Cindy Lee Miller Sheehanis an American anti-war activist, whose son, U.S. Army Specialist Casey Sheehan, was killed by enemy action during the Iraq War.

The war in Iraq will end, our troops will come home, Bush will be impeached and he will be brought to justice.
Looking back, all I can say is that the meeting with Bush was one of the most disgusting experiences in my life.
We're going to get the troops back, and we're going to get George Bush impeached this year.
We're going to do what we do all the time: gather together in peace. We're going to call for George Bush and the neo-cons not to invade Iran. That would be a mistake even worse than Iraq. Our children are sitting ducks in the Middle East; the people of Iran and Iraq would be sitting ducks. And I'm not even sure that this invasion won't lead to World War III. So it's something that we have to stop before it starts.
We need to see that George Bush and the rest of them are tried for crimes against humanity.
Every time Bush talks he should be removed from office,
I want Bush to stop using my son's sacrifice to justify the killing.
Thank you for being a bright spot in what is so-called Bush country.
I knew George Bush would say things that would hurt me and anger me and I knew that I couldn't disrupt the address because Lynn had given me the ticket. I didn't want to be disruptive out of respect for her.
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.
All I want is for President Bush to take one hour out of his vacation and meet with me before another mother's son dies in Iraq, ... You don't use our country's precious sons and daughters unless it's absolutely necessary to defend America. Mr. President, it is time to level with the American people.
All of those reports prove my son died needlessly. This proved that every reason George Bush gave us for going to war was wrong.
