Starving for Peace

When Cindy Sheehan made her way to Crawford, Texas to try and meet with President Bush and ask him why her son had to die for his misguided war, she and other CODEPINK members were allegedly met with resistance and some violence. . . . as Cindy marched towards the ranch where Bush is vacationing for 33 days, she and her supporters, including CODEPINK cofounder Diane Wilson, were stopped by local sheriffs, who pushed them into a ditch with fire ants in 100 degree heat. (www.codepink.org) Cindy and CODEPINK have now launched a hunger strike and mass media campaign--Cindy's been interviewed by CNN's Wolf Blitzer and the AP wire story is quickly making the rounds--to protest the war and the current administration's deceitful political warpath. Join Cindy in Crawford, donate time or money to CODEPINK, or be a part of the political actions taking place in Washington, D.C. in September. Whatever you do, make sure you're actively letting the nation and our government know that you are against the complete insanity that is currently taking place.
