Casey Sheehan, Rest in Peace

We honor our fallen at the wall and in cemeteries and memorials across the country. However, some do not.

It seems that Cindy has not yet placed a tombstone marker on her son's grave. The international globe trotter, Cindy Sheehan, can protest on at least 3 continents, get arrested various times, go on vacation in Hawaii, have photo ops with the Marxist, Hugo Chavez, in Venezuela, but, she can't seem to find the time to properly mark her son's grave.

Of course since this oversight was brought to her attention, Cindy has been lashing out about her pain. You can read about her excuses at World Net Daily, Cindy Sheehan goes to war over no tombstone for son Peace Mom rips 'smear machine,' defends lack of marker for Casey. Cindy has also provided additional excuses in her op-ed, A Markerless Grave in Vacaville , on the "patriotic" Michael Moore's website, too.

Apparently, as the executor of Casey's estate, Cindy must give her permission for things to be done to Casey's grave and his burial affairs. The real tragedy in this affair is that Casey is eligible for a free veteran grave marker from the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Cindy is caught up in her fame and notoriety now. It is all about Cindy, now.

What they don't know is that they can't stop me from trying to save lives. No matter what they cook up next. It is too important. No more needless gravestones. No more wasted lives. Source: Cindy's article at Michael Moore's website

Unfortunately, it sounds to me that Casey has taken a back seat on the Cindy Sheehan Peace Tour.
