She lost her child.

How one respnds to tragedy is a personal choice.

Cindy made hers. . .and if she engenders a visceral, hateful response to her own efforts to diminish the loss of others who like her; are suffering their own tragedies; so be it.

My compliments, Kristinn. You’re a class act all the way.

On some level I despise the woman deeply, but she’s also one pitiful human being, used by people more evil than she could have conceived.

She's been living in a studio apartment owned by the two lawyers who hung a soldier effigy from the rafters of another rental property they own.

Let's see how "caring" these peace and social justice people are about Cindy now that she's no longer useful.

Your “healing” comments were classy. Well done.

It’s how she disparages what her son stood for that is disgusting about this ‘woman’. She has done the verbal equivalent of urinating on his grave and memory.

Is anyone other then me somewhat surprised that this resignation would come so soon after they discovered all those funds missing from her Crawford Texas Office?

Me thinks she is going on the lamb LOL

So she is not responsible for her actions......she gets an eternal pass regardless of her treachery?

I think that there is a significant portion of "lost her mind" in there, which others played upon and manipulated, and the MSM carefully edited. As Kristinn notes, there were people who did everything that they could to keep her in that state. If it was simple treachery and not madness, I don't think you'd have heard her protest the "Federal occupation of New Orleans" after Katrina.

here is teh back up info on my claim above

TEXAS.
There are allegations of money mismanagement and threats of court action, and members are now leaving the group sponsored by Cindy Sheehan in Crawford, the adopted hometown of President Bush. The Crawford Peace House has lost its corporate charter with the state, and a former member who has rights to the name is now threatening legal action. The organization found its origins from the work of Cindy Sheehan, an anti-war protester.

I know - I was just thinking that the loss of her son drove her over the edge.

I also doubt this woman’s intelligence - I know she has been used and led around by some very nasty political hacks.

She is a pawn - in the worst way -

This isn’t over with. Cindy’s a publicity whore, and it’s a safe bet she’ll find other ways to make a public ass out of herself. Just wait.

The leftists still support Cindy, they just don't support her mission.

Casey did indeed die for nothing
This is the most amazing thing to me. Her son obviously believed in what he was doing and died for what he believed in but his own mother posthumously calls him a liar, over and over again.

They are positively PRO-Palestinian war. They are NOT a peace movement. Where is their rally to protest kidnappings, suicide bombings, tortures, and beheadings?

Some even carry “I support the Iraqi insurgency” banners.

Well said, kristinn.

Samtheman, that statement stood out to me, as well. "was that Casey did indeed die for nothing ... killed by his own country which is beholden to and run by a war machine that even controls what we think."

That is one truly lost and confused person. Casey did not die for nothing. I'd say she has a long road to acceptance of her son's sacrifice for this country.

Here in WI, she has as much credibility as Steven Avery.

Yeah, and leave Axis Sally and Lord Haw Haw alone too.

She palls around with Communist dictators.

She offered to hit her own son with the family car before he was deployed.

She is clearly off her rocker. But she was unbalanced long before her son died. He enlisted, she opposed that decision.
