Bush’s new neighbor

I support Cindy in everything she does to end this war.If the republicans cant see that this war is murder than they should question their own interpretation of war.How does blowing up Iraq keep us from fighting the terrorists here as the terrorists were not from Iraq.The oil pipeline has to go thru Iraq to the gulf.Wake up people and see that this is about the us getting Iraqi oil not about protecting the us

Ms. Sheehan does speak for me and for millions throughout the world. George Bush is afraid to look her in the eye. His lip would tremble because she would see through him. His invasion of Iraq was based on lies. A real man would own up to it. Wake up you misguided people and those of you who are acting so hateful. Peace and love to Cindy Sheehan from Wisconsin.

Like they did when Nixon was forced out of office, a distinguished group of Republican elders should visit Bush at the White House. They should tell him that he has done a great job, but that our country is tired of the great job he is doing. Just relax until the next presidential election. I think the USA would deeply appreciate that.
WMD, before Bush, gas was around $1 a gallon, now that's what I call a tax. Katrina. Iraq. Wiretapping Americans.Ignoring the law. Record deficits. And on and on. How can one man accomplish so much in so little time?

Cindy Sheehan is a great role model for all our young women...teaching that in spite of deepest grief and loss, there is good to come from her loss. Especially glad she enjoys Texas and sees the beauty there. GWB is definitely the worst Commander in Chief in the history of the USA, and I hope that he and his cronies are tossed out soon as two more years of this is way too much!!

To Dan Lewis et al.

Thank you so much for your comments. My husband was an Army Ranger captain in the 101st, LRRP, stationed in the north, around Hue, I believe. (He's sleeping now, so I don't want to wake him up and ask!) Years 1969-70. Purple Heart (booby trap tripped by another), CIB, Bronze Star w/V attachment. AND, his men liked him! Lol. He said he was the only officer in the unit whose men came to visit him in the hospital. He's a Mayflower baby, and his ancestors have fought in every war of the U.S., including 2 generals in the Revolution. His great grandfather was a surgeon in the Union Army, father was a career military officer, 82nd in WWII, wounded in Korea. I have included below an excerpt from a letter my husband wrote to Cindy last September after we attended the antiwar march in Washington, D.C.

Dear Cindy,

...Being in DC this past weekend resurrected many ghosts from my youth and the time I spent in the military serving in another ill-conceived and thoroughly wasteful war: Vietnam. I understand Casey’s insistence to stand and support his buddies, even though he did not believe in the war in Iraq. I too felt as he did over 30 years ago, and a brief visit to “The Wall” restored to me the faces of many dead friends who never returned home to their loved ones. While standing before the engraved names of over 58,000 dead young men and women, I was struck by a stark and definite difference between my war and Casey’s war. In the present conflict, the brave young soldiers living and dead have a voice of true conscience, patriotic righteousness, and Christian charity; and that person is you. I wanted to tell you to your face how much that means to me and to thank you for myself and those of my dead comrades who are unable to do so themselves. When I was Casey’s age nobody spoke for us, the common soldier caught between his conscience and his duty to friends and country. Instead, we were vilified and chastised by the American public. We were spat upon, made to feel guilty for our service and wrongly blamed for the war. Today, people like you, and especially you, have shone the light on the true culprits of illegal and unjust war. It is not the young servants of this country in uniform, but the men and women in the government who misuse them, squander their youth, their innocence and their blood. The words, “Thank you, Cindy” seem woefully inadequate, but they are all I have.

You are truly a most remarkable woman and my respect and love for you and your work grow on a daily basis. Do not let the bigots and spineless politicians of our government deter you from your course, for it is the noble one, and the criminals who have visited this abomination on the world will face justice, if not in this life, certainly in the next. Casey is a blessed young man and lives on through a unique and wonderful mother.

Peace – Your friend and ardent supporter,

S. Parry (former Captain, US Army Rangers - D-1/502 – 101st Airborne Div.)

They are bragging on Austin news about how Cindy can't get the water turned on. Was reported with a wink in the eye. Guess "someone" made a few calls.

Jesus said that the worst place in hell would be reserved for those who led his children astray. W is going to be there one day for lying us into a war and tricking the good simple folk of America into doing evil on behalf of the big dollar interests who bankroll the GOP. Our boys aren't defending our freedom, in fact they are fighting for OPEC, the oil companies, and the oilfield services people, while the GOP curtails our freedom and fools us into thinking they are "saving" us from something. Somewhere there must be a picture of Bush kissing Bin Laden like he kissed those other Saudis.
In America today there is more than one sucker born every minute, and apparently some of the non-suckers are getting dumber every minute. God save us all when the right wingers start murdering Americans like their Coulter-Malkin-O'Reilly-Hannity mouthpieces keep shouting for. Then the middle easterners can watch us on tv and tsk tsk about how we aren't ready for self rule and never will be, because of our savage beliefs and Mammon worshipping ways.

When the Republicans finally lose power, and protection from oversight and prosecution, I will be delighted to see Bush, Cheney, Rumsfield, Rice and others officially charged with crimes against humanity and murder.

