FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 29, 2007
CONTACT: Robert Dixon (916) 441-6197 phone or Robert@MoveAmericaForward.org
A group of Gold Star Family members, who have lost a son or daughter in the war on terrorism, today issued the following statement in response to Cindy Sheehans announcement that she is halting her public anti-war protests. For more information log on to: www.MoveAmericaForward.org
We are very pleased to hear that Cindy Sheehan is ending her disgraceful campaign to discredit the United States military and the heroic men and women in harms way in Iraq and Afghanistan. We sympathize with the shared pain from losing a child in the war effort, however, we cannot excuse the fact that Cindy has taken the wrong turn at every corner in assigning blame for the loss of her heroic son, Casey.
Casey Sheehan was a proud member of the United States Armed Forces. He believed in serving his country faithfully and volunteered for the duty assignment that led to his death at the hands of Islamic extremists. He should have been the example followed by Cindy Sheehan. Instead, she chose to associate with the most virulent anti-American elements in the United States and abroad.
Throughout her public demonstrations, Cindy Sheehan has repeatedly been dismissive of the majority of Gold Star Parents who disagree with her stance on the war. Cindy Sheehan does not speak for us, nor thankfully does she speak for most Americans. Its time for Cindy to go home and put her life back together and realize just how fortunate she is to live in the greatest nation on earth.
We are saddened that Cindys withdrawal from political activities is because she was disappointed that more Americans did not accept her distorted worldview that America is the blame for all of the ills of the world. Perhaps off the world stage, she will be able to regain her bearings and see that her son and America were serving the cause of freedom in the world and security at home. God Bless the United States of America, and may God help Cindy Sheehan to heal from the pain and bitterness that have consumed her.

Cindy Sheehan gets spanked = PING!
Cindy Sheehan Rebuked by Gold Star Families - ALERT!
It is a shame that the liberal media gives all the publicity to Cindy Sheehan and her anti-American rants, but normally ignores the Gold Star family members who have stood up for our troops and their mission for America.
Sheehan has been a puppet of the Democrats during the last election season, but they have discarded her like an old rag. Her kooky rantings were making them look bad. Fortunately, they are still part of the looney left and will expose themselves again.
Thank you to the Gold Star families who have stood up to Cindy Sheehan.
Nice letter. Shut up Cindy!
You can add my signature to the list!
I won’t hold my breath on this dingbat. The twisted way her brain works all this might be is a way to be in the headlines for another round of press coverage.
Outstanding post! Thanks for the ping. America’s finest! BTTT!
I’m sure Katie Couric will include this press release in her news program tonight [crickets...]
Buh-bye, Cindy!
Now that’s class act from true patriots !!
Amen and God bless the Gold Star Mothers....
Why does anyone assume Cindy Sheehan told the truth, and that she will stay in “retirement”?
Ding Dong

A $1 says it's one of the first three stories she "reports".
Perhaps everyone is so excited to hear that her virulent, American-bashing routine is scheduled to come to an end that everyone, including the media, are helping to say “OK, you said you’re going away, so this is it for you, your number won’t be called again, so now you really have to go home because you are not welcome back on the public stage again.”
