The anti-war mom says she'll run for Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's seat if Pelosi doesn't move to impeach Bush, and soon.
  • This is a sad story, no matter how I look at it

    Sheehan wasn't the "mother" of the anti-war movement. The movement was very healthy before she joined it. She simply brought it much needed publicity. I admire her for her courage and resolution. However, I find it sad that she has turned away from the anti-war movement and taken up the anti-Bush movement. I don't think that impeaching Bush will bring the troops home. In fact, it would simply distract Americans from teh tragedy that is happening in Iraq, allowing it to go on longer. We need people to focus attention on Iraq more than ever. The only way we're going to get the troops home is by convincing enough Republicans to override a presidential veto. That's going to take a lot of public pressure.
