Cindy Sheehan: “Grieving Mother”
Two things we’ll never hear from Cindy Sheehan:
1). I want to ask everyone for a moment of silence to remember the memory of my son, Casey; his dedication to military service (enlisting against my wishes) and his duty to protecting our nation.
2). I want to thank my son for giving me the opportunity to leverage the legacy of his death in order to catapult me from obscurity to media celebrity status, securing a footnote in history, while bashing the Presidency and the government for which he served.
My new, true love. Media whore.

At one time, I thought that she was pathetic. Now, I think she’s disgusting. She dishonors her son and those who have made that ultimate sacrifice … one that apparently isn’t appreciated. She may have been the motivating factor for her son joining the Army in the first place.

Wow you guys are rough on Saint Cindy. She needed this because she came off just a little selfish when she complained that the media was wasting time covering at those little rainstorms in the south. Look she is in grief. Can you deny the woman (yuck) a little pleasure when her husband and whole family divorced her. Come on these are the best looking guys that have ever grabbed her in her life. Look there might be a gopher loose in her garden, but you really just don’t understand the depth of grief he has suffered from. It was tough for her dancing with her brother at her senior prom all those years ago. It gets too you. Imagine how tough it is to get up in the morning and take on the biggest terrorist in the world, who is waging a war against freedom fighters who support Saddam and the billions he was paid. have any of you tried to stop a nuclear war??? Its bad enough when New Orleans is held by a Army in occupation, but there is alot of pressure fighting all those evil republicans who are only supporting the war for Iraq’s oil and Jews. Let her have a moment to smile huh! Remember it is far better to have one’s head cut off than to be forced to grab one’s privates. Such torture like I’ve never seen.

[...] AP reports: “Peace mom Cindy Sheehan, after wrapping up her tour of the country, returned home Wednesday to northern California where she plans to continue her protest of the Iraq war.” “I’ll be a grieving mom until I die because of the lies that took my son,” said Sheehan, making her first public appearance in the liberal San Francisco Bay area since the August vigil. “I plan on keeping this up until the troops are brought home.

[...] “I never wrote anything more than a note to excuse my kids from school before Casey was killed, so to see something I wrote in print with my name on it is amazing,” Sheehan told The Associated Press by phone from her home in Berkeley, Calif. Oh. Please. Seeing her name in headlines seems to be an ongoing motivation. She’s not camera shy, either. Sheehan shares details about Casey, her oldest child grew up to be an Eagle scout who considered becoming a priest. He enlisted, Sheehan said, to give something back to the country. [...]
