from Now I've Heard Everything · host Bill Thompson
After a U.S. Army soldier named Casey Sheehan was killed in action in Iraq in 2004 his mother, Cindy Sheehan became one of the loudest anti-war voices in America . What made her different from others, though, was that Cindy Sheehan was not content to simply join protest rallies or write letters. She set up a makeshift camp outside President George w. Bush's, Texas ranch. Her protest drew international attention, but made her many enemies as well as allies. In 2006, Cindy Sheehan wrote a memoir called Peace Mom.
