DFU SONG: If I Only Had a Brain (Cindy Sheehan has gone insane)

She is crazy...she is freakin' crazy
When will the guys wearing white coats show up and take her away...ha ha

Her son Casey was a hero...but mommy is a zero
Her language is profane
Our compassion she'd gotten but the woman has turned rotten
Cindy's really gone insane

With Code Pinkos in attendance...we've watched her grand ascendance
Her hate she can't contain
Our compassion she'd gotten but the woman has turned rotten
Cindy's really gone insane

For other sons she shows she doesn't give a damn
She is giving aid and comfort, it is true
The enemy says "Thank you, ma'am"

She says her son she has channeled...her mind has been dismantled
She's now a royal pain
Our compassion she'd gotten but the woman has turned rotten
Cindy's really gone insane

She has had her 15 minutes...she says we cannot win it
She'd run away like Spain
Our compassion she'd gotten but the woman has turned rotten
Cindy's really gone insane

By the press corps she is followed...the whole thing they have swallowed
For her we have disdain
Our compassion she'd gotten but the woman has turned rotten
Cindy's really gone insane

For other sons she shows she doesn't give a damn
She has helped the enemy
We hear them say... "Thanks, ma'am"

While our leader she's berating...make-up lady's waiting
She suddenly is vain
Our compassion she'd gotten but the woman has turned rotten
Cindy's really gone insane

Al-Jazeera has been quoting...I think that is well worth noting
It's one nutty campaign
Our compassion she'd gotten but the woman has turned rotten
Cindy's really gone insane

The cartographers are smitten...on Thomas Guides it's written
The ditch is Cindy Lane
Our compassion she'd gotten but the woman has turned rotten
Cindy's really gone insane

For other sons she shows she doesn't give a damn
She is giving aid and comfort, it is true
The enemy says "Thank you, ma'am"

What she's doing is sedition...she's taken the position
As our new Hanoi Jane
Our compassion she'd gotten but the woman has turned rotten
Cindy's really gone insane
She has gone insane

Cindy Sheehan: “Casey Wanted To Fight For His Country” -- April 6, 2004 TV News Interview

It is truly sad how Cindy Sheehan has dishonored her son in so many ways. She has called the men who killed him, "freedom fighters." She has even tried to hint that he died from "friendly fire."

And perhaps worst of all, Cindy appears to have blatantly misrepresented Casey's thinking about his service and the Iraq war. Casey's father, Patrick, is now on record of saying that his son was proud of his service in the Army.

And there is this is story, from the San Francisco CBS affiliate--dated April 6, 2004. The same date as Casey's death.

Bay Area Soldier Dies in Iraq

Jeffrey Schaub

One of the most recent U.S. casualties in the war in Iraq was a 24-year-old Bay Area man.

Army Specialist Casey Sheehan of Vacaville died over the weekend when the vehicle he was riding in was attacked in Baghdad. He had been in the country less than two weeks.

"He just wanted to go over to fight for his country, and serve his country," said Sheehan's mother Cindy Sheehan.

In fact, Casey Sheehan served in the Army twice, first in the late 1990s. This past August, he re-enlisted. Sheehan's father said when the chaplains arrived at his door Sunday night, he just couldn't believe it.

"I told them, 'My son has only been gone in Iraq for two weeks. This has to be a mistake,'" Patrick Sheehan said. "They just said, 'Please, Mr. Sheehan, let us in. We have to come in and talk to you.'"

Casey Sheehan graduated from Vacaville High School with honors. He was an Eagle Scout, and his family said he loved the Catholic Church from an early age.

"He died on Palm Sunday, and it's very fitting because he was so faithful. He went to Mass every Sunday," Cindy Sheehan said. "The last time I talked to him he called me from Kuwait and he was on his way to church."

Sister Carly Sheehan said, "I was thinking about my brother today, and I have never, never heard him utter one bad word about anybody. He loved everybody he came in contact with and cared about everybody. He would stay up at night worrying about the world. From the time he was little, my mom would find him awake at night. He couldn't sleep because he was too worried about the world. He just wanted to take care of the world, and he gave his life for it." » 04-06-2004

This story contains a link to a video which is no longer accessible. Presumably it features the Sheehan family's reactions. It probably contains Cindy's remarks that I've highlighted below. The station probably still has a copy.

I wonder why we haven't seen it.

Should I start up the song ping list again so you can go to bed early and get pinged in the morning?

Sure, that sounds good to me, Doug. You can ping me anytime... I was just kidding about your late-night song-launch last night. ;-D

I was wondering why I haven't been pinged to your songs for awhile... did you dismantle the list?

Well, even with your DFU song ping list, no guarantees I'll be in bed "early" every night, as long as FR continues to be as informative and entertaining as it is... ;-)
