Any DUers want to send a message to Cindy Sheehan?

[proud2BlibKansan]

I am leaving Sunday for Crawford and I would love to take her messages from the wonderful people here who support here.

I was out running errands today and had to go to 3 auto parts stores to find one of those windshield shades. I told the guy who sold it to me that I am going to Texas and was relieved to finally find one, since it is so hot down there. He asked where in Texas and I said "Crawford". Another guy came out from behind the counter and said "Surely you aren't going down there to cheer on the president?" So I told them why I was going to Crawford. They started applauding! Both of them told me to give Cindy good wishes from Kansas. So I thought well I bet there are Duers who want to pass on their support as well.

So write your messages here and I will either print out this thread, or show it to Cindy when I get there. I am not sure about internet access there at her new place but I know they have it at The Peace House.

I will also try to report back here as often as possible. If I can't do that, I will write a report and post it as soon as I get home. And of course, I will take lots of pictures.

1. Good for you!

We're with you Cindy!

[liberaldemocrat7]

53. Hello Cindy. Tell people to pressure General Electric to end the war.

We the people demand that congress pass legislation ending the war in Iraq and withdraw the troops and arrange with the United Nations to replace US troops with UN troops to defend Iraq until The Iraqi army can defend Iraq or we will not buy any General Electric consumer products again.



Call or email defense contractor and Republican contributor General Electric in Connecticut and tell them a boycott on their products exists and that you will boycott their products until the CEO gets the Republican Party to hold a press conference announcing that the congress will pass legislation to end the war in Iraq and that congress actually passes legislation ending the war in Iraq.

The boycott of GE products includes stoves, ovens, refrigerators, light bulbs, RCA TVs and stereo equipment, etc.


You can email General Electric by going to the web site http://www.ge.com

or at their consumer electronics feedback page

https://www.home-electronics.net/CustomerContactUs/1,7315,CNUS-LNUE,00.html

or at their general feedback web page.

https://www.ge.com/ge/feedback.htm





The Republican Party appears weak and vulnerable at the cash registers of the companies that give them money.

2. Keep up the good work Cindy! We all love you! n/t

[uppityperson]

3. Hope you have a great time, tell her hi and keep up the good work

Thank you for going. Hope you enjoy the new place. I hear it is really nice and people have been busy pulling brambles. Thank you for going again.

[proud2BlibKansan]

5. I will

Yeah I heard about those brambles and went and bought a new pair of tennis shoes this morning. LOL

[CJCRANE]

4. Yeah: Go...

for it!

[derby378]

6. We'll see you soon, Cindy!

My wife and I can't come tomorrow, but maybe we can come next week. I'll see if I have any of those "TEXAS IS CINDY COUNTRY" stickers left, too. Hang in there!

[dogday]

7. Mother of a soldier in Iraq says Thank You Cindy!!!

Thank you Cindy for fighting the "Good Fight". :hi:

My hopes and prayers go with you in all that you do and say...

Thank you for all your efforts and sacrifices, especially your biggest sacrifice, your Son... :hug:

[Robbien]

8. Just want to thank her for keeping up the good fight. She speaks for me

She gets so much grief from the corporate media and the rightwingers and still she keeps on going, just like the energizer bunny! Ha!

Just want you to give her my thanks. She speaks for me.

[Botany]

9. Cindy,

If I knew some words to help, I would say them.
If I could take you pain away with some action, I would do it.
However let me thank you from the bottom of my heart for
having Casey live on in your words and deeds. You are a
real patriot not some flag waving, talking point saying, follower
of bush & company's awful war that was based on lies.

Your actions will be rewarded and lives will be saved because
of your courage.

All the best!

[LSK]

10. Cindy, I am there with you in spirit

I wish you all the best and pray that you succeed in your cause of ending this illegal war.

Thank you so much for what you do.

We need you and we love you.

[Lochloosa]

11. We are all there in Spirit Cindy.

Say hello to Ava for us.

