Not sure if this was posted already and if it was than i expect it to be erased.

Anyhow, very interesting. Somehow I'm not buying this women's second story!

[tumblindice]

The story goes that the young Greek hoplite went to his mother on the eve of leaving for battle and expressed some trepidation about fighting the Persians.
What were essentially shoving/spear-thrusting matches ended sometimes when a few on one side threw down their shields and ran from the field.
The Greek's mother advised her son, "Either return with your shield, or upon it."
Certainly, our countryman's mother is grieving, but she dishonors her son's bravery and sacrifice.

Hate to rag on this woman who lost her son but if there are stages of grief the mom must be in the middle of the delusional section.

I would place my wrath on groups who might be egging her on and capitalizing on her grief. I would hope this is the case, if so may the people see the evil they are doing to this woman and turn away from it.

[Dionysius]

You can empathize with this woman as a grieving mother, but as a political (perhaps compensated) activist, she's fair game. Thus said, she is a two-faced opportunist and a cosmic disgrace to our nation for which her son gave his life. Perhaps the Peoples' Republic of Kalifornistan will view her in a kinder light.

One of these days that mother will come to regret these actions as they disrespect the honor, the dignity of her son.

Now just why would President Bush seek to meet with family members? To dishonor their loved ones? To throw a party fun for all? For a press release?

No, he would meet with them to talk, to respect their loved one with the highest honor he can give - time spent with the President of the United States. And, why hold an event to deepen the sadness the visitors feel. No, he would make sure the occasion would be honoring the joy of those lives, would lighten the load if at all possible for the grievers for a few minutes.

So, one day when she realizes that instead of honoring the memory of her son, she tarnished it and cast him in a bad light. Then she will grieve over her actions for a few dollars, for a few minutes of attention, for whatever.

But, her actions in no way honor the dignity of her son.

Vacaville,Ca...another Bay Area clown, this story needs to be trumpeted and made known. This woman is beyond repulsive.

[Mrs.Nooseman]

Neither do I.

I think she is a pawn for the Liberals out there,that are opposed to the war and is exploited by them.

However,she is stupid enough to fall for it and to disgrace her sons honor by making statements like this.

Since April, Cindy has traveled all over the country telling Casey's story. She also started an organization called RealVoices.org, with a focus on filming commercials telling real stories of those greatly impacted by the Bush Administration. The spots were aired before the election in swing states.

June 17, 2005 speech: "It appears that my boy Casey was given a death sentence even before he joined the Army in May of 2000."

---------------------------------------------------

This woman is off her rocker - her boy was given a death sentence even before he joined the Army. What a loon! Yep. Karl Rove hypnotized her son into joining the Army and then had him executed in a fake ambush. PFFFT!

[The Red Zone]

waaaaaaaaaaaaambulance chaser

[Christian4Bush]

Well, well, well...a little (amount)due-plicitous on her part?

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

[...our son, died for his misguided policies.]

Sounds like a Democrat talking point to me.

[colorado tanker]

A mother using her child's death to promote her politics? Words fail me.

[playball0]

Why is this story reported? It's obviously a political ploy like those fake 9/11 relatives.

[TASMANIANRED]

Liberals lie.. nothing new about that.

[MikeA]

This is obviously a sick, sick woman. She either sold herself to Moveon.org or is really schizo and is now changing her story to fit her bizarre mood swing. Either way she's really pretty sick and low. But the media won't report her sudden change of story.

He called him 'your loved one.'

The nerve of this guy! What an insult!

[1Old Pro]

On her current media tour, Sheehan has not been asked to explain her twist on Bush; from praise to damnation!

As expected

[montomike]

I flashed on the NBC blurb on this story. It interviewed her and was very anti Iraq war in its message. To be fair, it said that the presidents advisors met with her for an hour. I think she was basically a good mother but then got whacked in the head by the anti-war, anti-USA loonies.

Then Katie Couric came on the for the next segment honoring Jim Kelly's son who just passed away. I then realized where I was, clicked my heals twice, and leaped for the remote! Back to FOX!
