Cindy Sheehan

I can sympathize with Mrs. Sheehan over the loss of her son. Still, while she continues to act and speak in a rather lunatic manor, I have to point a few things out. First, her son volunteered to join the Armed Forces. It has been since the ‘70’s since we have had the draft. Since he volunteered, it cannot be argued that he did not know what he was heading into. He decided as an Adult to go and serve his nation as a member of the Armed Forces. Secondly, she has already met with the President of the United States. He spent his precious time honoring her son, and she turns around and just craps all over it. All this shows is that she is a selfish, ungrateful woman. Third, she demands that we pull out of Iraq now. This is the epitome of ignorance. If we were to indeed abandon Iraq and the commitment we made to her citizens now, it would only further endanger the lives of every American in the world, including here in the continental States. Finally, I can only conclude that her grief and anger has driven all rationality from her. Her family has disavowed her. Her husband has filed for divorce. The little woman in Crawford is nothing more than an whiner.