An appropriate sentence for them could well be the stripping of each of their US citizenships and their relocation to Iraq so that they might be able to live with the people that they have 'liberated'....... I can just see the 'flowers being thrown in the streets in front of them' as the Iraqis welcome them !

Cindy..... Thank you.

This bunch of murdering thugs will only be stopped by one person resisting at a time. I'm horrified by what these people have done to my country and to the world.

My time spent camping in Crawford last year was the most spiritually uplifting experience of my life. I drove from upstate N.Y. to connect, and you should make the pilgramage if you want a jolt of positive energy. It will be the best vacation you ever took.

George W. has done nothing but run this country into the ground, and you are going to buy land and house next to his?

I think what you have done is great, but really now George W. doesn't care, he enjoys the conflicts of the war, he said so himself, he is a war President.

Maybe Cindy should try to deliever a " Home made Apple pie' to Bush. As far as sending him to Iraq, that wouldn't work Midland would still be without their " National village idiot" you would see him on your milk carton as missing. I sometimes feel sorry for Bush he is just a Pawn for Cheney and his henchmen. They have turned this country into a police state.

No wonder Bush is only staying at Crawford for 2 weeks this year - Cindy's got a place just down the road from him now. Maybe if Cindy stays there longer and more often during the year, Bush won't fly to Crawford every week (which costs all of us taxpayers, at last count 4 years ago, about $35,000 per hour for each flight)

David comments that freedom is not free, but which part of "operation Iraq freedom" means protecting American freedom? Shouldn't we be a bit more concerned with that bug up out butt bin Laden? Why aren't we?

Noble idea, there, but how about a plan, eh?

Having lost a son back in 1971 and knowing what it feels like still; Anybody who wants to diss Cindy for doing the American thing and speaking her mind is more than welcome to meet me anytime to "discuss" the problem. I'm getting really tired of the rectal orifices in this country trying to make those of us who saw and continue to see through the lies and deceit of bush and company shut our mouth.

To Capt. S. Parry, 101st Airborne, Ret.: Thank you sir for your service to our country. Wish you had been my C.O.

I admire your courage and tenacity in keeping up the pressure on Bush and moving in next to his ranch is inspired.Here in the U.K. there is a lot of anti-war feeling and Georgie and his pal Tony Blair are held in very low esteem by very many people here.
Some of the comments on your blog seem to think that these poor boys who go out to get killed in Iraq & Afghanistan are laying down their lives for their country. Not so. They are dying so that the United States can throw its weight about in the world and tell other countries how they should be run and unfortunately the U.K. follows along in this.
And of course, the industrial/military complex can make lots of money from their weapons sales and businessmen make money from rebuilding the places they have destroyed. This is theworld we have created.
Keep on protesting.

Has anyone ever wondered why Bush bought 1600 acres in Crawford, Texas?? Look up NUCLEAR RADIATION SITES. In ALL of America, there is only an area left in Texas that is not saturated with NUCLEAR RADIATION. That's right---the area around Crawford,Texas. Look it up on your computers. Cindy, you hang on to that property------FOREVER!!!!!! Build a home up on stilts. Dig a well. It will be the only unpolluted water besides what Bush drinks---and your neighbors. I would be with you now, but I just had surgery. Your son would be proud you out foxed the fox. I really admire you. Wish I could buy land there for retiring Lesbians. Clean land and well water. Maybe I can afford a small lot for a house . See you in the last clean land in AMERICA!!!!! SINCERELY----LYNN SOUTHER

I think you are great! Keep all public servants accountable even though some are so dumb and don't know how to count.Since King Geoge has been in office, He has'nt helpsd me. The high cost of gas,job layoffs,terror scare tactics, immigration worries and send poor kids to war because thats their only to higher college education!It should be no Reblican left behind. They get all the perks on our tax dollars! It is easier to fundraise than solve issuses at home

Give em hell, Cindy. George Bush isn't running this country, the neo-conservatives are. Our finest are dying in Iraq in for nothing. We are not fighting over there for our freedom, nor their freedom. It will just be a regime change. I'm tired of hearing it's better to fight them over there than over here. That's pretty bad when we want to see innocent Iraqis die, to protect our skin. I guess it's all about "us" after all, according to the idiots who are now running this country.

CINDY,YOUR SON WAS DOING WHAT HE WANTED TO DO AND HE KNEW THE RISK!!
I REALLY DON'T THINK YOU ARE GOING DOWN THE RIGHT ROAD BECAUSE YOU ARE DOING THIS FOR ATTENTION FOR YOURSELF!!!
I THINK THAT YOU NEED TO SEEK THERAPY AND SOON!!
I AM REALLY ASHAMED TO SHARE THIS COUNTRY WITH YOU AND HOW PROUD WOULD YOUR SON BE OF YOUR BEHAVIOR?HE PROBABLY WOULD SAY I REALLY HE WANTED NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU OR THE OTHER NITWIT'S YOU HANG WITH!!
PLEASE GET HELP FOR YOURSELF ASAP BECAUSE ANYONE WHO ACT'S LIKE YOU DO,IS ONLY SEEKING ATTENTION FOR THENSELVES.YOU ARE SO SELF ABSORBED!!
