Yeah mom, and why did Roosevelt kill so many in WWII?

I'm sorry you lost your son. I'm also sorry you don't understand that he died with honor to presere your right to carp. Mine too for that matter...

How could anyone be so ignorant and disrespectful of her own son's legacy?

I understand we have lost many in war. Why not thank those that have served and those who are serving to protect us??

Perhaps Bush should visit with her alone. She did lose her son.

Here's the truth - which I'm sure Code Pink will never tell.

Sad when a soldier dies.

Sadder when his parents degrade his memory, put other parents' children in the military at risk, and try to empty their own son's sacrifice of meaning.

Another one who thinks people join the military to NOT be deployed.

The President already met with Cindy Sheehan in July 2004. Here is what she said back then:

"I now know he's sincere about wanting freedom for the Iraqis," Cindy said after their meeting. "I know he's sorry and feels some pain for our loss. And I know he's a man of faith."

Why did you kill my son?

He didn't, an RPG fired by an Iraqi killed your son.

What did my son die for?
For your safety and freedom

If the cause is so noble, why don’t you send your twins?
Because the President doesnt pick and choose, we have a military of noble volunteers.. like your son.

I am guessing she wont do this. However, if she did I bet she would change her mind about the war.

It is tough for any mother to lose her son. May god give her some peace of mind. I am sure Pres Bush forgives her.

As a vet I have seen this scenario, many times. Grief is tough for some to handle, and even harder to see the positive sacrifice that loved ones make, for their country. The price of freedom and liberty is VERY HIGH -- and its going higher. We salute her son, just like the rest of the brave soldiers that have fallen in battle.

No barf alert or negative comment? I see you have posted Code Pink emails before.

He already met with her, her husband and her other children in the WH she's a whining pain no wonder her son enlisted. It was to get away from her.

"We have a lot of respect for the office of the president, and I have a new respect for him because he was sincere and he didn't have to take the time to meet with us," Pat said.

Sincerity was something Cindy had hoped to find in the meeting. Shortly after Casey died, Bush sent the family a form letter expressing his condolences, and Cindy said she felt it was an impersonal gesture.

"I now know he's sincere about wanting freedom for the Iraqis," Cindy said after their meeting. "I know he's sorry and feels some pain for our loss. And I know he's a man of faith."

Ask the terrorist who killed him why. Your son was an adult, he enlisted of his own free will, as I did and millions of the rest of us who have served and are serving in the US armed forces. He knew the risks, again, as we all did. He did his duty, but unfortunately paid the ultimate price for freedom. Don't take it out on the troops who are still serving and don't profane the sacrifices of those who have fallen by associating with this bunch of traitors. They would rather surrender and live as lower than dirt in an islime-ick hellhole than live as free Americans. Your son gave his life for your freedom, and theirs. He knew what he was doing.
