12:16 AM - Cindy Sheehan gives up
Anti-war crusader Cindy Sheehan, best known for her stake out in Texas has called it quits. It is quite sad that she lost her child and her husband over this oil grabbing exercise some think is liberating another country. I don't care about Iraqis as much as I do American lives lost for no apparent reason. There were no WMDs found regardless if you believe Iraq had them. I'm convinced the only WMDs they ever had were chemical weapons our country gave them years before.
Some have called her un-american. Those people also praise people who stand up for their beliefs (only if they agree). Isn't speaking out about something you believe freedom? The first amendment protects our speech, and there is nothing more american that using that right. I don't agree with everything she's said in the past, but that's her right to say it.

Yes, its terrible.
Yes, it is really sad. She lost a lot due to the fact that she decided to speak out. I find it depressing that all she can conclude now is that her son died for nothing. I suspect she's not the only person who feels his or her child died for nothing.