Love ya.

[Mabus]

12. K&R, so proud can take a lot of messages to Cindy from DU'ers

Thanks for going again. You do us Kansans, well, proud.

Tell Cindy that I stand with her. So does Rex, my husband and, of course, our friend Lauren. Thank her for all her sacrifices. She's got a lot of courage and she's a big inspiration for me.

In fact, I picked up my "Hope in the Heartland" materials this morning and will start canvassing my assigned neighborhoods this evening.

btw, Lauren is going to try to get down there pretty soon herself.

Have a safe trip. :hi:

[proud2BlibKansan]

16. Yes remind Lauren to call me

I told her I would pick her up at the airport. I also want to use the shower in her hotel room :)

[Mabus]

18. I'll send her an ICQ

and give her your number. I'll tell her memorize it!

[eleny]

13. How wonderful

Please relate my thanks for her dedication to democracy and liberty in the USA and throughout the Americas.

Thanks to you, too, hon!

[Karenina]

14. Much LOVE and GRATITUDE to you, Cindy

and to all the brave souls who are standing with you from across the "Big Pond!" :hug::loveya::hug:

[astonamous]

15. Please pass this on...

Cindy and everyone joining you in Crawford,

We at www.richardpryor.com are very proud of you and the struggles you have faced in the past. We know that it is an uphill battle and every day that you put yourself out there, you are representing all of us who want answers to the same questions you are seeking. WHY?!

Please take care and know that even before his passing Richard Pryor was one of your supporters. Even though he wasn't able to let you know personnally, he was and is still behind your efforts. Mrs. Pryor is also a big fan of you and we all pray for an end to the occupation of Iraq and that no more mothers, wives, fathers, husbands, children and friends have to grieve for the loss of their loved ones in Iraq.

Please take care and be safe!

Trudy and Jennifer

17. We love you, Cindy

Please tell Cindy I think she's an amazing woman and I adore her. What courage. After all she's lost, and all she's been through, she just keeps on speaking truth to power. She's my hero. :patriot:

Thank you and good luck. I wish I was going too.

[SutaUvaca]

A couple of herniated disks have, I was forced to pass on the opportunity to come up. I am wearing my VFP T shirt in your honor, however!

In Solidarity,

Thanx, P2bL

[Kali]

21. Another DUer and a Mom of 3 young people.

bleever

[Philosoraptor]

25. Our best regards and hopes are with you Cindy, keep fighting!

[no_hypocrisy]

26. Cindy, you're incredible in so many ways. The last person I

[wicket]

27. Tell Cindy I love her and god bless her

[snowbear]

29. Thom Hartmann just said she's been taken to hospital in Seattle..

I thought she was in Crawford, Texas.. But Hartmann is on right now, and said a couple minutes ago that Cindy Sheehan had been taken to a hospital in Seattle due to some sort of complications because of her fast.

He didn't know if she had been admitted, or what the diagnosis is.

Is she in Seattle or Crawford?

[proud2BlibKansan]

55. Oh no!

She is in Seattle for the VFP convention. She is due to return Sunday I think.

[Synnical]

30. Tell her not to let the bastards get her down!

Thanks for this. I stand with Cindy.

-Cindy in Fort Lauderdale

:toast:

[Hissyspit]

31. We realize the work is not done.

So I continue to stand with her and to demand accountability from this administration.

Thanks for going, Proud2Blib.

[tavalon]

32. Thank you Cindy

I've finally moved out of Texas so I won't be making it to the Hellhole you are calling home for this month but my thoughts and prayers are with you and all the fine folks joining you. I know that cowardly weasel won't talk to you but I also know that that isn't the point. Bring it on, sister!

[EFerrari]

33. Both of you try to stay in the shade!

:yourock: :yourock: :yourock: :yourock: :yourock:

[rodeodance]

34. You are one of my ethical compasses. Keep well and Thank you.

[stillcool]

35. Dear Cindy....

I wish for you all the things you've taught me:
Grace
Wisdom
Courage
Integrity
Compassion
Determination
...and above all else... Hope

[stellanoir]

36. I am aware that she sends thoughtful letters to all of the

Mom's who've lost kids in this senseless war. A dear friend received one and was really touched and moved by it.

