On Sheehan

Yes, this is a free country and people can protest all they want, but I still hold to this fact: demanding that the troops come home now is wrong. It's unreasonable and unrational and the troops over there don't appreciate it. That's not to say that my heart doesn't go out to all of those grieving mothers. Heck, I have a loved one in the military myself. But we all should understand the risk. However, I do think it's wrong that Bush isn't giving these mothers the time of day. He needs to be there for them and he's not (even though he's on vacation). If anything meaningful comes out of this protest, I hope that will be it.
