You know what I would have said 'What noble cause did my son die for'
More Quotes from Cindy Sheehan:
Cindy Sheehan, the Gold Star mother who lost her son in Iraq and who has spent the last month perched outside the Crawford ranch like Poe's raven, almost sounds like she pities George in her latest dispatch from Camp Casey. Since the Freedom and Democracy thing is not going so well, ... and the Iraqi parliament is having such a hard time writing their constitution, since violence is mounting against Iraqis and Americans and since his poll numbers are going down every day, he had to come up with something.Cindy Sheehan
These so-called women have no maternal instinct or compassion for the people that their policies have killed.
Cindy Sheehan
I think she needs to say I don't have to act like a man to be a good leader, ... She needs to act like a woman and be against the war. I think it's really important for the Democrats to be an opposition party and she is the leader, in a way. She has a lot of power and she's been more of a hawk than most Republicans.
Cindy Sheehan
I know my son. I know him better than anybody else. And, he wasn't married, we were very close. He called me everyday when he was at Fort Hood. We talked about all of his life, all of my life. And, I lost my best friend when I lost my son. But I know my son. And, I know he would say 'I don't want anymore of my buddies killed just because I am dead I want my buddies to come home alive.' And I know when I get up to greet him, when it is my time, he is going to say 'good job, Mom.' He is not going to accuse me of dishonoring his memory. And, anybody who knows my son better than me, would like to come forward and tell me something different, I would be glad to hear their voices.
