58% of the American public are with us. We’re preaching to the choir, but the choir’s not singing, if all of the 58% started singing, this war would end. – Cindy Sheehan
I admire President Chavez for his strength to resist the United States. Instead, Bush is waging a war of terrorism against the world. – Cindy Sheehan
I don’t understand why, to rise to the level of being president of my country, one has to be a monster. I used to say that George Bush was defiling the Oval Office, but it’s been held by a long line of monsters. We don’t have to support our administrations to love our country. – Cindy Sheehan
One of my biggest inspirations is President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela. Yea, President Hugo. – Cindy Sheehan
My son was killed in 2004. I am not paying my taxes for 2004. You killed my son, George Bush, and I don’t owe you a penny. – Cindy Sheehan
I think that there are some people on the so-called Left who might say we have to circle our wagons around the first African American president, and to me that is racism in reverse because his policies are actually still the racist policies of empire. – Cindy Sheehan
Every day is a new sense of tearing my heart out of my body again when I see other children who have been killed, and I know what their families are going through. – Cindy Sheehan
I was told my son was killed in the war on terror. He was killed by George Bush’s war of terror on the world. – Cindy Sheehan
I can’t speak for the other people whose children have died, but I can speak for my family and the other members of Gold Star Families for Peace. We believe we’re honoring our children by working for peace. – Cindy Sheehan
I believe that it is my right and responsibility as an American to question our government when our government is wrong. – Cindy Sheehan
I wake up every day feeling like today’s the day to make a difference. I never question the correctness of what I’m doing or the need for it. – Cindy Sheehan
I’m not going to join any party. If I do vote again, and if I do become, you know, politically active, it will be independent. – Cindy Sheehan
It’s up to us, the people, to break immoral laws, and resist. As soon as the leaders of a country lie to you, they have no authority over you. These maniacs have no authority over us. And they might be able to put our bodies in prison, but they can’t put our spirits in prison. – Cindy Sheehan
I’m just so honored that the universe chose me to be the spark that has set off a raging inferno. – Cindy Sheehan
Loyalty to the true, core values and roots of democracy is what makes a true patriot, not loyalty to a symbol of the country. – Cindy Sheehan
If we stick together as an American people we can bring down the war criminals that are running our country right now. – Cindy Sheehan
I’ve always admired President Chavez for standing up to imperialism and the meddling of the American government in South America. – Cindy Sheehan
If peace activists really want to make changes, they have to start putting intense pressure on their elected officials. Of course, everything should be non-violent, because we are trying to create a peaceful world, and violence can’t produce peace – no matter what George W. Bush and his buddies say. – Cindy Sheehan
I believe that any candidate who supports the war should not receive our support. It doesn’t matter if they’re Senator Clinton or whoever. – Cindy Sheehan
We really need to stop the imperialist tendencies of countries like the United States and Great Britain. – Cindy Sheehan
I can imagine people in Third World countries looking at, you know, someone like Hillary Clinton raising $35 million for her presidential campaign that goes to really, you know, nonproductive means, and they see that, and they just – it’s just really immoral, I believe. – Cindy Sheehan
