All across America, thousands of people roll their eyes at any mention of Cindy Sheehan, or worse, slander her motives.

This behavior is a shameful and unpatriotic act to defend a current presidential administration that does not dutifully govern on the behalf of Americans.

The most despicable comments (by the aforementioned individuals) to date focus on the belief that those who question the motives of this war are not supporting our troops. I ask these slanderous individuals, who would more wholeheartedly support our troops than their own families?

Sheehan’s courage follows the goals of many civil rights leaders and humanitarian activists. She, as well as other proactive Americans, should be honored for speaking on behalf of the silenced country.
