I flip between feeling sorry for the woman and despising her. Obviously her loss is great and the sullen poses of her are not always a fake. Then I hear her speak and just wish she would just disappear.
In the end she was just a tool of the left, who threw her away like trash when they were done with her. And her only true sycophants are the media who try to keep her story alive.
I stopped feeling sorry for her when she started saying Casey died in vain!
Couldn't agree more. Some day she will be alone with her own thoughts, and her mind will shift from the current issues to her relationship with her son. Even she will probably come to realize that she let down his memory, and her duty to her flesh and blood should have commanded her loyalty rather than this impulsive, undignified circus she allowed to seduce her. Eventually she may see this as the attack on her son that it was. God help her.
Yup, I have the same sentiment.
I know that people yawn when oldsters mention WW2. But there were a lot of Gold Star mothers then. One of my best friends was killed in Germany. He was an only son of an older couple, who lived next door to my grandparents.
The situation was tragic, as any event like this is. But my friend's mother never thought of being a Mother Sheehan and camping out at Warm Springs or other homes of FDR. In fact, it would have been considered in total bad taste or worse by most people.
Cindy, go home. Your five minutes have long passed, and nobody wants anything to do with you.
