Not a single Congressman's son or daughter went to Iraq. They know better.
If that simple-minded, gutless hand-puppet we call a President sent a daughter or two over there maybe more people would believe his lies. I have to admire Cindy Sheehan for squeezing balls that must be pretty hard to find.
I watched another disgusted Gold Star Mom yesterday on FOX's Bill O'Reilly corroborate what Cindy Sheehan had said of HER initial visit to the White House. Bush bullied up to inches in front of her face and intoned "I'm George Bush and I'm President of the United States!". She said it was completely obvious to her that the man who strutted and boasted in front of her cared not at all for any of the lives being torn apart and couldn't begin to register any sensitivity for them. Apparently he's not even smart enough to fake it!
O'Reilly tried to mess around with her but really couldn't. The best he could manage was to do all the talking. Anybody that tries to push a mother under tragic circumstances around just ends up looking like a mindless heartless idiot. That is what is deservedly happening to Bush.
What did shrub accomplish? What did Casey Sheehan die for in the end?
To establish an Islamic Republic in Iraq. No? Read tomorrow's Washington Post:

The Bush administration is significantly lowering expectations of what can be achieved in Iraq, recognizing that the United States will have to settle for far less progress than originally envisioned during the transition due to end in four months, according to U.S. officials in Washington and Baghdad.
