> Leaving Camp Casey :My Mom

20 August 2005, 08:12

cindy, you are our Shero ... you rose to the occasion, and now you are called to be with your mom till you know it is time to return to Camp Casey.

in your absence, i heard another mother being interviewed on the BBC last night ( the nite you left the camp) and she was equally articulate ... you have drawn real americans to the front lines of life ... to live in a democracy takes real voices and courage to speak truth to power, you are giving many grieving parents their voices by your example ...

my family is a military family, i was raised on military bases accross this land and we are as divided as what it looks many of our families are ... they all use cuss words ... some more vulgar than the ones you have used ... so i sure wouldn’t want too many of the military families who support mr. bush as mine do to act like they haven’t used those words or spoken them or heard them...

i also don’t think you have to defend yourself ... i do think it is cool you are listening to what they are saying about you, but to respond ... i really don’t think it is necessary... as Maxine Waters told you ... the truth is on your side and you have made it clear this is not about you the messenger, this is about stopping an illegal war we were tricked into with a whole lotta lies.

bless you and your family and special healing vibrations of love to your Mom.
