One person, making a difference
If you haven't heard about Cindy Sheehan yet, I'm sure you will be soon. Short version, she's a mom, a regular person, whose son was killed in Iraq. As she worked on coming to terms with this, she had a simple and brilliant idea. Go ask Bush exactly why this war is such a "noble cause".
So, despite threats of arrest, 100 degree heat, storms and general hassling, she is camping out on the road leading to Our Vacationtime President's Ranch. (Don't you wish YOU could have a high-paying important job where 20% of your time is awarded as a vacation?)
Thousands of people have been inspired to flock down there to join her. I wish I could too, but I'm having to settle for donating a few bucks to the food and water fund, and signing the petition that MoveOn.org is going to run in a two-page ad in the Waco Tribune Herald, Crawford's closest big paper.
You can too! http://political.moveon.org/meetwithcindy/
