Cindy Sheehan says "No Mas"

After many years being the face of the Anti-War fringe, Cindy Sheehan has decided to bow out of her quest to end the Iraq War and impeach GWB.

This is my resignation letter as the "face" of the American anti-war movement. This is not my "Checkers" moment, because I will never give up trying to help people in the world who are harmed by the empire of the good old US of A, but I am finished working in, or outside of this system. This system forcefully resists being helped and eats up the people who try to help it. I am getting out before it totally consumes me or anymore people that I love and the rest of my resources.

Good-bye America ...you are not the country that I love and I finally realized no matter how much I sacrifice, I can’t make you be that country unless you want it.

I can't say that I will miss Cindy Sheehan. She never brought any kind of rational argument to the debate, and merely served to distract from any real discussion of the issues. However, I wish her well in her attempt to restore her life to some semblance of normalcy.
