The City’s Photoshop Contest)
“All our bsae should belong to you.”
“Passports, get your passports here. Get ’em while they’re hot!”
^Okay maybe that’s what it looks like she should be saying rather than what’s on the sign, but still…
“We’re here, we’re queer, get used to it!”
“HALP US JON CARRY – WE R STUK HEAR N CORREAH”
New psi-ops campaign:
“Out of the 72 virgins you get, we are the good-looking ones.”
Awww! Isn’t she cute! Kinda like a shaved cocker spaniel.
Kim Il-sung Fan Club
“How to Gain Weight While on a Hunger Strike”
“In our hands, we have lists that name more than 237 card carrying moonbats”
(In Korean) “Special today: half price for cops with riot gear”
“Need 2 tickets for Streisand”
But you’re mistaken. “Bsae” is a traditional spicy dish made from cabbage and smashed Top Ramen noodles molded into animal shapes for consumption duing the long winter months. and now the Imperialist Americans are bastardizing the tradition for their “Christmas.”
Jeez, do a little research, people.
In really small type at the bottom of the original “Stop U.S. military bsae expansion!” it says “This sign is the proud recipient of the 2006 Frank J. Award for Execellence in Speeling and Gramar.”
“I’m with Stupid”
” “I’m with Stupid”
” <———— ”
or
“I’m not as think as you stoned I am”
“Prowd Produkt of the Kahleefornia Pubblick Educayshun Sistum”
“Why bother spelling correctly when you have absolute moral authority?”
G Fresh, that’s hilarious! Unfortunately, I don’t think any non-readers of IMAO will get it.
Good God, I had a complete and total brain fart. Just ignore my last comment – for some reason I thought I was still at Wizbang.
SilverBubble-Don’t worry about it. :oD
We Are
Attention Whores
Hehe, I couldn’t resist.
Looks like the Scary Evil Monkey went undercover
Cindy fears The Monger Horde™.
So, that’s the real story.
That last comment was me. I forgot to fill out the forms.
Monger Horde™!
“The Original Clay Aiken Look-Alikes”
“I tarnished the memory of my son and all I go was this stupid sign.”
nuke the whales.
Down with biometric passports!!
BEWARE OF CRAZY
Cindy clearly doesn’t eat her bacon. If she ate her bacon, she’d be a much better person.
OMG, that is hilarious! Sadly, spelling is one of their desperately few strong points, if that tells you anything about their mental capabilities.
So, is this another one of their bsaeless protests, or are they trying to increase their support bsae? How do they feel about bsaeball?
Finish What McArthur Began!
Oh look, they’re teaching remedial English as a second language. Let’s bone up on our skills.
“Free copies of the Communist Manifesto.”
“We’re what you get for voting Democrat!”
“Shoot us while you can…we’re going after your guns next!”
“Hippies; this is what you will look like in 40 years!”
“Free guides on how to craft tinfoil hats!”
“This is your brain on drugs…any questions?”

“Ask me about my wiener”
I had to get my ‘cuts’ in on this woman’s over-the-edge media whoredom…
“Help us, Team America: World Police!”
Kim Jong Il can love me long time.”
“Jonh 3:16”
Well, since the sign holder appears to be falling asleep, how about:
Will Protest for Coffee
or the old standby:
Hi Mom!
Amerika Scuks!
Hey Mom look at us! We’re in Korea.
Will trade passports for kimchee.
Please buy us a plane ticket home.
“Your Ad Here – $5.00”
Munchausen’s By Proxy Anonymous…or not so anonymous…
“US Passport if you’ll munch my carpet”
“Kick Me”
“Kick Me Hard”
Man, this sucks, now N Korea is gonna use this as propaganda: “The evil Americans want to send their ugly women to rape our men and create a race of gorilla people.”
And what’s with fanning the passports? I just wish one of the dudes with that look of murderous death in his eyes would’ve cracked their skulls.
This may reveal my utter lack of the joke, but….
While looking at the original yahoo story, unless she is a contortionist or has freakishly large pinky fingers, that the sign might be a fake. Note that her left hand, which is holding the mis-spelled sign, has a pinky finger which is twice as long as her pointer.
Either she is a genetic mutant, or yahoo bought a fake picture, (or everyone already knew it was a fake and the I’m the village idiot).
Anyhow…
Pax Christi…
This pic proves something my Grandfather taught me many years ago. Every barn needs a good coat of paint. Sign should read, “Will work for maekup.”
//Note that her left hand, which is holding the mis-spelled sign, has a pinky finger which is twice as long as her pointer.//
It’s not just a genetic anomaly; it’s a necessity for stimulus. After all, would you touch her?
Pax – ring & middle fingers are bent, pinkie is straight – thus the length disparity.
Either that or her human-hand glove is slipping and will soon reveal the slimy tentacle beneath.
The non-Sheehan lady is tiny. My kids would love her. They think midgets are funny.
Pax, I zoomed the image to 4oo% It looks legitimate to me.
Halp Us Frnak J Teh Monger Horde is coming!
Policeman Thought Bubble…
“Man. If I can correctly spell “Police” on my riot shield, the least these two tools could do is to spell check their own damn sign.”
It might well be a hoax but the position of the hand on the sign is not unusual.
Hold up a picture or placard the way she does and place your hand at the corner with your little finger running along the bottom edge. Your top three fingers will be in front of the corner of the card. Draw the three back closer to the edge of the card by bending the knuckles so your fingers are closer to the edge and aren’t obstructing the front of the card. All the while keeping your pinky extended. It’s not an abnormal position. Your hand will extend backward perpendicular to the placard, just like hers does.
I couldn’t say whether the lettering on the placard has been altered though.
I don’t know why this one hasn’t been used… so many came so close to this one.. but no one, unless i missed it, used it:
“Don’t feed the hunger strikers.”
