Thanks for the link, 2nd!

This is worth the read, GOE PING!

Thanks for the ping.. A most excellent article. I feel sorry for Mr. Sheehan and Casey. One has class and love in abundance while the other is a brace warrior for freedom and for Christ.

These are the men that make Aemrica, not Cindy.

Thank you so much for the ping. It is nice to hear from Casey’s father how proud he was of him. You sure don’t hear that from Sheshrew!!

Thanks MountainFlower.

One problematic aspect of Cindy Sheehan's celebrity has been that her deceased son got lost in the news coverage. Nobody knows much about how Casey Sheehan lived or how he died... Casey Sheehan so loved his Catholic faith that he considered the priesthood, before realizing how much he wanted to be a father himself... As a teen, he earned the rank of Eagle Scout. Later he would quip that the military was "kind of like Boy Scouts, but with guns." Casey Sheehan signed up before the Sept. 11 attacks. His service had nothing to do with revenge, his father says... Casey Sheehan wanted to be a chaplain's assistant. Faced with a wait to become one, he chose to be a wheel mechanic instead. As a soldier, he was always the first to greet a visiting priest. If no priest came to say mass, he would lead a prayer... "For all of my children, Casey, Carly, Andy and Jane, I am attempting to move forward with a little grace and dignity. They deserve nothing less."
