The continued focus by the nation’s media on Cindy Sheehan, the so-called “Peace Mom” who’s demanding a second meeting with President Bush in the wake of her son’s death, is sparking a backlash from parents of other American servicemen and women in Iraq.
One Texas family of a fallen Marine became so enraged with Sheehan’s use of their son’s name on a protest cross, they drove from the town of Spicewood to Crawford to remove it.
“I went there and had Matthew’s name taken off of there,” said Matt Matula, whose son, a 20-year-old Marine, was killed by hostile fire last year. “It’s fine for people to grieve their own way. It aggravates me to see them using other people’s names to further their cause.”

I know I have focused a lot on the “bitch in the ditch” as I heard local radio host Jim Quinn refer to Cindy Sheehan as … but I also want to make sure that everyone knows that there is a strong other side to this story that is not being told.

On topic and intelligent comments are always welcome as are humorous observations. But liberal talking points with no basis in reality, off topic comments, spam and advertisements are not. Even though you may think you are an intelligent liberal, you probably are not. Keep this in mind as trolling is prohibited and will result in your comments not being approved and comments informing us how much we are a bunch of idiots because you say we are or espousing hate towards the truth are often moved directly to the official “I Hate You/You’re An Idiot” thread. Save us all the time and post there directly if you have a comment that would meet those criteria. Commenters reserve the right to mock claims about how liberal ideas, such as higher taxes, actually work and how conservative and right wingers, are NAZIs, racists, sexists, etc. and will do so with great regularity. By posting a comment you agree to abide by the rules of this site.
