"The president says he feels compassion for me, but the best way to show that compassion is by meeting with me and the other mothers and families who are here. Our sons made the ultimate sacrifice and we want answers. All we're asking is that he sacrifice an hour out of his five-week vacation to talk to us, before the next mother loses her son in Iraq." -- Cindy Sheehan, Camp Casey, Crawford, Texas
Whether you agree with her or not, Cindy Sheehan is a testament to how much of an impact one concerned citizen can make. She has light a fire under the anti-war movement that has shaken the P.R. machine in the White House to its core.
What do I think of Cindy? More to come....
A website sympathetic to her has a live blog from Camp Casey where she and her supporters are gathered. It is interesting to read at truthout's website.
