RESPONSE TO LETTER ABOUT CINDY
Edited on Mon Apr-10-06 11:15 PM by az chela

Subject: Something... and Half of Something


I have read your blogs about Cindy Sheehan and have determined that YOU need a life!!!!
Cindy is doing what she is doing for her love of her son Casey Austin Sheehan.
Let me ask you this,do you have anyone serving in the middle east?So you have personal knowlege of what is happening to our troops and the Iraqi people??
If you condone this war than you condone murder for the sake of oil and greed.
YOu need to get off your ass and go to Iraq and get the true facts about this war
and how the american people have been set up!!!!
Since you seem to know so much about Cindy do you know that she rarely sleeps as she is busy writing,giving speeches ,participating in peace marches.If you condemn her than you also condemn the veterans for peace and also the parents of the troops who have been killed!!!Also you have no feeling for the horrible atrocities that are happening to the Iraqi people .YOu also support the retarded commander in chief who stole 2 elections and is in the white house illegally.He cares nothing about the people who are being slaughtered so he can bring it on.
Since his children or any of his relatives are fighting in this war I guess he doesnt want to sacrifice any of them for his just cause.
Since you have all your facts wrong I would like to know what the hell busines is it of yours what Cindy does with her money and doesnt want a tombstone for Casey.My son also was killed and I cannot bear to throw his ashes to the wind as I had originally planned on doing.
Did it ever occur to you that the finality is too painful???
You must not have a life if all you do in your spare time is to trash other people and support an administration that is truly the axis of evil.
Every day more of their crimes are being exposed and evidently you dont have enough sense to read about these events.
Perhaps when bush bombs Iran you will get it.In the meantime maybe you should go back to school and get an education so that you will be capable of seeing the real truth.
You are to be pitied for your stupidity.
Judy

1. This site is a complete waste of time and insulting
not worth anyone's time, IMO.

5. There are a couple of articulate defenders there
who make intelligent replies. But the majority of those people are despicably hateful and downright cruel.

I don't beleve it is anyone's business why there is or isn't a marker on Casey's grave. That is up to his family to decide.

I know if I were in that family, I wouldn't want a marker for fear that it would be vandalized by some RW lunatic.

7. I noticed several said they can't imagine anyone vandalizing the grave
but I guess they must be living in a dream world. I was in Crawford in August and I saw first hand how insanely hateful and violent Cindy's critics are.

I stand on the corner twice a week here in my city holding a sign protesting this damn war and I see first hand how ignorant the war mongers are. (They also seem to have a problem with one finger that sticks up.)

Anyone who believes this grave would be protected is not paying attention.

8. I believe some of these people wouldn't hesitate
They would take great joy in desecrating Casey's grave.

I read about the crosses getting ran down. It wasn't about them being crosses...it was what they represented and that was a disgrace.

20. Those were probably the same loonies
That were obsessed with Terri Schiavo's grave not being marked.

2. Cindy sent this email out tonight:
I am so tired of the Rovian, heartless, and ignorant smear machine attacking me and my family at every turn of my back.

The latest abomination in their scrutiny of my life is the fact that Casey has no "tombstone." As if it was anybody's business but Casey's family. I am sure every last person who has a problem with this has buried a child and they know what we are going through.

I am being smeared because I have a new car and I have "blown" through "$250,000.00" dollars of Casey's insurance money. I am sure that they have ready access to my bank accounts, too. I know I am writing this to compassionate people who would rather focus on an administration who lies, tortures, kills innocent people using conventional and chemical weapons, spies on its citizens without due process, and is treacherous in outing a CIA operative for petty-high school like revenge thereby endangering her, her family, and her fellow CIA agents. If it wasn't for these criminals my son wouldn't need a tombstone.

