Anti-war activist Sheehan leads protesters near Bush home

This woman is clearly nuts. Does she even realize that Bush isn't the President anymore?

How could anyone realize that, as often as the new President refers to him. The way they make it sound, he is controlling everything from Texas.

How about finding out where this nut lives and organize a massive protest in front of her home. Unfortunately the only people who have the time or energy for this kind of nonsense are the people who don't work for a living or havn't got a real life.

She has to let it go. She had a chance to tell George W. Bush what she felt to his face and she chickened out. Her son is gone, what does protesting the former President at his home in Dallas going to do to bring her son back?

The fact that Bush isn't president is irrelevant. He is still a war criminal, and there is not statute of limitations for mass murder.

Cindy Sheehan is a hero.

What do you mean SHE chickened out?!?

Cindy Sheehan isn't trying to bring her son back. She is trying to save other mothers' sons from a BS war that should never have happened, and she is trying to hold the architects of this illegal, genocidal war of aggression responsible for their crimes.

She is a psychopath who needs to be locked up

DAY OF THE DEAD

By Cindy Sheehan

5/26/09: "I was on an airplane flying to Orange County from Sacramento to attend the al-Awda Conference; which is a Palestinian Right’s Conference. Al-Awda translates to “The Returning,“ when the Pilot voice filled the cabin to make an announcement that I think went unnoticed by most of my fellow passengers, but I heard it.

As the plane was on the approach to John Wayne airport, the Captain came on the intercom to remind us all to “remember our brave troops who have died for our freedom.” Even in this post 9-11 paranoid paradigm, if I wasn’t belted in for landing, I would have popped out of my seat at 13D and charged up to the cockpit to let the pilot know that my son was killed in Iraq and not one person anywhere in this world is one iota more free because he is dead.

As a matter of fact, the people of Iraq, the foreign country thousands of miles away where my oldest child’s brains, blood, and life seeped into the soil, are not freer, unless one counts being liberated from life, liberty and property being free. If you consider torture and indefinite detention freedom, then the Pilot may have been right, but then again, even if you do consider those crimes freedom, it does not make it so.

Here in America we are definitely not freer because my son died, as a matter of fact, our nation can spy on us and our communications without a warrant or just cause and we can’t even bring a 3.6 ounce bottle of hand cream into an airport or walk through a METAL detector with our shoes on. Even if we do want to exercise our Bill of Rights, we are shoved into pre-designated “free speech”(NewSpeak for; STFU, unless you are well out of the way of what you want to protest and shoved into pens like cattle being led to slaughter) zones and oftentimes brutally treated if you decide you are entitled to “free speech” on every inch of American soil.

If you watch any one of the cable news networks this weekend between doing holiday weekend things, you will be subjected to images of row upon row of white headstones of dead US military lined up in perfect formation in the afterlife as they were in life. Patriotic music will swell and we will be reminded in script font to “Remember our heroes,” or some such BS as that.

Before Casey was killed, a message like that would barely register in my consciousness as I rushed around preparing for Casey’s birthday bar-be-que that became a family tradition since he was born on Memorial Day in 1979. If I had a vision of how Memorial Day and Casey’s birthday would change for my family, I would have fled these violent shores to protect what was mine, not this murderous country’s. Be my guest, look at those headstones with pride or indifference. I look at them, now with horror, regret, pain and a longing for justice.

I can guarantee what you won’t see this holiday weekend are images of the over one million Iraqi dead. Say we assign, in an arbitrary way for purely illustrative purposes, an average height of 5 feet for every person killed in Iraq and then lined those people up from head to toe. That gruesome line would stretch from Los Angeles to Portland, Oregon…950 driving miles up Interstate 5. If we count the Iraqis who have been forced to flee, we would have to go back and forth between L.A. and Portland another four times.

Why is she not protesting Obama? He has driven this country into the toilet in less than 150 days. A complete failure. Create or save 150,000 jobs when 2 million disapeared. The press is this country has died. I do however, have faith in the American people. They are starting to push back on Obama and his socialist ways. The honeymoon is over for this guy.

You sir are a complete idiot. Get a job and get back into society. If you can't find one, just call Obama, he will set you up.

In case you don't remember. She protested for a chance to meet former President Bush. He agreed to meet with her. They talked. Only after did she realize that she didn't say what she wanted to say to President Bush, and has now been picketing him ever since.

I agree with you about the war for the most part, but she needs to give up protesting former President Bush. It really does no good.

Your notion of what constitutes 'war-criminal' and 'hero' are so skewed as to be completely at odds with reality. It is clear that your emotions have overridden all logic and have rendered your willfully ignorant opinions as nothing more than the incoherent ramblings of an unstable sociopath

Maybe because the job losses in the US aren't the reason she was protesting!!!!!! You just chose this forum to bash Obama.

Obama was one of the only people in State or US Government who DID NOT sign up for this crappy war. This was probably because he KNEW that we needed to go after Osamma Bin Ladin for 911, NOT Saddam. He was just in the same part of the world and Bush wanted to get him once and for all.

Keep it up, Cindy. The Bush record of death, lies, and deceit needs to be front and center as his historical legacy.

Hey Bill, GO F*^% YOURSELF.

Notice that Bush didn't move back to his "ranch" once it was no longer needed as a stage prop. He probably doesn't roll up his sleeves anymore either.

I hope that he and Cheney get heckled for the rest of their lives whenever and wherever they show their faces in public.

We must bash Obama's policies at every opportunity. They are destroying our country. Wake up.

It also won't help bring her husband back.
