Well said, Kristinn. Very well stated.
A lot of us wasn't really mad at Sheehan but more towards the various left-wing groups that were exploiting her.
Hopefully, this woman will realize what happened and put her life back together.
Mother Sheehan was the classic definition of the “useful idiot.” A fairly simple, normal woman, probably liberal and anti-war to begin with, who lost her son and was seized upon as “the face of the movement” by the unscrupulous people on the left. And she ate it up with a spoon. The attention, the accolades, the near-worship she got, it probably all became pretty addictive. And now, Reality raises its ugly head, and it’s all over.
I honestly hope she finds some peace, and that she finally comes to realize that her son did NOT die in vain...presuming that her former friends DON’T get their way. The only way that Casey Sheehan died in vain is if we abandon Iraq and the war on Islamist terror.
