FAMILY OF FALLEN SOLDIER PLEADS: PLEASE STOP, CINDY! Thu Aug 11 2005 12:56:21 ET
The family of American soldier Casey Sheehan, who was killed in Iraq on April 4, 2004, has broken its silence and spoken out against his mother Cindy Sheehan's anti-war vigil against George Bush held outside the president's Crawford, Texas ranch.
The following email was received by the DRUDGE REPORT from Casey's aunt and godmother:
Our family has been so distressed by the recent activities of Cindy we are breaking our silence and we have collectively written a statement for release. Feel free to distribute it as you wish. Thanks Ð Cherie
In response to questions regarding the Cindy Sheehan/Crawford Texas issue: Sheehan Family Statement:
The Sheehan Family lost our beloved Casey in the Iraq War and we have been silently, respectfully grieving. We do not agree with the political motivations and publicity tactics of Cindy Sheehan. She now appears to be promoting her own personal agenda and notoriety at the the expense of her son's good name and reputation. The rest of the Sheehan Family supports the troops, our country, and our President, silently, with prayer and respect.
Sincerely,
Casey Sheehan's grandparents, aunts, uncles and numerous cousins.
Developing..
Thanks for the story, I just couldn't resist knowing how it all turned out for you.
-15 soon
Yep. Her family is trying to save her from the left wing cultists. She'd be wise to listen to her family.
Your service, your sacrifice, and that of all of our other service men and women keeps us safe and free.
Thank you.
"lapping suckerfish"... LOL, I like that.
Our pleasure. I will do it again if called. Even if I am 54 now.
"I thought I heard her say on the news that she is a "family of one". Anyone else here that? I didn't hear Cindy say that .... but the women that O'Reilly had on last might said that."
The whining woman on O'Reilly last night did say that she's a "family of one". It wasn't Sheehan; Sheehan wouldn't appear on his show, so he replaced her with Bush-hating lib mom.
C'mon. They just want to be like their new hero Cindy, dancing on her son's grave and shouting, "I't all about MEEEEE!"

Cherie Quartarolo (and yes, I spelled it wrong in the first post) confirmed the statement and has forwarded it to others. Melanie Morgan let me know that it has been confirmed. Melanie's statement:
I have recieved many phone calls, letters, and inquiries about the veracity of the letter sent to me by the family of SFC Casey Sheehan, who died in Iraq. His mother Cindy Sheehan is now camping out at the presidential ranch in Crawford, Texas demanding a meeting with Mr. Bush to 'explain his noble cause for which her son died'.
The letter came from Cheri Quarterolo, a regular listener of KSFO Radio. Cheri is Casey Sheehan's Aunt and godmother. I have confirmed that the letter represents the entire Sheehan side of Casey's family.
Many of the relatives do not want their names made public, and will not be making further statements. But Mrs. Quarterolo confirms that Cindy's actions have been extremely hurtful. "We're coming unglued. We can't walk down the street without people stopping us and telling us that they agree with Cindy. We do not."
Mrs. Quarterolo has now spoken with Matt Drudge, and confirmed her identity for his Internet News website.
Best Regards,
Melanie Morgan, co-host of The Lee Rodgers and Melanie Morgan show, KSFO, San Francisco
I also received a confirmation from Cherie Quartarolo herself confirming her statement.

....oh to be a mouse in the corner at Thanksgiving....
"mamma, he's not dead just wounded". Mamma's can't help but worry. But I bet she bragged about you to everyone, even after being wounded. I'm sure she proudly displayed your pictures. Thank you for your service.
ROFL...
You are the greatest!

I wrote it yesterday: She's going to do something rash very soon.
You get the sense that DUmmies would like to call a constitutional convention and just start over with some dumbass "multicultural" constitution (even though this country has ALWAYS been multicultural, without the quotes). Having an abortion is a greater deed to them than serving in the military; wanting to keep as much of your own money, which you earned by following the rules, is a sign of selfishness (wanting to bring up your own kids with your own money is selfish?); they have 10,000 posts attacking Bush to every one attacking Saddam, UBL or terrorists.
They don't love this country; they love what it could be if only it were eradicated and rebuilt from scratch.
