Yet it's not too late to hear from other Casey Sheehans from our soldiers in Iraq, any one of whom might volunteer for a dangerous mission tomorrow. Why don't some of the reporters who spent weeks hanging on Cindy Sheehan's every word tell us what our soldiers are thinking?
Cindy versus Casey Sheehan has posed a stark choice a choice this nation will remember long after the Texas vigil: "This country is not worth dying for" versus "all he wanted to do was serve G-d and his country." Where do our soldiers stand? They have as much right to be heard as Cindy Sheehan. .........***

Looking for her personal legacy at the cost of her son's.
Cant get much lower than that.
Cindy Sheehan is a MAGGOT eating off her dead sons honorable legacy to feed her media whoreish ways!
It's obvious that he would never say, "George, please speak with my mother," if the President had really met with Cindy. Casey is angry.
"I know that the Camp Casey movement is going to end the war in Iraq," Sheehan told more than 1,000 cheering activists crammed into the shade under a circus tent. "When you read about the Camp Casey movement in the history books, you can say, 'I met Casey's mom.'

Lies and the the left go hand in hand.
Exactly why it's impossible to support anything this woman does. Her son's death is a media event all about her. Her face is more familiar to Americans than her son's. A disgusting narcissistic display.
"She offered to run him over with a car."
OMG!! This is the first time I heard this!! Yea, 'slamo-Cindy loved her son, all right -- she is no better than the homicide bombers she loves!
Thank you Casey Sheehan for your service. We will not allow your mother to tarnish your image.
SINdy probably has as big a problem with Casey serving GOD as she did with him serving Uncle Sam. From listening to her speeches the past few years it is obvious she is Anti-Christian/Jew and pro Islam.
I wished her family, what's left of it, would come and put tape across her mouth, tie her up, and put her in the back of the van and take her back home, and tell her to "SHUT UP!"

Sam Husseini, based in the IPA media office at the National Press Building in Washington, D.C., is the communications director. His articles on politics, foreign affairs, public policy, media, and pop culture have been published in The Washington Post, Newsday, The Chicago Tribune, The Nation, The Humanist, TheVillage Voice, FAIR's magazine Extra! and numerous other outlets. Prior to joining IPA, Husseini was media director for the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee.
Background on the Institute for Public Accuracy:
The Institute for Public Accuracy was founded in mid-1997 by its current executive director, Norman Solomon, with the support of a two-year $100,000-per-year Public Interest Pioneer grant from the Stern Family Fund. IPA opened its national office in San Francisco in October 1997. Several months later, IPA established its media office in the National Press Building in Washington, D.C. It is a 501(c)(3) organization.
IPA increases the reach and capacity of progressive and grassroots organizations (at no cost to them) to affect public policy by getting them and their ideas into the mainstream media. IPA gains media access for those whose voices are commonly excluded or drowned out by government or corporate-backed institutions. As a national consortium of independent public-policy researchers, analysts and activists, IPA widens media exposure for progressive perspectives on many issues including the environment, human rights, foreign policy, and economic justice.
IPA has developed a detailed set of constantly updated databases of producers, commentators, and journalists at media institutions across the country. Generally, IPA news releases are most effective when they address breaking news stories. We've reached wide audiences by using major news developments as pegs for quickly providing accurate information and alternative analysis. Overall, producers and journalists have been very receptive when we contact them -- quickly -- with information and suggestions for appropriate people to interview on subjects that are prominent in the news.
While regularly making it possible for numerous policy analysts, scholars and other independent researchers to be heard in mass media, IPA boosts many progressive grassroots groups with scant resources for media outreach. During the past eight years, IPA news releases have promoted analysts from more than 900 different organizations doing work on a wide variety of public-policy issues.
This is incredible! It was written by someone from BGSU, my alma mater. A student perhaps?
I'm impressed!
I can't even began to tell you how hard it is for me to except what this "Mother" is doing to HER sons memories.....there are no words to fully explain how hard this is for me to understand.She has done all she can to cast SHAME on his choice to defend his country and more than that his beliefs in OUR FREEDOMS (one of which is speech)and she is enjoying at this time/ Were it not for her son and the many soliders before and after him she couldn't even be saying these things/ Maybe just me but the thing I hear her saying the loudest is "My son was a dummy and didn't know what he was doing and he died for nothing!!" I don't have a son there but I do have a nephew and I pray each day that he comes home safe, BUT I also give THANKS that we have young people like him and the others that are helping to keep us from times like 9/11 or the simple things like freedom of speech!!!! So Cindy has the right to say what ever she wants...........BUT WHAT IS SHE SAYING ABOUT HER SON????? let me tell you as a Granny that hurts, as an American it makes me mad, as a Mom it makes me feel sorry for her son,the stand he made, amd the lack of respect he received from HIS OWN MOM!!!!!
I get the feeling that Cindy and Casey were polar opposites.
