Cindy Sheehan, who drew national attention for camping outside former President George W. Bush's ranch in protest of the Iraq War, is following him to Dallas.
Sheehan will lead a demonstration Monday, June 8, 2009 protesting "crimes against humanity."
"We can't allow George Bush's crimes to be forgotten just because he is not in office anymore," she said in an e-mail.
While most people in Preston Hollow have gone out of their way to welcome the former president and first lady home, they're not exactly rolling out the welcome mat for Sheehan.
"Go away," resident Kathie Taub said. "Go back! Leave us alone!"
Taub said Sheehan had already protested and should "now leave everybody alone."
"She has already made her opinion known, and it is getting old," Michael Taub said. "She needs to go back to wherever she came from."
Neighbor Victor Toledo echoed the sentiment.
"There's a lot of decent people that call this home, and I'd rather not see that," he said.
The march begins at Preston Road and Royal Lane at 4:30 p.m. and ends on Daria Drive, outside the secure entrance to Bush's Preston Hollow neighborhood.
It is not scheduled to cross any major intersections.
It was not clear if Bush or his wife will be at home this weekend, according to the Dallas Morning News.
Sheehan, whose son, Army Spc. Casey Sheehan, was killed in the Iraq War, camped outside Bush's Crawford ranch in 2005 in protest of the war.
She also ran unsuccessfully last year for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's congressional seat.
She seems to forget the Rezko, err...Obama residence. Didn’t he continue and escalate both wars with less funding?
So true!
I said it yesterday and I’ll say it again - It’s a sort of demented dedication you almost want to admire before splashing it with holy water and hoping it runs.
Shine on you crazy crazy diamond.
Isn’t this Obama’s war of choice Now? I mean he chooses to keep combat troops in Iraq not Bush.
“But the parade will end soon. This little section of Preston Hollow is about to become a gated community, courtesy of the United States Secret Service.”

True, but nobody is listening to her anymore. Her 15 minutes ended long ago.
This dumb twit doesn’t have any relevant purpose in life. She simply cannot accept that nobody gives a hoot about her. She needs to vanish.
You know, one great move would be for Bush or Laura to walk out and offer her cold water - to drink, or even shelter inside their house from the Dallas June.
It would be a classy and compassionate act, if she accepts, fine, and if she doesn’t, fine.
Oh my gosh. I always kinda believed that because she looked so horrible... like small animals slept in her hair. It’s awful that she looked like that AFTER they spruced her up.
“Sheehan will lead a demonstration Monday, June 8, 2009 protesting “crimes against humanity.”
She’s going after Bammy now?
The neighbor’s cat was crapping on our porch so I sprinkled some cayenne pepper around, and problem solved.
Mebbe something like that.
Protesting a private citizen? She definitely has Bush Derangement Syndrome.
Yes she does, that's what she's protesting.
Poor, pitiful thing.
Wow, I thought this was Scrappleface for a minute.
Be nice to see 1,000 freepers surround his house to keep her away.
