Antiwar mom who lost son in Iraq interrupting Bush's vacation - 08/08/05By Doug Cunningham Cindy Sheehan's son Casey was killed in Iraq. She wants U.S. troops home now. She's outraged that George W. Bush is calling the war a "noble cause". So outraged that she went to Crawford Texas and is camped there to interrupt Bush's vacation and confront him about his statement. [Cindy Sheehan 1] : "I don't want him to use my son's name to continue the killing. I don't want him to use my family's sacrifice to continue the killing." Sheehan says the war is immoral, based on horrendous lies and deceptions. And she knows Bush doesn't really care about those killed in Iraq based on her own meeting with him after her son Casey's death. [Sheehan 2] : "First thing he says when he walks in the room is like 'Who are we honorin' here?' He didn't even know Casey's name. He didn't know our name. I brought about eight pictures of Casey, He wouldn't look at the pictures. he wouldn't let him tell him about Casey and what an indispensable member of humanity and of our family that he was. Every time we tried to talk about Casey he changed the subject. He just does not care." Sheehan will stay camped on Bush's vacation doorstep through August. She says Americans and Iraqis are dying for lies and it has to stop. She's urging Americans to get behind her and demand immediate withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq.
