Looks like the attention skank finally realized that no one appreciates her attempts at undermining our troops' efforts abroad. When will the other liberals figure this out? It's curious how the media is not reporting this. Eh, it doesn't fit with their agenda of ending the war and giving al Qaeda free reign in the Mideast... http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,275997,00.html Cindy Sheehan Quits as 'Face' of Anti-War Movement Cindy Sheehan, the "peace mom" who made headlines in 2005 by staging a marathon protest outside President Bush's Crawford, Texas, ranch, said Monday that she no longer wants to be seen as a leader of the anti-war movement. In a 1,245-word missive entitled "Goodbye Attention w****" posted on the liberal DailyKos blog, Sheehan said her campaign to end the war in Iraq had strained her relationship with her children, cost her a marriage and left her nearly penniless. "This is my resignation letter as the 'face' of the American anti-war movement," Sheehan wrote. "I am going to take whatever I have left and go home. I am going to go home and be a mother to my surviving children and try to regain some of what I have lost." Sheehan founded the Gold Star Families for Peace after her son, Casey Sheehan, a 24-year-old Army specialist, was killed in an April 2004 battle in Baghdad. Sheehan was an outspoken critic of the Bush administration's policies and was often a target of criticism herself for visiting with leftist leaders like Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez. Sheehan, however, said she had become increasingly disillusioned with the Democratic Party. In an open letter to the Democratic members of Congress on Saturday, however, she announced that she was leaving the Party because she believed its leaders had failed to change the country's course in Iraq. "I was the darling of the so-called left as long as I limited my protests to George Bush and the Republican Party. Of course, I was slandered and libeled by the right as a 'tool' of the Democratic Party." Sheehan wrote. "However, when I started to hold the Democratic Party to the same standards that I held the Republican Party, support for my cause started to erode and the 'left' started labeling me with the same slurs that the right used." BUH BYE
It was listed on the MSN home page and on CNN.com. I also heard it mentioned on NPR. Anyway I'm not surprised Cindy Sheehan has stepped down. It must've been a tremendous strain on her family and life to go through all of the publicity. Not to mention putting up with all the threats and insults directed at her. Best of luck to her and hopefully she can get on with her life.

I love reading Trader Jorge and Basso - those two crack me up. The liberals secret mission to help Al Qaeda take over the world and only Dick Chaney stands in their way. It's the other side of the coin to the dumb-arses who say 9/11 was a conspiracy by the right wing. I wish you could put them into the same room and just watch what would happen. It'd be hilarious.
i read the main article (which said resigns) and for a second I thought she must have been a member of the administration. i guess it's about time a libpig resigns and ends the onslaught of right wing-nutz fleeing office. libpigs and right wingnutz. they really do go together.
First thing I thought when I saw the headline. I'm sorry for her loss, I wish her luck in her future endeavors, but I'm glad I don't have to hear about her anymore.
talk about a delusional chick. well now she can go back and spend time with her family, oh wait...they dont want anything to do with her.
