Malachy McCourt, author and radio host running for New York governor on the Green Party ticket, has received an endorsement from a national political figure: Cindy Sheehan, the mother turned anti-war activist who lost her son to the war in Iraq in 2004 and has since made it her mission to not let George Bush forget.

Sheehan says she supports McCourt because “the people of New York want peace.” McCourt says he is accepting Sheehan’s endorsement because she is the “Apostle of Peace.” Sheehan is listed by her nickname, “Peace Mom,” on a press materials provided by McCourt’s camp.

Peace all around, then.
