Isn't that the truth; next year, she'll be on some "old" celebrity reality show.

The President already met with her.
It was reported in the "Vacaville Reporter" in an interview with David Henson in 2004.

Cindy said in 2004:
“...Pat [her husband] noted that Bush wasn't stumping for votes or trying to gain a political edge for the upcoming election
"We have a lot of respect for the office of the president, and I have a new respect for him because he was sincere and he didn't have to take the time to meet with us."
Sincerity was something Cindy had hoped to find in the meeting. Shortly after Casey died, Bush sent the family a form letter expressing his condolences, and Cindy said she felt it was an impersonal gesture.
"I now know he's sincere about wanting freedom for the Iraqis," Cindy said after their meeting. "I know he's sorry and feels some pain for our loss. And I know he's a man of faith."
The meeting didn't last long, but in their time with Bush,Cindy spoke about Casey and asked the president to make her son's sacrifice count for something. They also spoke of their faith... For a moment, life returned to the way it was before Casey died. They laughed, joked and bickered playfully as they briefly toured Seattle. For the first time in 11 weeks, they felt whole again.
"That was the gift the president gave us, the gift of happiness, of being together," Cindy said.”

Compare and contrast the way the media is treating this single, narcissistic dim bulb, and the way they ignored the Swift Boat Vets. And the media's not biased?

Mr. Bush said last week that the families can rest assured that their loved ones lost in Iraq have died for a noble cause. Cindy doesn't see a noble cause. She wants the president to explain himself. That's why she wants to meet with him again. The longer he ignores her the worse he looks

I know that's what you want to believe, but that is not the way it is. See, DUmmies don't live in the real world. They don't let facts get in the way of what they believe. The longer you type here, the more you look like a typical DUmmie.

Now, run along. Isn't it time to go home and tell Will Pitt how wonderful he is?

You know , I just cannot understand how the people of rural Crawford put up with this riff-raff showing up and camping out in their community. Take away the services, pull the porta-potties , spread fresh manure in the nearby fields, increase the media parking permits about 1000% .
It looks to be turning into a zoo of half-baked nit-wits.
If I were a Crawford rez , I would not be accommodating to all
these protesters and their fringe dwelling camp followers.

Instead of being a proud American gold star Mom...

Please don't be suckered in by the sham "Gold Star Mothers of America" by confusing it with the real "American Gold Star Mothers, Inc." These two groups are in no way, shape, or form similar or related.

Here's the real Gold Star Mothers:

American Gold Star Mothers, Inc.

This site is linked to by both the VFW and the Department of Defense.

Sorry, I haven't found a homepage for any GSMOA home site. The closest I found is this:

Gold Star Moms

They claim to be moving their site and list their contact email as goldstarmoms@yahoo.com

I should have done a bit more searching. Here the one:

Cindy's "Gold Star" site

They can't seem to be able to make up their minds exactly what their name is. They're now calling themselves "Gold Star Families for Peace", probably to keep out of legal trouble with the real Gold Star Mothers.

not knowing this Cindy person , let me guess:
Divorced when her son was about 6 or 7 , remarried to either a leftist nutcase or never re-married. Like the crackpot mom on O'Reilly last night " a family of one"
Now poor little Cindy lost her only(?) child , all the venom she has kept pent up (since George Bush was first elected) and all her left wing liberal fantasies have been flaunted, it's all coming out. PigMan has pushed her to the fore as as example of what lies he has always been trying to promulgate.
My question is where is the father? Why haven't we heard from him? Other siblings? Parents and siblings of other leftist frothers of the current genre ? Do they choose to give their looney-bin relatives an uncontested forum to espouse their vile beliefs out of respect? What of respect for Country and Leaders? and the Forces in the field....
I say if people come out like this they should be shunned ,
just ignored . Let them wallow in their own self inflicted miseries.

I may be in Crawford this weekend.

WATCHING MANY MILITARY MOM'S AND WIVES PROTEST CINDY SHEEHAN!

I got a phone call today....from a military mom who went with many other moms this afternoon. To protest Cindy Sheehan for dishonoring the troops.

They said that they told one of the news agencies that was there that they should put moms on who support the war and disagree with Cindy Sheehan.

The news gimps would not do it.

Camp Casey???

More like private property.

The owner of the land that many of them have been standing on is demanding they leave.

They won't. They should be arrested.

If it was my land.......I'd release the hounds.

Sheehan's gold star group is linked to the Progressive Democrats of America.

BTW,
Progressive mean communist.

Liberals are using that term now instead of using the term liberal.

One of the directors from the ADA once mentioned in an article that liberals are not afraid of their title.

Now they call themselves progressive.

FAMILY OF FALLEN SOLDIER PLEADS: PLEASE STOP, CINDY! Thu Aug 11 2005 12:56:21 ET


The family of American soldier Casey Sheehan, who was killed in Iraq on April 4, 2004, has broken its silence and spoken out against his mother Cindy Sheehan's anti-war vigil against George Bush held outside the president's Crawford, Texas ranch.

The following email was received by the DRUDGE REPORT from Casey's aunt and godmother:

Our family has been so distressed by the recent activities of Cindy we are breaking our silence and we have collectively written a statement for release. Feel free to distribute it as you wish. Thanks Ð Cherie

In response to questions regarding the Cindy Sheehan/Crawford Texas issue: Sheehan Family Statement:

The Sheehan Family lost our beloved Casey in the Iraq War and we have been silently, respectfully grieving. We do not agree with the political motivations and publicity tactics of Cindy Sheehan. She now appears to be promoting her own personal agenda and notoriety at the the expense of her son's good name and reputation. The rest of the Sheehan Family supports the troops, our country, and our President, silently, with prayer and respect.

Sincerely,

Casey Sheehan's grandparents, aunts, uncles and numerous cousins.

Yes, O'Reilly may have gone easy on her. He had another anti war Mother on last night and wasn't as hard on her as he usually is.

On Keith Oberman when asked about this letter .. Cindy claims that her husband still supports what she is doing and how she had spoke with him on the phone today

She made no mention that they were separated

She said that she never got along politically with her inlaws and that she couldn't forgive them for supporting this war and for voting for he President

Thanks for the info, and thanks to anyone who can go to Crawford and show the strength of the "other side" from Ms. Sheehan. If I could go, I would.
