Cindy Sheehan Buys Land With Casey's Money
Cindy Sheehan has found a way to spend her son, Casey's, insurance money. She has purchased 5 acres of land in Texas. She says she will keep the land until President Bush's resignation or impeachment which she "hopes will come soon". She, ladies and gentlemen is a nutjob. She has apparently purchased the land, in order to be able to protest on or cheat on a fast on or whatever.
Casey was killed in Iraq by enemy combatants on April 4, 2004 after volunteering as part of a Quick Reaction Force to rescue American troops. His grave did not have a headstone until May 2006 when, due to public pressure, his mother the whacko purchased one. The Department of Veteran Affairs provides one for free upon request, by the way.
So, let's set this all straight. Her son died after volunteering for a mission, a brave thing to do I admit. So, she gets the insurance money. Does she use it for a headstone for her brave son? No. She protests. She gets publicity. She camps out. She gets followers. She sets up a website. She attacks the democratically elected President and the Congressionally approved and funded war. She shows up at events. All this time, her son's grave not identified. Finally over 2 years after his death, his mother gets him a headstone, only after criticism and pressure of him not having one. Then she spends his insurance money to buy land to continue her agenda, saying he would be proud.
Yes, maam. He would be proud that you attack his Commander in Chief. He would be proud that you attack the very cause he fought and died for. He would be proud that you attack the very Congress he signed up to defend. He would be proud that you said you would rather live in a dictatorship than in America. He would be proud that you can't stay on a fast in his memory for more than a few days. He would be proud that you didn't have a headstone put on his grave for over 2 years. Maam, Did you really know your son? He didn't sign up to sell girl-scout cookies. He signed up to defend America, its allies, and the free world. He knew the risks and he took them, willingly. He is a hero. How can you attack the very things he literally fought for? I don't get it.

I wouldn't be surprised.
