Look at it this way... If a Republican's son/daughter died in Iraq at the hands of one of the 'insurgents', and they did what Sheehan is doing now, except they used their child's death to promote the war, saying that these 'insurgents' need to be taken out, then would you agree? Would Sheehan agree? The answer, I fear, is no. So then she is using the death of her son to strengthen her political views, almost as if saying "See!". She claims to have been doing "this type of thing" for a while, long before her son died, and now that he has died she is using his name and his death to get into the press so she can preach about what she thinks is right or wrong.

I'm not saying I agree with her political views or not, i'm just saying that I don't agree with the way she is getting those views across.
