I have to wonder how close she really was with her son. They obviously had major differences on military issues-especially in light of the fact that he served not just once but actually re-enlisted. I am not doubting her grief I am just wondering how much in sync this woman was with her 24 year old son who knew the dangers yet re-enlisted anyway. If they were not that close it would be really hypocritical of her to be using him to further her political cause and the political cause of those she is associating with.

I am doubting her grief.

I have lost family. Even family with whom I have had firm disagreements but I could NEVER see reacting like this.

When has the left EVER been above usurping the memory of the dead?

She is obviously a graduate of the bill clinton school of crocodile tears.

In the begining I had a human reaction and thought her a dupe, now I have been educated enough to realize she is not only a willing participant but to see she did not and does not give a rodents posterior for her son.

She is a liar, her actions are disgusting to all who serve, her actions are a smear to the REAL gold star mothers who mourn children whose memory they do honor. Mothers who respect their sons and daughters because they died doing the right thing.

Sheehan is all pissy because for her because HER son did not obey HER and not go to war. HER son should have done what SHE wanted. Bush should have dropped out of the 2000 race and the 2004 race because Sheehan demanded it. IOW: ME ME ME ME ME. IOW: a NUT.
