"Go home," a Crawford neighbor of Camp Casey, her face deformed with rage, yelled at me as about 50 of us walked the four miles from Camp Casey I to Camp Casey II on Good Friday. We were re-enacting the Stations of the Cross. I was hauling a 12-pound ... More >>

Thursday, 13 April 2006, 12:28 am | Cindy Sheehan

Cindy Sheehan: It's Not Enough to Criticize

Friday, 10 February 2006, 1:26 pm | Cindy Sheehan

I am standing here today to say "enough." It is not enough to "criticize" the President's policies while you are handing him more money to fund his policies. It is like giving an addict more money to purchase drugs when you would like him or her to quit. More >>

Cindy Sheehan: The Opposite of Good Is Apathy

Monday, 9 January 2006, 2:57 pm | Cindy Sheehan

Cindy Sheehan: Blessings?

Tuesday, 29 November 2005, 3:11 pm | Cindy Sheehan
