From “Camp Casey,” in front of George Bush’s Texas ranch and through messages on Michael Moore’s Web site, she is exploiting her position as a grieving mother to further her cause as a leftist and an anti-war activist.

She is even raving that her son died to benefit Israel and the neo-con agenda.

Now, the leftist anti-war groupies have found a live one, and are jumping on the bandwagon from near and far.

The groupies have created quite a sizeable coalition at Sheehan’s campout in Texas. Some of the headliners include Gold Star Families for Peace, Code Pink, Veterans for Peace, Military Families Speak Out and the Crawford Peace House.

All of these groups are on the steering committee of United for Peace and Justice, a major anti-war organization.

Also with a presence on UPJ’s steering committee is the Communist Party USA. Makes for interesting bedfellows, doesn’t it?

UPJ was the brainchild behind the march on the 2004 Republican National Convention in New York.

When 253 of its protesters were polled by the New York Sun as to whether they felt that “Iraqi attacks on Americans occupying Iraq are legitimate resistance” 67 percent answered yes.

This means Sheehan’s coalition thinks the kind of attack that killed her son is perfectly okay. - Source

You are preaching to the believer not the converted but it still makes me ill of the comments this mother is saying. Goodness did I hate the slow news cycle. Never want anything to happen in the news but it was nice to get a breather from her and those who support her.

As always thank you for the comment.
