1. I am curious--Has the WH *previously * released photes of his 'private'
meetings with the families who have lost loved ones???????

Is this something NEW?

Maybe I'm wrong but I think there is something wrong with a woman..
who is supporting someone who sent her husband and 5 children to war. I think it is an outrage that our government would send 6 people from the same family to war.

7. I should have clarified my post and said sent 6 family members..
to a war that was based on lies and deception. A war that never should have been.

2. It's the obvious come back
The problem is that whiel it is a good response to the emotional argument that Cindy Sheehan presents, it's no response to the intellectual challenge. There is no response to that.

Idaho or wherever, pimping the war.

16. None

Yet.

Odds are small she might lose a single family member unless the casualty rate increases dramatically.

18. She might sing a different tune, put into Cindy's shoes.
My sister's husband has to go for 18 months. He leaves before the end of September. They aren't happy about it. He just went about a month ago and changed his voter's registration to dem. My sister is in shock. They both despise Bush.

19. Pruitt supports Bush.
I guess that's why SHE got a second meeting with him.

20. Couldn't he just quiet Cindy by meeting w/ her?
Not that I think Cindy needs to be quieted... but thinking out-loud.... Cindy continues to be page one because she's there, and she's there because she wants a meeting.

Am I the only one who thinks this is a no-brainer?
