Mother already met Bush [Editorial from Cindy' hometown newspaper]

The Reporter ^ | 8/12/05 | Catherine Moy

[summer]

Cindy Sheehan's incessant Bush-hating landed her on the Web site of Al-Jazeera, a propaganda arm for Muslim terrorists, and splintered her family, who mourn the loss of her son, Army Spc. Casey Sheehan, who died last year in Iraq. Mrs. Sheehan is now a tool of America-haters. She has joined the family of radical Democrats in defiance of her son's blood relations.

Her family has had enough. Cherie Quarterolo, Casey's godmother and aunt, wrote a letter to KSFO saying the family broke its silence because "our family has been so distressed by the recent activities of Cindy." The note read in part:

"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 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."

The Sheehan family has exposed itself to the scorn of leftists. Anti-war activists hope Cindy Sheehan's status as a grieving parent will protect her from criticism.

I wrote a column last year relaying my sorrow over her loss. In an e-mail, she told me to stop writing about her son. She did not want media attention.

So, what changed? The anti-Bush crowd now handles Mrs. Sheehan, answering her phone and prepping her for the media, according to Sheehan's online diary.

She still doesn't like critical media attention or when the media ignore her.

"I conservatively got three to five phone calls a minute. I did about 25 phone interviews and several TV interviews," Mrs. Sheehan wrote in the diary. "I was supposed to do: 'The Today Show,' MSNBC live interview, 'Connected Coast to Coast' and 'Hardball,' both on MSNBC. 'The Today Show' just never showed up and the other three MSNBC shows cancelled for no reason. Could it be because NBC is owned by General Electric, a major defense contractor?"

President Bush already heard her last year when taxpayers paid her way to visit him. Later, she told The Reporter that she knew Bush is "sorry and feels some pain for our loss." On Sunday, she told CNN's Wolf Blitzer that Bush's deputy chief of staff met with her in Texas and told her "the president really cares." And I said, "You can't tell me that because I've met with him and I know that he doesn't care."

Mrs. Sheehan has had her turn with the president and changed her statements about their meeting. President Bush shouldn't waste more time on her.

This bitch is exploiting her son's death.

And she is being exploited in turn, by the anti-war left.

When her fifteen minutes are up, they'll discard her.

When her fifteen minutes are up, they'll discard her.

And she has come to enjoy the media attention so much that I'll bet you dollars to donuts that when that happens, she will do another about face and start pointing fingers at the left and wanting to "tell her story" about how she was used and exploited and discarded by them. I hope so anyway. But by then, the media will be tired of her and nobody will listen and all her new friends will wind up hating her.

Long before her son died, Cindy was a nasty, virulent LIBERAL! She just didn't get any press.

She cut off most of her family ( her husband;'s side ), because they had voted for President Bush in 2000. That they did so again, in '04, was just too much for her entirely.

Is she being used by the far lefties? Yes, she is. But Cindy is using them as well.

Forget grief/the grieving mother stuff. This is lefty propaganda!

[nopardons]

Look, I have thankfully never gone through the death of a child, but my grandmother did and no, it never does go away, it affects the whole family for generations, but Cindy is not behaving the way she is from grief! She was a damned lefty always and is using the death of her son, for fame and attention for HERSELF; which she is eating up with a spoon.
