Incredible....beyond words.
Has everyone saved that article in case it "disappears"???
Thanks for the ping, Amy.
Ms. Sheehan does not speak for THIS military family, either!
I wonder what the percentage of military families agree with her ...... maybe 10%.
By reading the MSM, you'd think it were at least 80%.
I've noticed that the immediate military family--spouse and children--are overwhelmingly supportive. The only vocal opposition comes from parents, with very few exceptions.
There are a few freaky parents out there like Ms. Sheehan. I can understand that losing a child must be horrible but they dishonor their child by their vocal opposition to something he or she was totally committed to.
Most families bear their loss with great pride in their loved one and respect and honor for his or her sacrifice. Ms. Sheehan is obviously ashamed of her son.
It's unfortunate, really.
Sen. Edward M. Kennedy and Sen. John F. Kerry yesterday each threw their support behind Cindy Sheehan, who has been camped outside Bush's Crawford, Texas, home since Saturday, vowing not to leave until the president meets with her about the war. Sheehan's 24-year-old Marine son, Casey, was killed five days after he arrived in Iraq.

They must've increased her salary...
My, my, my . . .
See these signs in Crawford this weekend.
Was that before or after her hate filled filth became very public?
Losing a child is devasting to a parent; but I think you dishonor the child by using his death for your own selfish purposes. Most people do not want to have a public display of their grief.
I have never lost anyone in the military. My youngest brother served during VietNam. He didn't see any combat; he was stationed on an airbase. He watched many planes leave on a mission and then waited to see how many returned. He lost many friends in that war.
Good! Now we don't have to wonder where they stand! /heavy sarcasm
Most excellent!
Now, why doesn't that surprise me.
When I called their office in the spring of 2004, after Casey was killed, I was livid with them and Kerry's aid spent about an hour on the phone trying to convince me that there was no WMD, that he supported the troops and had many military behind him.
Finally, toward the end of the call, I asked him point blank about Kerry's FBI documents where he had planned to give Hanoi audio tapes from his group to be played to American soldiers to get them to surrender...
At that time, the aid suddenly said, "I've got to go."
Apparently,they recruited Cindy.
Well, I'll bet that's when Cindy and Joe Wilson became buddies
Whores....I don't know how else to put it....damned whores.
Typical "L.A." snooty lib.
She even talks like a "Valley Girl" 'ya kneow?
Thanks Amy.... interesting.
Most frustrating are the times in which Casey died. In March of that year, John Kerry stood up for Al Sadr, the Muslim Cleric who called in his newspaper for the deaths of U.S. troops. Kerry stated in public radio that Al Sadr had a legitimate voice (to call for the deaths of American soldiers in Iraq) and that the military should not have shut down his newspaper. It was Al Sadr's people who killed Casey Sheehan. It was John Kerry who approached her and used her after that occurred. None of us can understand why Cindy Sheehan would embrace someone after that occurred.
It's clear Cindy has ulterior motives when she refuses to see the truth and continues lying.
