Her Grief Has Knocked Her Off Her Rocker

Cindy Sheehan, sometimes given the title "Peace Mom" continues to stray further from what is best for America. As angry as she makes me sometimes, I can't minimize her loss. She lost a son in a war she feels we should not be fighting. Her loss is tragic (as is the loss of each and every American soldier), and I'm sure it is compounded by her belief we should not even be fighting this war. But I believe her grief has knocked her off her rocker...her attempts at "peace" would do nothing but erode our country's security and any chance for peace.

Case in point. She was just arrested in Washington DC trying to deliver petitions, supposedly signed by 80,000 Americans, opposed to the use of military force to resolve the dispute over Iran's nuclear program. I guess that she has not heard Iran say they are willing to share their missile systems with other nations, including those who would aniline the US if possible? Does she honestly think that her son, a member of the US armed forces, would support the US sitting this one out while Iran sells/gives this dangerous technology to terrorists?
