Zitat des Tages von Cindy Sheehan:
I'm a socialist, and I'm not going to be ashamed to say it!
I don't - you know, I'm very disillusioned with our political system. If we don't wake up in America and realize that we have to vote out of our courage and integrity for candidates who reflect our own beatitudes, and not the beatitudes of the war machine and the corporations, we are - we're doomed.
The American electorate are getting disgusted with weaklings who blow where the wind takes them while frittering away our precious lifeblood and borrowing money from our new owners, the Chinese.
The war in Iraq will end, our troops will come home, Bush will be impeached and he will be brought to justice.
What is the 'noble cause' for which you sent our country to war?
I'm just so honored that the universe chose me to be the spark that has set off a raging inferno.
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.
I would love to support Hillary for president if she would come out against the travesty in Iraq. But I don't think she can speak out against the occupation because she supports it.
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.
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.
I was a Catholic youth minister for eight years... I'm not Catholic anymore. The church is too misogynistic.
I loved and protected my own children like a fierce mama bear, but one of them died anyway. It was a dark day when I realized that part of my responsibility in Casey's death was that I did not love all the children of the world in that same real, not abstract, way.
People who are against me attack me personally. They attack the way I look physically, they attack the way I dress, they attack everything but what I say.
I'm just a regular mother who's trying to save lives and be the best human being I can be.
Let's push the Pentagon off the fiscal cliff.
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.
We're not going to cure terrorism and spread peace and goodwill in the Middle East by killing innocent people, or I'm not even saying our bullets and bombs are killing them. The occupation that they don't have food. They don't have clean water. They don't have electricity. They don't have medicine. They don't have doctors.
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.
I take deep breaths and be true to my heart.
I've always admired President Chavez for standing up to imperialism and the meddling of the American government in South America.
I admire President Chavez for his strength to resist the United States. Instead, Bush is waging a war of terrorism against the world.
I have lost almost every friend that I had before Casey died.
We can't let somebody rise to the top who will pardon these war criminals. Because they need to go to prison for what they've done in this world. We can't have a pardon. They need to pay for what they've done.
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.
If we stick together as an American people we can bring down the war criminals that are running our country right now.
When I was growing up, it was 'Communists'. Now it's 'Terrorists'. So you always have to have somebody to fight and be afraid of, so the war machine can build more bombs, guns, and bullets and everything.
We haven't been happy with the way the war has been handled. The president has changed his reasons for being over there every time a reason is proven false or an objective reached.
We really need to stop the imperialist tendencies of countries like the United States and Great Britain.
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.
Recruiters in our country are known for lying to people.
I'm not a military strategist.
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.
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... You give my son back, and I'll pay my taxes.
People demonize me; people idolize me; everything I say and do has been scrutinized.
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.
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.
