The continuing saga of Cindy Sheehan hanging out by the President's Crawford Texas home has really gotten sour. Nerves at the site seem frayed.
I am no fan of President Bush and have never been a supporter of the war on Iraq. We did not have UN approval and their were no WMD's as threatened, however, that day of decision has passed. T
he President is THE PRESIDENT.
I do not think he should meet with her - again. And ignoring her presence at the ranch will not do any good either. Especially if some one is hurt or tensions escalate.
What a great time to have a good reason to cancel his vacation for a week and head to: a disaster site, a meeting of some conservative group, an international good will mission or something. Maybe with the completion of an Iraq constitution, Bush could sneak into Iraq for a celebratory signing or something. If the President and the media left Crawford, this wrong approach to this serious issue would go away.
We all share the pain of the Sheehan family.
Openly and candidly discussing Iraq's future and our role in it is a much better way to deal with the Iraq issue for everyone's benefit. It is the failure in doing so that has provided Cindy Sheehan with this platform.
