Cindy Sheehan does NOT speak for me and my family.We are career ( 25 years ) Navy with two son's in the military.The youngest in the Army National Guard who did fourteen months in Baghdad and the oldest is full time Army who just got deployed to Mosul.She has become the punchline to the jokes in most military families.My husband and son's would be horrified and extremely ticked off if I were to pull " a Cindy Sheehan ".She does'nt seem to understand that shes undermining the morale of our military.This CANNOT and MUST NOT sink into another Vietnam. Cindy Sheehan and her supporters are nothing more than terrorists themselves. They are killing our people AGAIN!Hey Cindy! You've had your fifteen minutes! GO HOME!

I do not support this lady. My guess is that a large majority of Americans do not support her. I'm waiting for the poll. Will my opinion be heard? No. Not by the media. Will Cindy Sheehan and the fringe Leftists opinion be heard? Yes. Every day ad nauseum. Media bias? It doesn't exist, right? Hmmmmm......

This is why I support Cindy, and Anti-war protest:
When you lose your family member due to your government's extreme arrogance and ignorance, if not outright dishonesty, then you have EVERY right to oppose that government, to question the reasons for war, to demand answers. THAT IS WHAT OUR SOLDIERS DIE FOR. They die to defend the PEOPLE, and the PEOPLES RIGHTS, as defined by our Constitution and Declaration of Independance, NOT the "Commander in Chiefs" mistaken belief that he is the bringer of Democracy to the entire world, as chosen by God, which, scarily enough, sounds exactly like the rhetoric of the most violent of extremists.
If and when the country is directly attacked by an invading army, and as a LAST RESORT, the Commander in Chief should be on the front lines defending HIS people, HIS soldiers, not having a hoedown and BBQ on his private ranch on yet ANOTHER vacation while soldiers and civilians are dying by the thousands.
I lived in NYC at the time of 9/11, and remember all to well the horror, but in NO way did it justify the Iraq war. To use the memory of 9/11 to justify, promote and continue a tragically misguided, immoral, and illegal war that continues to kill innocents is beyond blasphemy.
I think that Bush has an obligation to meet with EVERY PARENT OF EVERY SOLDIER THAT DIED. He owes the country a real explanation, he deserves impeachment, but most of all, he should beg forgiveness from the families whose children he took in vain.

Why Do I support Cindy ?
" Let me count the reasons Why ! I begin by saying : Because Hers is the "'Voice in the Wilderness' All of us who Did not Know how to Fight the Evil that is Going on in this Government ) Have been Waiting & Longing to HEAR ! She, among millions, Showed the Strength of Character...the strength and determination to Speak up against What She Knows Is Terribly Wrong here With this Government. It took a Lone, Broken-hearted Young Woman who Had Lost her Oldest son ( TO this military action that was instigated against Iraq ..with no Qualitative Reason ) To have the "Nerve to Speak OUT To this Administration. >>>Something No one else Did .. [But Should Have.] I admire her for her Forthrightness in putting herself on the "Firing line' Unafraid of the Bush Neo-Conservative Bunch that would Smell Blood and come after her for "Having the Audacity to ' Find Fault in GW Bush & Associates,( For After all, HE is a PRAYERFUL And Very Christian man Of God..He Talks to God and God answers him back and Guides him in the Way he Must Go!) A True Christian does not Harm innocent people.Does not Instigate a WAR against a Country for NO Reason. Bush Did. And Has, And Cindys` boy is one of the almost 1900 service men and women who have died, thus far...( And with No REAL REASON GIVEN as to WHY..Even YET.) Cindy will not Stop until The Whole Truth comes Out... And These Innocent Lives have been avenged. When Justice is served against the ones who Brought this Down on us all. There comes a Time when Even Bush Has to Own up to his Misdeeds. He talks about " Staying the Course' >>>>What Course is That ? I Am Totally behind Cindy Sheehan... Because She is Right,, and the Truth will Come OUT.You don`t have to be a Republican or Democrat to Open up your Eyes and DO what is Right. Congress < ARe you listening to What is Happening here ? Start Your Petition For Immediate Impeachment of GW Bush and His Associates. An illegal war is ample grounds for impeachment... And You Know there are many More . VGF

You asked people to e-mail you and tell you why we support Cindy Sheehan. Well, here's my answer.
Cindy Sheehan is a strong, wonderful woman. Her son died in a war, and she wants to know why. Many of us have asked ourselves the same questions, but she is the brave woman who took the questions to Bush. She has the right, as do everyone else who has lost loved ones in this pointless war, to know why they died and why this war is still raging on. Bush has an obligation to tell the People of the United States what we demand to know! Right now, though, he's being a coward and won't speak! We want to know the answers, and thanks to this wonderful woman, Cindy Sheehan, we might find them out!
That's why I support her! Her love for her lost son is helping the People of the United States! We love you, Cindy!!! Keep on keepin' on!! :D

Living in a military community, I know first hand the feelings and emotions that consume a person when they first realize their loved one to going to Iraq, and I must say the biggest emotion I see is pride, both from the family and from the service members themselves. The liberal media is airing this story almost exclusively, as though Cindy Sheehan represents all the mothers of soldiers in Iraq. But what about Janet Norwood, she is also the mother of a son who died in Iraq and she is proud of her sons service to our country...she doesn't blame Bush for his death, but of course she doesn't get nearly as much air time as Sheehan because she isn't a woman hell bent on riding her sons death to a movie of the week deal.
Cindy Sheehan is mentally and emotionally unbalanced, even her family has acknowledge this fact. Her sons death was tragic, but he was a MAN who CHOSE to fight in Iraq for his country. He wasn't a child drafted there, it was his choice and she needs to respect that. She also needs to stop letting Michael Moore exploit her sons death to push his fat ass agenda.

I am 100% with Cindy, my son was in Cuba for 18 months I see a big change in his thought's of Mr Bush since he was there. I still shake my head when people still say we are at war in Iraq because of 911. The UN knew the documents he had about Iraq buying from Africa were fake 2 weeks before we went to war. They did not back us up. We know why now. I have Greek TV at my home. Why haven't I ever seen the kids other countries have help with medical expenses on our TV programs? The women who are not safe where is this on out TV? Iran hates us because we backed Iraq in war against them. We now have a Grandson of a big leader from Iran running Iraq. Now we have 2 countries that do not like us. We need to get out now. I know the soliders are doing a job. They have no choice. We have made them leave good paying jobs. Everyone said they made a choice. No the did not. What about the men they have had to go back after being out 8 years and had no choice. What about the one's only wanting to get their pension? When we have a draft I want to hear these same people thinking this war is ok.