I've posted this, my fave blessing other times on this board but I'd love for her to see it and share it with others.

I've sent it to everyone I've known to be experiencing hardship and loss for many years and it says so much more than the obligatory "condolences." Reading it daily helped me through one of my darkest hours as I hope it will many more others. . .

BLESSING

"I send you light to hold you in love.
I send you light to heal you in love.

May you love, honor, and cherish the preciousness and uniqueness
of your own being and of each other being in this world.

May you see your own goodness and beauty reflected wherever you
look. May you be contented and appreciative of all life's
bountiful gifts.

May the splendor and majesty of your being guide your thoughts, words, and actions.

May your pain and fear be transformed into strength, understanding, and compassion.

May the shining light of your being radiate peace and harmony wherever you are.

May you be suffused with happiness, joyfully celebrating each day you are alive.

May you be abundant in all wealth and rich in generosity, sharing your feelings freely.

May you be a soothing balm of kindness and a fragrant blossom of love to everyone you meet.

May you be well whole and healthy.

May the great love and compassion of your heart embrace and help to redeem the suffering of all beings everywhere.

May the inner light of your purity and perfection dissolve the clouds of discord, despair, and conflict.

May the intelligence and wisdom of your infinite mind give you clarity in a confusing world.

May you trust that you are loved, cared for and supported by the infinite always.

May you possess the precious magic jewel of gratitude that transforms all life into a paradise.

May pause for a moment each day to remember this blessing upon you, and calling forth the full power and magnificence of your own being, may you pass it on to all beings everywhere.

I send you light to hold you in love.
I send you light to heal you in love."

Beyond that, thank you for your indomitable strength, courage, and integrity. You are an inspiration to so many.

Peace in our time I swear.

[snowbear]

Shameless kick.. but I'm wondering if she's ok?? :(

[proud2BlibKansan]

56. I will see what I can find out

[QuestionAll...]

38. To Cindy...

True bravery is done with words and heart, not guns and grunts of false patriotcy.

[sinkingfeeling]

39. Hi, Cindy...

Wish I could join you on the front lines. Hang here, wer're making progress.

[tlsmith1963]

40. Keep Fighting, Cindy!

Here's my message: I was sorry to hear that family members have abandoned you, Cindy. I hope they will come around one day. It's difficult when family-members feud. Also, I cannot wait to read your book. I will be watching for it!

Tammy

[Jamastiene]

41. Don't ever give up, Cindy.

Sooner or later, the truth will come out about this horrible excuse for a president. Your struggle will not be forgotten. Stay strong.

[mimitabby]

44. hey Cindy!

Best of luck to you in all that you do. I think you are incredibly brave and I want you to know there

all over the country (and the world) that support you.
i think you're the best thing since sliced bread!

[Emit]

45. Peace and Love, Cindy...

Keep up the good fight -- peace and love, Emit

[Dinger]

46. Love You Cindy! You are An Inspiration!

I've never met you, but I have known several soldiers that have gone to Iraq, through friends or relatives. I have not known any personally who have died there (praying & crosssing my fingers), but my heart goes out to you Cindy. Keep up the good work! Casey would be so proud:)

[calimary]

47. Great! Tell her we send our love and solidarity.

What she's doing is utterly and absolutely patriotic, and brave, and exquisitely American. She lost a son to this damned war of LIES, and is still making sacrifices to advance the truth. God bless her!Efforts like hers are what's making sure that her precious boy and everybody else who died needlessly in bush's war - did not die in vain.

CINDY!!! WE LOVE YOU!!! KEEP IT UP!!! YES, I'm SHOUTING!!!

[faithnotgreed]

48. we love you and send prayers

[Bucky]
