Sheehan calls for Sit-Ins
Oh we just can’t get enough of these wonderful grannies! Six Grannies were arrested last week at a Portland, OR recruiting station. They were there because as Patricia Schwiebert, age 61 put it,
“We just don’t want our children coming in here and getting enlisted.”
Cindy Sheehan had this to say about the wonderful Grannies everywhere who are risking arrest and frequently their health to end this war,
“The people of the US are also allowing Grannies to do the heavy lifting and hard work and prison time for us all. These wonderfully brave and committed women should be home playing and spoiling their own grandchildren, but they are putting their tired and sometimes diseased bodies on the line for yours.”
Sheehan is also urging people to join in sit-ins across the nation to demand that members of Congress take action to end the war,
“Beginning on Monday, February 5th, the Occupation Project is beginning sit-ins in every House Rep and Senator’s offices across this nation to demand an end to the war in Iraq by voting “nay” to giving any more money to BushCo for their murderous war.”
