Yes, he'd do more good that way than as president
No, since 9/11 we needed his leadership and guidence in these times of turmoil. 9/11 has taught us that. 9/11
No, he should be out there shooting rifles around those protestors. This is Texas! Yeehah!

By the way your article makes the point that she learned Saddam had no weapons of mass destruction since she met the President.

I'm personally livid about that so imagine the anger level of a woman who just lost her son over a lie.

IIRC the son signed up after 9/11 and supported the war in Afghanistan, he wasn't much of a fan of the Iraq war and became less of a fan of it as it dragged on but fought anyway because he wasn't a deserter.

Anyway I find it highly repellant for people to lecture a mother for misrepresenting what her dead son believed without even bothering to research what her son actually believed.

I have these wierd conflicting feelings about this entire case as an outsider...

On one hand:
==========
-She lost her son, and she's terribly sad, and President Bush did send him to the war she doesn't agree on.
-And even the son didn't agree to the war that he was sent to.

On the other hand:
=============
-It's the army, and you don't get to choose your assignments.
-It's not as if he was drafted - he signed up volountarily, so I think it should be clear to him that he might do some stuff that he wouldn't agree on.
-He was getting paid for it,so, it's, eerily, his job to risk his life, and perhaps die....

but apparenly Ms. Sheehand doesnt think much of the justification for the war in Afghanistan either.


"Am I emotional? Yes, my first born was murdered. Am I angry? Yes, he was killed for lies and for a PNAC Neo-Con agenda to benefit Israel. My son joined the army to protect America, not Israel. Am I stupid? No, I know full well that my son, my family, this nation and this world were betrayed by George Bush who was influenced by the neo-con PNAC agendas after 9/11. We were told that we were attacked on 9/11 because the terrorists hate our freedoms and democracy … not for the real reason, because the Arab Muslims who attacked us hate our middle-eastern foreign policy."

Bush would be great comic relief were it not for the war.

otoh were it not for the war he'd probably screw up the global economy, which would affect me more.

Except Sheehan denies she ever said that. Is there a verifiable source? According to her, someone got a hold of an actual e-mail she wrote to Nightline and then added the comments about Israel. Considering the outright falsehoods the likes of Drudge have flung at her, I wouldn't be surprised in the least.
