CINDY SHEEHAN CHICKENS OUT ON MEETING WITH FELLOW GOLD STAR MOM PDF E-mail

If you want to run for political office, you need to have some guts. As in meeting with people who don't agree with you. Cindy Sheehan, who has announced she is running for Congress in the 8th district of California (my district) because House Speaker Nancy Pelosi isn't bringing our troops out of Iraq fast enough for her taste, is a weak sister. She has displayed a distinct lack of courage when it comes to having discussions with fellow Gold Star Family members with a different point of view in fighting the War on Terror. Or even going on television without the mainstream media protecting her back. Read this appalling 'diss' of Jan Johnson, whose son Justin was close friends with Cindy's son Casey before both were killed within six days of each other.

UPDATE! SHEEHAN ALSO SAYS THAT SHE IS PLANNING TO GO TO IRAQ. IF HER (Code) PINK JET SETS DOWN ANYWHERE NEAR IRAQ, WHAT KIND OF RECEPTION DO YOU THINK SHE WILL RECIEVE?

ANSWER: A COLD ONE

Sheehan to grieving mother: Take a hike

The day terrorists murdered Casey Sheehan, Jan Johnson sat in her Georgia home, frozen with fear that her own son was dead.
Mrs. Johnson’s son, Justin, was a good buddy with Casey. They met up at Fort Hood, Texas, where the young Christian men prepared to fight in Iraq.
When Mrs. Johnson finally got the phone call, she heard Justin’s tired and mournful voice. Casey was dead and Justin’s heart broke. Justin tried to save him and the others, but there was no way out for them.
Six days after Casey was killed, the same terrorists blew up Justin’s Humvee and stole Mrs. Johnson’s youngest child.
The deaths of Mrs. Johnson and Ms. Sheehan’s sons thrust them into the world of Gold Star Parents, those whose children die for America during wartime.
Since 2004 when the two women became Gold Star mothers, Mrs. Johnson has reached out to Ms. Sheehan, whom many in the mainstream media have glorified as the Peace Mom, the face of all mothers who’ve lost their sons and daughters in the current war with radical Muslim Jihadists.
But Ms. Sheehan has never returned an email.

Even after their stories appeared in the book I coauthored with MAF Chairman Melanie Morgan, “American Mourning,” Sheehan has rebuffed Mrs. Johnson’s attempts to meet and talk about their sons.
The latest try came this weekend. Mrs. Johnson heard that Ms. Sheehan would be in Georgia, the Johnsons’ home. She and her husband, Joe (who served in Iraq as a gunner on a Humvee after Justin was killed), traveled close to the spot that Sheehan was to appear for a rally to wait.
Mrs. Johnson kept her plans quiet. This was a private meeting between two women who shared so much. She just wanted time with her Gold Star sister, even if they disagree on the United State’s war efforts.
Mrs. Johnson sent the following email to Sheehan via Sheehan’s sister and spokeswoman, Dede Miller. (Johnson did not release the email or plans to me until after Sheehan ignored her plea to meet).

Dede, I am requesting a meeting with your sister.  Isn’t it about time she and I sat down face to face and talked about our boys, after all, they were friends.  I’m not looking to start anything, I just think it would do both of us some good to finally meet and talk.  When Casey died, Justin called home as soon as he could to tell me about his buddy he had lost and cried on the phone to me about him.  Casey’s death really touched Justin deep....he was his first friend to get killed.  Of course, he was his last that he knew about since Justin was killed 6 days later.  So much has been made of their friendship. I have been told you will be in the Gainesville, Ga. area on Sunday...so will I.  If Cindy is willing to meet me and talk, give me a call on my cell.  Thank you...by the way, I’m not telling anyone about this either so don’t think I’m trying to set her up or anything...just two moms who have lost their sons.  Jan Johnson

The Silence was deafening. Joe and Jan waited for two days away from their homes, hoping Sheehan would call.

If Sheehan can’t meet with Gold Star Parents whose own child loved hers, how will she deal with her enemies? It is clear from her abhorrent behavior to the Johnsons that she is not fit for office and she never was a worthy representative of those whose children gave their lives in Iraq or Afghanistan.

The Devil Went Down to Georgia . . .on her way to Iraq

Cindy Sheehan was apparently too busy fighting with other Southerners who don’t agree with her to make time for other grieving parents. During a stop in Montgomery, Ala., Sheehan with Chris Vucovich, who supports the troops and their mission. Vucovich had just had surgery, but the pain didn’t stop him from confronting the Peace Mom who wants to oust House Speaker, Gen. Nancy Pelosi.
Sheehan was on her “Summer of Love 2007” tour. She was apparently spreading the peaceful words of such leftist pacifists as Che Guevara, the murderous thug whose picture ignorant Americans wear on their T-shirts like it’s a Levi’s logo.

Sheehan announced on CNN today that she will go to Iraq. Really?? I wonder if she will be flying on her buddy Hugo Chavez’s private jet. I’m sure Hugo could help her hookup with Iranian dictator Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and they could work out some sort of deal to bring cheap gasoline to the Bay Area.

Watch out, Gen. Pelosi. Sheehan could be a real threat to your Speakership. Under Sheehan’s dictates, San Francisco could earn the name, “Baghdad by the Bay.”
Thank the Wicken worshippers that Herb Caen isn’t around for this one.

Tomorrow: Big announcement at Move America Forward
