"VACAVILLE, Calif. - Before her son was killed in Iraq, before she began a peace vigil outside President Bush's Texas ranch, before she became an icon of the anti-war movement and the face of grieving mothers, there was a time when Cindy Sheehan's life was, by all appearances, incredibly normal" ...

Some un-American slime bags are voting this article down. Why do Freepers hate America and our Freedoms so much?

11. Why does that article say Casey

was the father of twin girls. If you watched the video with Will Pitt, she said Casey was a virgin and had died as such. Can anyone enlighten me please?

Edited to say rated 5 stars score 485

14. I don't know.

Is the interview transcribed somewhere? I haven't seen the video and don't have speakers on my work computer.

Maybe another DUer can answer that?

Thanks, dogday

15. Will Pitt interviewed Cindy

The video is at truth-out. She states specifically what type of person Casey was and she spoke in detail about this...

[tandot]

18. If Casey doesn't have twins, they should correct the article

Where did the author get that?

[dogday]

19. absolutely

I have not read this anywhere else. Cindy has three other kids, maybe she has the twins?

13. i have not lost a child, how many of ours lives have changed

mine. my husband said the other day, he is not as politically inclined as i. and i thought about his sharing. later in the night i told him, i have always been up on current affairs, just always, but never, have i put all of my days, day after days into the political enviroment the way i have for the last handful of years, since we got bush.

this is not who i am. this is not who i was

but i have had to become, becuase of bush adn the republicans the lying cheating stealing corruption

16. They changed from the original title - it was Peace Mother

not Protest Mother. Notice the name of the link.

Someone must've not liked Peace Mother. Wonder why?

[Bumblebee]

17. All in all, one of the best stories about her so far, even with the title

changed and possible inaccuracies about Casey (they may be confusing him with his other brother, Andy?)
