The following came with an attachment that I couldn't open but the text tells quite a lot. While I don't approve of theis war, I have had a lot of reservations about Cindy Sheehan. I can't see why she deserved an audience with the president simply because her son was killed in Iraq. This is an all volunteer military. I understand he had re-enlisted. It is a tragedy but it was part of the risk he took. She has impressed me as a publicity hound, who, from the text had her picture taken with the biggest publicity hound of all - Jesse Jackon.
