After spending weeks dogging George W. Bush's presidential vacations, anti-war protester Cindy Sheehan returns to criticize the Obama administration.

Sheehan used to pitch a peace camp near Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas, becoming a symbol of the anti-war movement after her son Casey died in action in Iraq.


On Thursday, she and a band of anti-war protesters turned up outside the media center used by journalists covering Obama's vacation on the well-heeled east coast resort island of Martha's Vineyard.
"The reason I am here is because ... even though the facade has changed in Washington DC, the policies are still the same," Sheehan told a handful of journalists, against a backdrop of her "Camp Casey" banner.


She told US peace activists to wake up and protest Obama's escalation of the war in Afghanistan, and complained that despite the president's anti-war stance, US troops remained in Iraq.


"We have to realize, it is not the president who is power, it is not the party that is in power it is the system that stays the same, no matter who is in charge."


"We are here to make the wars unpopular again," she said.
