6. She may have been the first to go to Crawford...
TO WHICH I REPLIED: with a comment (if you wish to go over to the link to DU-3) and these links.. which I'm posting here, if you don't want to go over there. But, many might remember when Will Pitt visited Cindy Sheehan in the ditch outside Crawford, Texas where she was the FIRST PROTESTOR..against BUSH's Invasion of Iraq. She was the FIRST TO BREAK THE CODE OF SILENCE on that IMMORAL/ILLEGAL Invasion..


But she was hardly the first person to "break the code of silence" the attack on Iraq. I understand why people feel compelled by Cindy Sheehan, but let's not get ahead of ourselves in reducing the anti-war movement to just her ex-post facto protest.
