Smart man...
All this time, I heard Mother Sheehan whine about Casey's unmarked grave. She's so concerned about it, that she's personally getting her son a well-deserved headstone... Oh, Pat's doing that too.
She has such concern for her son. What a good mother...
At first I wondered if you held your nose to type that but then I began to wonder if you'd showed restraint and only typed half a word.
This is slander. The mortuary should sue...he'd win and show this crazy woman for who she is.
Not soon enough for him, I'll bet.
It's generally accepted that a gravestone won't set well if put on too hastily after the burial. I believe it is customary to wait one year for the earth to settle.
We're going on two years and you can bet your sweet bippie the headstone wouldn't have been placed by five years if the story hadn't hit the fan.
I'm thinking this funeral director has a lot more credibility than what passes for Casey's mom. What a sad and revolting development...
I sure hope this was BEFORE her insanity started. The thought of this "lady" leading youth in anything makes me sick.
What is bizarre about this is not only is she lying for no stupid reason at all, but no one in the mainstream media is calling her on it. Why? Can't we just shoot her with tranquilizer guns full on anti psychotic medicines for about six weeks then when she's rational maybe she'll go home and shut up?
All this "grieving mother" crap from ABCNNBCBS...Grieving mothers don't spit on their children's graves.
"Sheehan also said that Casey's grave site was now being handled by her soon-to-be ex-husband Patrick."
Congratulations Patrick.
Making sure BIG MEDIA was informed in plenty of time.
There could be donations for a really big patriotic headstone to help the dad out.
(But that would be policticizing Casey's death & his mother would never do that!)
Like all true liberals, she is a cheapskate too. She expects others to pay her freight and still complains about them.
"Patrick Sheehan said Monday that the small plaque currently marking Casey's grave is something all graves receive before a headstone is constructed."
Should we assume from this that Ma Sheehan has declined the Government-provided headstone that all Veterans are entitled to at no cost?
Actually in this case "the freight" was on the US military. I wonder why the funding wasn't enough to cover the costs is this case? If the military was causing out of pocket costs for the families to bury their deceased, the libs would have had a hayday with it.
Depends on the options at the funeral home selected by the family?
All that Cindy Sheehan has done to her son's grave is piss on it...
Not a good idea.
She is getting pretty good at playing the victim, i.e., the mother peace activist who lost her son in a illegal war.
Besides, she is starting to fade from fame and is just looking for another opportunity to promote herself.
Yes GREAT IDEA. Bring in the Patriot Guard Riders, some decorated vets of all ages, maybe an entertainer who supports the troops... Ms Sheehan would never do that, but someone could..... or is this just a fantasy idea?
Read: A subtle plea for donations from her remaining sympathizers.
I think it would sound something like this:
'Oh my poor son! He died in the war and now he is forced to rest in an unmarked grave that isn't even paid for. Oh, the shame! Now I am forced to survive by standing under bridges and in culverts with a "Will Protest For Food" sign. Oh, the inhumanity! Please help right this injustice --
