Fire the Liars
On April 4 2004, Cindy Sheehan's son Casey was killed while serving
in Iraq. Since then she has fought tirelessly to bring attention to
the plight of our troops serving in the Middle East. She founded the
Gold Star Families for Peace, and is currently holding a vigil
outside George W. Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas.
The Army Times wrote recently that, "(Sheehan) said she decided to
seek another audience with Bush when she heard his comments about the
war last week, after a spike in American deaths. The fallen men and
women 'died in a noble cause,' Bush said Wednesday. 'Their families
can know that we will honor their loved ones' sacrifice by completing
the mission.' Sheehan said she wants to tell Bush not to use her
son's death as a reason to continue the war."
