Cindy Sheehan energies American families

While President Bush is on his rather long vacation (most Americans either do not have the luxury of taking a vacation or take very short ones), Americans are still dying in Iraq on a daily basis. Cindy Sheehan, whose son died there last year, wants to speak to the president directly, but he refuses to do so. As horrified Americans watch the drama developing in Texas, many readers of ours asking the question that why does the president run away from answering direct questions from American people who were kind enough to elect him twice.

We are also hearing from our readers that Cindy Sheehan is giving a voice to many American families who have silently grieved over the death or injury of a loved on.
