Cindy Sheehan Considers a run For Congress?
Human Thorn-in-George W. Bush's side Cindy Sheehan is considering running against current Democratic Speaker Of The House Nancy Pelosi in California if Ms. Pelosi fails to bring articles of impeachment against George W. Bush. In case you are unaware of Cindy Sheehan, she is the mother of an Iraq War casualty (that's all he is to Dubya) who became a big-time anti-war protester. Other families who lost a child or children in Iraq or other war(s) have attacked her character as being 'unPatriotic' or even treasonous, but as former President Theodore Roosevelt once said (paraphrased), " It is never unPatriotic to oppose the President. Or, You can oppose the President and dislike those who govern and still love your country." Also, as Ben Franklin once said (paraphrased)," Those who are willing to give up any freedom for 'security' deserve neither freedom nor security". Anyway, I wish we had more people running with leadership and commitment like Cindy Sheehan rather than the typical politician who is willing to sell-out the average American for corporate donations and self-interest.
