How’s the old saying go?&#160 “If you can’t stand the heat…”

WACO – Anti-war demonstrator Cindy Sheehan was hospitalized Friday evening for dehydration and exhaustion after fasting for more than a month and protesting earlier this week in 100-degree weather, friends and relatives said.

Sheehan was listed in stable condition at Providence Health Center in Waco. Brenda Mauk, a nursing supervisor, declined to say what Sheehan was being treated for and declined to release additional information.

Sheehan was taken to the Waco hospital after friends picked her up Friday afternoon at the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, where she arrived after spending several days in Seattle at the Veterans for Peace Convention, said Tiffany Burns, Sheehan’s friend and a member of Code Pink.

Sheehan, who has been on a liquid diet as part of the nationwide “Troops Home Fast” hunger strike, was treated and released from a Seattle emergency room Thursday night. On doctors orders, she ate for the first time in about 37 days, Burns said.

Sheehan was to spend Friday night in the Waco hospital but planned to attend some war protest activities Saturday at the 5-acre lot she bought last month in Crawford, in President Bush’s adopted hometown, about 20 miles from Waco.

Sheehan kicked off her summer war protest Sunday, the one-year anniversary of her first anti-war demonstration in Crawford that attracted more than 10,000 people over the 26 days.

“She’s in good spirits, but she’s sad she can’t be at Camp Casey,” Burns told The Associated Press on Friday night, referring to the campsite named for her soldier son Casey who was killed in Iraq in 2004.

God bless Global Warming&#153.
