Allowing for the loss of Ms Sheehan's son, I find her political posturing despicable.
Her son volunteered to join the military, even without the threat of a draft, and, subsequently I understand, volunteered for a second tour to Iraq. Obviously he felt differently than his mother. IN MY OPINION, his mother is denigrating his memory for what HE believed in and ultimately sacrificed.
If Ms Sheehan wants to protest the war, that is her right; but I feel she should not stand on her son's grave, so to speak, to do it. Any sympathy I had for her was lost as it became obvious she has another agenda in her "protest", not just her associations with left-wing groups, but in her comments about the United States.
I do not support her nor do I have anything for her left-wing support groups. That is the way things are in My World.
