Really, what is a mother to do? :(

-FEATURED ACTION-

President and Laura Bush: Meet With Cindy Sheehan

The President and First Lady are spending their five-week vacation
this summer at the ranch in Texas. Meanwhile, Cindy Sheehan's son
Casey won't be spending a five week vacation anywhere this summer --
he was killed in April of 2004 outside Baghdad.

Cindy Sheehan has now traveled to Crawford, Texas, and is waiting for
the President to have a few minutes of free time. She would like the
President to fully explain just what the "noble cause" is that he
keeps mentioning in his speeches, and how sacrificing even more troops
in the Iraq quagmire will "honor the sacrifices of the fallen."

Cindy Sheehan deserves answers to these questions; so does the
American public:

Now, the Secret Service is threatening to arrest Cindy Sheehan when
Defense Secretary Rumsfeld and Secretary of State Rice arrive at the
ranch on Thursday. They say her campsite on the side of the road poses
a "threat to national security."

President and Mrs. Bush -- meet with Cindy Sheehan; don't have her
arrested:

My letter to Mr. Bush......

It is your noble fight that you have defended, upheld and pushed forward that has claimed the life of her son! If you would only meet with her, there would be no reason for her to take the actions that she is attempting to take. And if you are truly justified in your actions as our President, then you have nothing to lose by meeting with this mother and speaking with her about the war in Iraq. Prove us wrong Mr. President.

To continue a VACATION in the face of such misery and heartache of your citizen is to only help prove that you are an apathetic, cold-hearted dictator that cares nothing for anyone other than yourself. Show some empathy!!!


Will he meet with her? Will he have the answers she seeks? Can anyone ever really provide an answer good enough for the death of her son? I think not...... but as our President.... he should make EVERY effort! After all... I don't see the Bush girls fighting in the war.
