Mother Sheehan, Too Busy to Honor Casey
Gateway Pundit Blog ^ | 3/9/2006 | Gateway Pundit

Posted on 03/10/2006 6:57:56 AM PST by BRUMama

Mother Sheehan has been too busy these last two years to put a headstone on Casey's grave!

As LT. Smash pointed out, Cindy was given a $250,000 payout when Casey died.

But it's not about cost, anyway...

What makes this even more outrageous is that the Department of Veterans Affairs provides tombstones or markers for free to eligible veterans:

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) furnishes upon request, at no charge to the applicant, a government headstone or marker for the grave of any deceased eligible veteran in any cemetery around the world. For all deaths occurring before September 11, 2001, the VA may provide a headstone or marker only for graves that are not marked with a private headstone.

Flat markers in granite, marble, and bronze and upright headstones in granite and marble are available. The style chosen must be consistent with existing monuments at the place of burial. Niche markers are also available to mark columbaria used for inurnment of cremated remains. So the only reason that Casey is without a headstone is because Cindy has been too busy to arrange for a headstone to be placed on her son's grave!

Talk about hypocricy... she has claimed the whole reason she does what she does is to honor her son, and yet she has not yet put a headstone on his grave. That is disgraceful!

She's too busy reveling in her 15 minutes, which she's intent on extending at all costs. None of this is about her son anymore, and it hasn't been for a long time. It's about her.

It's not like it wouldn't be a wonderful photo-op. She just needs advice from Michael Moore on how to exploit it little better.

Why should she want a headstone? She's too busy propping up his body.

That is just sad!

But she's hit at least three continents and Hawaii in the last three months! And, has had time to March with Marxists in Venezuela.

Thanks for posting the memorial site, Coop. I didn't notice photos posted there. Here's one of him.
