Greedy

Ok, let's start off today's post with a housekeeping chore.

My blog is a tongue-in-cheek look at things, and unless something said here is directed at someone by name, it is strictly for amusement and not to offend anyone.


That said, today's post is going to be directed at someone. I hate it when it is about making money and I think my story is about someone that is greedy.

No matter which side of the aisle you are on, or what your beliefs are of the war, when the United States goes to war, we call on our military people to staff that war.

In 1973, the draft ended and the US converted to an All-Volunteer military, therefore anyone fighting in the Iraq war is a soldier by choice. The soldiers enlisted voluntarily, were not forced to join...were not drafted...they made an independent adult decision, they took an oath, and they knew full well they may die for their country.

In my eyes, those that have died are heroes, and I hate to see them tarnished, especially by a family member of all people.


Cindy Sheehan buys land near Bush’s ranch

Antiwar Mom used insurance money to buy Crawford, Texas plot.

Globe-trotting anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan has collected her son's $250,000 military life insurance policy, collected endless gifts and perks from her far-left liberal friends and bought herself a brand-new VW Beetle convertible.

Getting cuddly with Venezuela's Hugo Chavez and thanking him for "supporting life and peace?" Jane Fonda all over!!!!!!!

"We decided to buy property in Crawford to use until George’s resignation or impeachment, which we all hope is soon for the sake of the world," Sheehan said in a newsletter, scheduled to be sent to her supporters today. "I can’t think of a better way to use Casey’s insurance money than for peace, and I am sure that Casey approves."


I, for one, don't think Casey would have approved. He died because of his beliefs which makes one wonder did Cindy support him in life? She certainly has not honored and supported him in death. Her son was killed on 4-4-04, and she still hadn't bought a grave stone for her son's grave which, until 5-27-06, did not have one.




Casey Sheehan Now Has a Headstone on His Grave

Casey Austin Sheehan was killed on 04/04/04 (Palm Sunday) by insurgents/terrorists/scum (his Mom calls them "freedom fighters") in Sadr City, Iraq. 783 days later, on May 27, 2006, a headstone was finally placed on the grave of SPC Casey Sheehan (1st Battalion, 82nd Field Artillery Regiment, 1st Cavalry Division, Fort Hood, Texas). Before enlisting in the United States Army, Casey was an alter boy in the Catholic church, an Eagle Scout and much, much more. His headstone seems a fitting marker for his resting place, reflecting not only his service to his community and his country, (Bronze Star and Purple Heart) but also his personal interests such as Van Halen, the Boy Scouts of America, Federation and Superman. May he rest in well-deserved peace.

Cindy Sheehan claims that she paid for the headstone, but in fact, just six weeks earlier (46 days to be exact), Cindy Sheehan even admitted that she didn't want him to have one, saying, "I didn't want to put a TOMBstone on my son's grave," she wrote, capitalizing the letters of the word "tomb."

In point of fact, speaking less than two weeks earlier, Cindy said "On Casey Sheehan's birthday, Memorial Day, I'll be at my son's grave and have a dedication for his tombstone." But the lure of Australian dollars was too strong and when the tombstone was placed, Cindy was overseas, annoying people (and collecting money for herself). When she got word that a headstone had been placed, her response was: "It is important for the rest of Casey's family to have one."

Cindy said "My son was killed in 2004. I am not paying my taxes for 2004," Sheehan told an audience. "Come after me [for back taxes] and we'll put this war on trial."

I think the IRS needs to do just that!!!!!!!!!!!

Cindy Sheehan stated, "I have lost almost every friend that I had before Casey died. My husband and I are separated, because he doesn't support my activities, although he knows the war is a lie."

Her husband of 28 years saw through her charades!!!!!!!

She also has no right to call the President Of The United States by his first name. I doubt her son would have done that!!!

This was a departure from my normal posts, but I just wanted it out there!!!

Same time, same place tomorrow.
