Well, he re-enlisted. But I'm not sure if he was in Iraq on his first tour of duty...
It is strange that this ~60 year old woman speaks like a ditzy high school sophomore.
Well the whole rest of the family issued a statement saying Cindy does not reflect their views, but I think they're being very low key about it, not being leftist pond scum like her. The media's failure to mention that written statement in all these stories is journalistic misfeasance.
Voluntary service
Mothers will always cry
As their sons go off to die
This is the way it’s always been
But in the USA, can you call it a sin?
We volunteer to serve our country well
If you don’t understand that, go to hell.

Even if he hadn't been to Iraq before, the reenlistment pretty much washes away her "He joined the army because a recruiter lied to him " BS.
She affirmed the fact that she was speaking for all families by replacing crosses that pro-America families took down. See Previous Post for more details.
Exactly. The war was already in full swing when he decided to enlist. Even chaplains are in danger. He knew that. He wanted to serve.
Why does CA seem to have such a large proportion of moonbats, homosexuals and liberals? We live in NC and these are our stereotypical perspectives we have of CA.
If you dig deep enough you will probably find Cindy's whole deal with Casey is about revenge on her ex-husband.
Great job!!! I heard on Laura Ingram the rest of the interview...NPR interviewed Mr Quells (sp?) and he related that Cindy had claimed having a bad connection, then hung up on him.
The NPR host sorta laughed and said something to the effect that a similar thing had happened to him
I hope Brit Hume puts this on the air tonight!!! It would be GREAT!
Make sure you listen to the whole NPR segment. Mr. Qualls really lays into Muthasheehan.
Apparently, Saint Cindy pulled the same "bad connection" trick on Mr. Qualls and hung up on him.
He was "recruited"? Like the Army came on campus and lured him into their cult while he was at the beer hall cozying up to a skirt?
Sounds like more than an Army Of One did that.
Someone please send that bimbo some hemlock ... with instructions.
Build their gallows high
CS: Well, he got lied to by his recruiter. His recruiter made him five promises that he broke all the promises to Casey.
Yes, Casey was scorned bitter duped individual. That's why he rejoined the military after he could of gotten out. Obviously lots of bitterness towards that organization.
You could fire torpedo's through the size of the holes in this woman's story.
I just e-mailed the FR link to the transcript to Michael Medved. Everyone should send it to their favorite radio show hosts--this needs to be ALL OVER the airwaves: Rush, Hannity, Prager, Hewitt, Humphries, Larson, Beck, etc.
I think Mrs. Sheehan has some real issues...the lengths to which she has gone with this whole thing isn't just because she is looking for "stardom" (though by her actions, I would also wonder about that)
But the fact that she didn't see him off...Her total disdain for his decision makes me question her feelings for him. I think there's a lot of hidden self-guilt going on here.
My 26 year old son is in the Air Force....I would never presume to tell him how to live his life as this woman apparently tried to do!
The more they speak, the deeper they dig their own public opinion grave.
don't count me in that batch of wacko's. We spend alot of time converting .. some are braindead from the 60's too far gone.
