He met with her 2 months after his death, before she had time to go through the processes and even know how she felt. He breezed in like they were throwing him a tea party, didn't even bother to be briefed on who was being honored and called her mom a bunch of times. Some meeting.
Millions of Americans have changed their mind about the Iraq war since then and the poll numbers are such that they obviously include die-hard Republicans.

Then you must be calling Cindy Sheehan a liar when she says her son said he didn't want to go to Iraq. He felt he had been lied to.
Here is the best thing I have read on the subject all week:
Quote:
Good morning, campers.
You know, we?ve seen the right wing smear so many people, shouldn?t it be transparent by now? I mean, here?s Cindy Sheehan, a woman who lost her son in Iraq ? Specialist Casey Sheehan, killed in a hail of grenades and small-arms fire in 2004. And she just wants to ask the president what noble cause her son died for. George Bush says all the time that soldiers are dying for a noble cause. So what is it?
It?s not weapons of mass destruction ? which we didn?t find, and which George Bush didn?t give weapons inspectors a chance to find ? or NOT find. It wasn?t just to remove Saddam Hussein, since America seemed comfortable doing business with him before. It?s not to stop terrorism, since terrorists weren?t there before we invaded ? and some of the enemy WEREN?T terrorists before we invaded. It wasn?t to avenge 9/11, since Saddam had nothing to do with that.
Why are we really there? It?s a fair question.
So the right wing is smearing her for it. You?ve got so called " broadcasters" like this guy Bob Newman in Denver implying she?s racist, that she?s selfish, that she?s on the side of the 9/11 terrorists. This arrogant creep even presumes to speak for her son. It?s just like what they did with John Kerry?s war record. They take what?s most noble about somebody and they smear it with filth.
You know what?s really behind this? You know why neo-cons come out with that kind of lying, desperate garbage?
Because they can?t answer Cindy Sheehan?s question either.
I?m Randi Rhodes, and I approve this message.
