THE ANGRY MOM CAMPING IN CRAWFORD TELLS TWO DIFFERENT STORIES
Early yesterday, I told you about the story of Mrs. Cindy Sheehan, the mother of a brave American soldier who gave his life last year in the line of duty in Iraq. She has been really pissed-off about this, and has turned into quite a peace activist. And, that’s just fine.
So, she decided that she would camp out at George Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas this week. She has started a political movement and an organization, demanding to speak with the president. She wants to know why George W. Bush "killed her son."
She wants us to ignore the fact that her son was killed by Islamic terrorists in Sadr City.
But now that Mrs. Sheehan has put herself out there, people have begun doing a little research.
Enter the Drudge Report. (Say what you will, but you cannot deny that he’s usually right. And, most of the time, he’s first, too.) . . . . It seems not only has Mrs. Sheehan already met with George Bush, but there are two stories about what took place . . . .
The story she's currently telling, that she met with him and he was mean and indifferent to her, directly contradicts the story she told after that meeting took place last year. Just take a look at what she told a reporter then:
"'I now know he's sincere about wanting freedom for the Iraqis. I know he's
sorry and feels some pain for our loss. And I know he's a man of faith."
She also talked about how her life briefly returned to normal, (one could only assume that a bit of normalcy caused her some consternation, and she just couldn’t stand it):
"That was the gift the president gave us, the gift of happiness, of being
together."
Hmmmmmm, . . . . Now, . . . let's fast-forward to the present day, where she's singing a different tune:
"Every time we tried to talk [to President Bush] about Casey and how much we missed him, he would change the subject. And he acted like it was a party."Does she really think no one would notice this disparity in her approach?? Go home, Mrs. Sheehan. You're the ONLY one dishonoring your son's memory. You do him, and his memory, a great disservice!! Most Americans think the world of your son. They honor his memory far more than you apparently realize. They recognize his contribution to the preservation of the freedoms they enjoy daily, and would never consider doing what you're doing. Go home and grieve. You'll be much better off, for it.
God Bless,
