You want to end this war? Get yourself to DC and let OUR Government of the people know you want them to stop the invasion. We have to pressure them into doing this people. You can see they won't do it on their own because their making too much damn money from it. Our Money, Our Government - DO SOMETHING! Bring masses to Crawford in August and then to DC in September until this thing ends.
May peace be inside all of us,
CindyAnnouncing Camp Democracy
Cindy Sheehan to Move Camp to National Mall
Cindy
Sheehan and activists in the growing peace movement plan to move Camp
Casey to the National Mall in Washington, D.C., September 8 - 21. The
camp on the Mall will carry the name Camp Democracy at Fort Fed Up.
Organizers intend the camp to bring together peace activists with
activists for social justice, united in demanding a shift of public
resources from war to the needs of people. Participants will lobby
Congress to end all funding of the occupation of Iraq, and will demand
that Congress hold the Bush Administration accountable for the
falsehoods that launched the war and the abuses of power here at home
that have accompanied it. Camp Democracy is launching an outreach
effort to include organizations in the planning of the camp's
activities, which are all in the initial stages. Organizations already
on board are listed on the website:
http://campdemocracy.org
Participating organizations and guest experts and celebrities will provide workshops and training sessions on a wide range of issues, as well as on communications, voter registration, nonviolent civil disobedience, lobbying, organizing, media production, and performance arts. Congress Members and congressional candidates will take part. Local elected officials will instruct attendees on participation in local government. Musicians will perform concerts. New films will be shown on a large screen. Participants will acquire useful skills while demanding fundamental change.

Well I am a daycare owner of 20 years. I like to get my clients help when I see they need it. I'm talking babies up to 7 yr. olds
I work with many agencies. D.S.S./ parent classes for behavior, red cross parent training, luck- for anger issues, police for domestic issues, Drug counseling, ECT... helping families find the help, if they need it.
-early intervention, food programs for our poor clients. screening to be sure development is ok and need are being met
. We all know what happen to the 5 STAR-NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND PROGRAM, It got funding- started to take off them BUSH cut the funding! NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND- FOR A SHORT TIME- THEN LEAVE THEM ALL BEHIND BY CUTTING SO MUCH FUNDING- THEY COULD GET LITTL HELP OR SERVICES.
like Hillary Clinton's book which I love, it take a village. it the old day we all had so many relatives all watching out for our kids, now families are far away in most cases or too busy to help.
if we all do our part as teachers to see and know that times have changed and we all have to do our part to be of the village that raises its children. The children that fall through the cracks, the children we don't help. we pay for in prison cost down the line.
Just my take,
Cheryl
