Because she is lying about it and making a media circus out of it. She has probably gotten tens of thousands of dollars in donations.

17 months after he son, who REENLISTED in the Army, was killed in action. More then a year after she met with President Bush.

Kind of hard to keep the old "grieving mother" propaganda line going when you know the facts

No, she lied. Through her teeth.

Pah. Where have you been Whitey? Do some research yourself and find out why ya knucklehead.

Are you of the opinion that everyone who has a bone to pick with the president of the US should get a meeting with him after they slander him? How about 2 meetings like Cindy-the-Micheal-Moore Standin wants?

Come on, WhiteGuy, you can't be serious.
She didn't change her mind, she mischaracterized what went on at the first meeting.
She changed her story, not her mind. Wake Up.

It isn't that she changed her mind, it's that she's trying to make it seem like he's refused to meet her.

I am sorry- If my son is killed by terrorist thugs while he is trying to defend freedom and my family... I can't get up, I can't sleep, eat or get dressed. I have no time for publicity stunts or photos ops..let alone stalking the President of the United States...

She sure looks like she is having fun here....

Because describing a different set of facts is not changing one's mind. It's changing one's story.

I'll tell you what.

She is harming every honorable member of the U.S. military serving in harm's way, and she is spitting on the grave of her son.

Besides, you're naive if you think she's 'changed her mind.' She's a long time leftist (friend of yours?), who is maliciously using her son's honorable death for an anti-American political agenda. It's reprehensible.

The President was kind to her, and showed his sincere concern (which she admitted, before she lied), and now she's stabbing him in the back, and in turn the military, the mission, and this country.

If her anti-Americanism doesn't bother you, then we all have to ask what's wrong with you..........

The big deal to me is that her son was killed, the President personally expressed his grief, and she not only accepted that, she said he gave her family "the gift of happiness" in the course of discussing her son's sacrifice in this meeting.

Now her description is completely different, and she pretends there is NO difference in her characterization--she's just changed her mind, as you describe.

But the problem is that now she's working with all kinds of anti-war organizations and anti-Israel groups and claiming that she wants another meeting so the President can "explain" why her son died, when in fact she has already made up her mind, and claims Bush killer her son.

So what, exactly, is her point? She denounces the President left and right, completely changes her story about the meeting they DID have, and is now the leader of the anti-war parade. Simply put, she's disingenuous, and the MSM carefully hide her anti-Israel politics, as well. She claims to want to hear something from the President when she has already made up her mind and merely wants a SECOND meeting, to bolster her activist credentials--but she certainly doesn't SAY that.

You say that politicians lie, too, so what? OK, so why should we promote the agenda of yet another liar? Unless you think lying is OK in the discourse about this war, I do think such a liar being protrayed as some innocent IS a big deal when she is in such a prominent position, and is the centerpiece of the liberal media's attempts to propagandize.

It's not so much she changed her mind, per se, it is the fact she now changed her story of the meeting with the President.


From knowing he cared to a cad that made a mockery of the meeting.

Most dishonest of her.
