U.S. vigils support anti-war mother

--------------------
Sheehan has camped out along a country road in Crawford asking for a meeting with Bush, who is on a month-long vacation at his ranch there. She has become a magnet for anti-war protesters who have crowded around her since her vigil began August 6 in the community of 705 people.

More than 1,800 Americans have been killed in Iraq and thousands more have been wounded.

"We at Camp Casey who have been out here sweating and getting bit by bugs ... are so amazed and filled with love and gratitude for the overwhelming outpouring of support from all over the country," Sheehan told reporters.

4. I want to shake this woman's hand!

Gilda, a 56-year-old mother of a Marine and member of "Military Families Speak Out" said Sheehan had put a face on the military families that are bearing the burden of the war.

"The rest of the population is largely oblivious," she said. "I mean they support the war. They put yellow magnets on their cars. They go out and wave flags in everybody's face, but why aren't they there. It's only us carrying this."

Thank you Gilda.. took the words right out of my mouth. Nothing like being called a traitor by a freeper! Yet my husband is active duty.
