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.

lemme apologize in advance if it looked as if i was criticizing you. i wasnt. i shouldve mentioned i was speaking generally.



i wouldnt agree if a rep. did that. i dont believe in politics or false partisanship. the war is wrong. plain and simple. if someone were to do that, it would be out of blind rage and anger. sheehan lost her son and thats what made her snap out of unreasonable thinking.

politics has nothing to do with the matter. if she did the exact same thing only she was an ardent rep. then would that mean she's crazy for not backing bush? or does that mean she's a human being who's had enough of the pointless violence?

Why cant she preach? isnt that what america's about? being able to speak your mind and not have to be uniform or conform to any standards you dont agree with?

and let's not forget, the press got wind of her and THEY found her. not the other way around. she was a woman content to sit in her chair and wait patiently for bush to own up and be a man.


so far ive seen the leader of the most powerful nation in the world act like a cowardly child and a frail hippy sand with the strength of ten men.


sorry mate, ill have to g with sheehan on this one.




keep up the good pot!
