I wasn't totally aware Cindy Sheehan was still around, so her publishing of a "resignation letter as the "face" of the American anti-war movement " took me by surprise. But she sort of buried the lede. Happily for the anti-war movement, it's actually become a broad-based, overwhelmingly popular movement, and needs neither faces nor tribunes. The role Sheehan played in the dark days of 2005 is not nearly so necessary in 2007. That's a good thing! Maybe not for Sheehan, but certainly for the cause she professes to believe in.
