GEORGE BUSH: WAR CRIMINAL OF THE CENTURY

George Bush: War Criminal of the Century SPN Cindy Sheehan 06/17/2015 I swear, this Empire is going completely FUBAR: continuing wars; expanding police state; Nobel Peace Prize for a burgeoning POTUS war criminal; compromised environment; droughts; floods; earthquakes and tornadoes. This article will be fairly popular among the faux-gressive set because I will be primarily “bashing” George Bush. By the time George Bush left office, my act of minority courage in criticizing Bush became a national (socially acceptable) pastime. It hasn’t been so criticizing Obama from the far left—righties assume I love him and Democrats think I am a “teabagger.” Actually, the only thing I have been since my son was killed in Iraq is a principled antiwar activist.   CLICK HERE TO READ MORE

The Travesy of "Health" care by Cindy Sheehan

Travesty of Healthcare Anonymous About three months ago, my family was devastated with the news that one of our dear loved ones has Stage 3 breast cancer. To be honest, she discovered the lump about a year and a half ago, but only sought treatment when it erupted and started to bleed profusely. The family had no idea until she rushed herself to the ER in LA County, but why did she delay so long? Part of the reason is the completely understandable fear of “The Big C,” but most of the reason was that, as a poor person living off of doing odd jobs for cash, she had no easy access to healthcare. Would things be different now, if she could just walk into her doctor and be examined and know that a compassionate and accessible system could help? A resounding, “yes.” Obviously, I am talking about my sister Dede Miller and we feel this story is important and needs to get into the hands of every "decision maker" to try and help others. Since our own

Plea from Cindy

Dede, Cindy and fellow Gold Star Mom Amy Branham before our first trip to Crawford. 8/6/05 Dear Friend, It is with great concern but with hope that I write to you to let you know that my sister/best-friend/peace colleague, Dede Miller has recently been diagnosed with Stage 3, very aggressive and rare breast cancer. For a few months, she (and by extension as her primary support person, I) has been struggling with the monolithic bureaucracy of LA County "health" care. I have traveled from my home several times to LA to be with her. I can't see how a person can go through what Dede has had to go through alone. Dede has been by my side forever, not just since Casey was killed in Iraq. Dede, being a single person without children has been like a second mom to my kids and now the beloved Auntie to my five grandkids (she gets all the fun). However, since Casey has died she has been with me--getting arrested for peace; organizing Camp Casey and all of the other harebr

CINDY SHEEHAN'S SOAPBOX JUNE 7, 2015   GUEST : ANN WRIGHT TOPIC : KOREAN PEACE The Korean War has been called "The Forgotten War" but it is not forgotten by the Koreans whose country was torn apart by this war and families were separated.
