Peace Mom called

[LINK] Little Green Footballs

Compare Cindy Sheehan's version of how her son's body was treated to the funeral home's.

Cindy:

"We picked him up in the United loading dock in a cardboard box and he was off-loaded into a hearse without one honor guard."

"Has anybody held her other sobbing children who are sitting on a curb in San Francisco, waiting for the remains of their big brother to be carried over to the dock by a forklift?"

Nadeau Funeral Home in Vacaville:

"The casket was a beautiful hardwood casket, government regulation. It was covered in an ”airtray“ to protect it during the flight. It is a certified covering that all caskets must be covered in when they are flown from one location to another."

”There was no forklift. The military men present and the airport employees were very reverent in unloading the casket of this young man. They set the casket on a set of rollers and were very respectful in unloading Casey Sheehan.“

See the truth at Gateway Pundit.

Why should we take anything this woman says at face value, without checking it?

And, as of this posting, her son STILL doesn't have a headstone, to my knowledge [at least it didn't by JAN 2006], even though my understanding is the government will provide one if she requests it and survivors receive $400K of insurance.
