Casey Sheehan DID die for a Noble Cause.
Holy Christ!

Here is the definition of "Noble". Read number one.

no·ble (nô'bəl)
adj., -bler, -blest.

1.) Possessing hereditary rank in a political system or social class.
2.) Having or showing qualities of high moral character, such as courage, generosity, or honor: a noble spirit.


Casey died for the benefit of George Bush's family and friends.

George Bush is of the nobility.

1. Actually, his death...
resulted in his mom kick starting the rebellion which in itself is a noble cause. Casey will never be forgotten.

4. yes he did die for a noble cause...
the cause his mother carries to the world..in her simple truth and courage to confront the lies that led us to the war that killed her son....and to prevent the deaths of more sons of both american and iraqi mothers.

5. Noble cause
only on one of the two definitions given.


Also, it could be argued that even under the first definition it is not true from a long term perspective.
