Yeah, that will certainly get the draft age folks out in the streets. These college age kids today have no sense of urgency about the killing in Iraq, Myself, I'd be glad to see the draft. Might put a few million folks parked on the white house lawn screaming at the asshole resident to stop the insanity. Kinda worked for Viet Nam, after 7 years, hey only 3 more years and we'll have been in Iraq longer than Viet Nam, and no-one seems to see the similarity. I dont think we were building a half billion dollar embassy in Viet Nam though, Hmmmmm.

sounds like the only thing she finally realized is that democrats aren't going to stop anything bush has done for the last 6 1/2 years...just like bush didn't undo anything clinton did, he just expanded it and further funded it...

so she finally realized that there is no left and right...they're all the same...

'I'm not giving up,' Sheehan tells radio host Schultz [align=left]David Edwards and Muriel Kane
Raw Story
Wednesday May 30, 2007 [/align]
On Tuesday, peace activist Cindy Sheehan appeared on The Ed Schultz Show to talk about her recent declaration that she is leaving the anti-war movement.
Sheehan starts off the radio interview sounding tired and dispirited. She explains that she has kept pushing herself because "I can't say no, especially when people are dying" but that the recent failure of the Democrats to vote against the war caused her to conclude, "I think I've gone as far as I can in this movement."
Sheehan's tone then becomes stronger and more positive as she looks to the future, making it clear that she is not giving up activism. She says, "We're gonna see what other direction we can come at it, because obviously the direction that we're going has stopped being effective. ... We're gonna close up the factory, we're gonna retool, and we're gonna see how we can come at this problem from a different angle."
Sheehen's strongest criticism is directed at the Democratic Party. She says, "It's all about the presidential elections, it's all about politics. And the Democrats have to stop being careful and stop playing politics with human flesh and blood and they're going to have to be courageous. ... If we're gonna get a Democrat in the White House that acts like a Republican, what's the difference?"
It is clear from the interview that Sheehan hopes that as she stands down, millions more anti-war activists will stand up. "I'm not giving up," she concludes, promising to announce her new campaign within the next two months.