I will tell the world why Casey has no marker yet. In the first place, does anyone who is attacking me know how Casey was brought home from Iraq? We picked him up in the United loading dock in a cardboard box and he was off-loaded into a hearse without one honor guard. We had to wait for about a half hour on a curb near the United freight area while we waited for his one escort that rode from Dover Air Force Base in a seat, while Casey was treated as an over-sized piece of luggage. Has anybody held their other sobbing children while sitting on a curb in San Francisco waiting for the remains of their big brother to be carried over to the dock by a forklift?

Our so-called, illegitimate president has never attended a funeral nor can families see the pictures of their loved ones as they are hauled like freight with flags on them from an immoral war zone. WE don't see them because Mama Bush doesn't want to "bother her pretty mind" with the images. America doesn't want to be bothered, either. We had a Casualty Officer who abandoned us when our mortuary refused to pay the cemetery and told us that the "government sent the money to the mortuary, so now it is your problem. You may have to sue the mortuary." Our government discards and dishonors its own.

My Casey wasn't always a soldier. He was a son and brother whose murder has left an aching hole in our lives worse than an amputation. Sooner, or later, amputations heal and quit throbbing, this hole never will, or can, heal.

For the first year after Casey was killed, I didn't want to believe it. I didn't want to place a TOMBstone on my son's grave. I didn't want one more marble proof that my son was dead. I couldn't even call where he was buried a "cemetery," I had to call it "Casey's Park." I placed fresh flowers in the cup every week and journaled there almost on a daily basis, and often laid on it and fell asleep and dreamed of my needlessly killed son. Have any of these people who claim that I am pissing on my son's grave even visited him? Have they visited the grave of any soldier needlessly or senselessly killed in George's war of choice for oil and profit? Have they sobbed uncontrollably for my first born who shouldn't even need a gravestone? No, all they want to do is attack a mother who wants to prevent other people from having to bury their own child. They want to perpetuate a war that has already killed many thousands of our fellow human beings for absolutely nothing.

Casey's shell is buried in Vacaville, California, not his spirit. He lives with me and he is constantly with me as I travel the world so other families, Iraqi or American do not have to bury their children. Casey lives in the hearts of everyone who wants peace and works for peace. He will never truly die.

There are many people who the Bush regime have killed either directly, or indirectly, by their murderous policies: there are people buried under rubble of Iraq and were buried under the rubble of the World Trade Towers and if their families were lucky could find small parts to bury, before their remains were carted away in the enormous trucks and barges; there are people still unaccounted for in the swamps of New Orleans and in refrigerated trucks in Mississippi that will never even have graves, let alone gravestones. The Bush regime is good for business, all right, especially the funeral business.

I know these people are searching for proof that I am a horrible person and it must be evidence that I didn't love Casey if he doesn't have a marker. I know that they can't support a criminal regime that is slipping into fascism, so they have to attack a mom for the "crime" of being broken hearted and trying to save lives.

What they don't know is that they can't stop me from trying to save lives. No matter what they cook up next.

It is too important. No more needless gravestones. No more wasted lives.

3. I love the sobriquet...
"LindaSoG", which I suspect is to infer that some participation in a Special Operations Group.

As fscking if.

9. I hope Cindy and her friends are learning to collect the hate mail
as cultural artifact and not losing any precious sleep over it.

10. When I was there in August, they laughed it off
but I don't know if it is still humorous to them. I will be anxious to see how they feel now and also how many 'enemies' will show up in Crawford this week.

I need to get to bed - I am leaving early in the morning for Crawford. :)

14. Oh how could I forget?
BTW, I can't eat jalapenos and I dearly LOVE guacomole. (I think it should be its own food group - LOL)

I'll try to pick up some Texican recipes while I am down there.

16. Cindy's supporters aren't fooled by such transparent lies
That person who wrote the article against her is just another in a long line of anonymous detractors soon forgotten. Meanwhile, people remember Cindy's message.

21. Or it is someone who is not ashamed
But needs to hide it to appear legit.
Don't the Texas Rangers (owner Tom Hicks--ex-business partner/campaign contributor/friend of GWB) have their spring camp in Surprise and aren't they there now?
