Cindy Sheehan: 'I am not the issue'

By LANCE GAY
Scripps Howard News Service
August 24, 2005

- Cindy Sheehan says she's tried to keep the focus of her protest on the immorality of the war in Iraq, but she's found this month that it's difficult to keep the spotlight off herself.

"I am not the issue," she said on her Web blog. "The issue is a disastrous war that's killing our sons and daughters and making our country less secure. They attack me because they can no longer defend this war."

She (Sheehan) could, very easily, end up being the most despised "American" figure in history books of the future, of this war.
