Where is the coverage....
Of the proud parents of fallen soldiers? This Sheehan thing is totally media driven at this point. The media has kept it alive, and made it thrive. I was listening to the Sean Hannity radio show on the way home from work on friday, (I was on the long island expressway, so i had plenty of time to listen) and I heard 4 different parents of fallen soldiers call in and say that they're outraged with this woman. Why haven't they gotten any coverage? Hannity, to his credit tried to defend Sheehans right to speak out and say whatever she wants, but he was put in his place quickly by one father who said he and his wife were offended when they heard Sheehan say she speaks for all of the families of fallen soldiers! These parents feel she is using her dead son as a prop to get attention for her personal anti-war, anti-Bush beliefs, which her son obviously didn't agree with. I think they're right. So my question is, where is the media when it comes to these parents? Could it be that these parents don't represent the main stream media's view point, and that's why they won't give them any time? Did these people not lose sons and daughters in the same war? Didn't maureen dowd, celebrated columnist for the ny slimes say "THE MORAL AUTHORITY OF PARENTS WHO BURY CHILDREN KILLED IN IRAQ IS ABSOLUTE" ? Yes, she did, so why hasn't she done any stories on these parents?

She is clearly insane. I almost feel bad denigrating a Gold Star MOM , however I dont in this case. You are right that she is being used by the moores and the soros' of the world. Why is she so special that SHE needs a second audience with the President...whether she agrees with Bush or not, she must understand that he is rather busy and it would be logistically impossible for him to grant visits by all this Country's fallen families. And oh yeah, the main stream media sucks eggs.
Thank you!
