I am sorry Casey Sheehan was killed in the war. I would never be disrespectful of him. She is another matter. I can judge her on her actions, which IMHO are bizarre, stupid, attention seeking, etc.
She's a nutcase, no wonder she wants to compete with pelosi, two peas in a pod.

I was against going into Iraq at the onset. Afghanistan wasn't complete and fighting wars on multiple fronts is difficult. Better to remain patient finish up and move on.
This agreement was at what time? I don't believe whoever was pressing for whatever when Clinton was in office has any relevance to the post 9/11 threat situation, everything changed on 9/11 execept Bush's obsession with Saddam, I think we'll be paying for that obsession for years to come.

Protesting in Egypt about prisoners of war has what to do with her sons death again?
I haven't been all that thrilled with some of her behavior but I hadn't heard that she was openly supporting al Qaeda, that's why I asked. And since when is relevance to a child's death a prerequisite to being allowed to protest? I was under the impression that despite Bush's best efforts the Constitution was still in effect.

Many would say that invading a nation that had no ties to an attack on the US rather than making the extermination of those responsible priority one is every bit as stupid and attention seeking as Ms Sheehan's actions.
That's some NEWS...Iraq and WTC. Please, provide info/links showing that Iraq is/was responsible for WTC.
Maybe a CIA agent could provide the link. Let's ask Valerie Plame, now that top officials have exposed her in an act that could arguably be called treason.

The CIA did not, in fact, believe that. That's a fabrication.
You're parroting a discredited line.
