Accuracy in Media reports on a Nightline interview with 29 mothers who have lost sons in Iraq. Not all agree with the war – but not all disagree, either.
Even among those who disagree with the war, there's relatively little support for Cindy Sheehan.
Surprisingly, even the mothers opposed to the war weren't too sympathetic toward Sheehan. One mother said Sheehan "makes me angry, because she's loading the guns for the enemy, she's empowering our enemy. She does not speak for me. Nor for my son." One mother opposed to the war said she was glad Sheehan spoke up, but another countered: "It's all politically motivated."
Debra Meyer said Cindy Sheehan, "as far as I'm concerned, dishonors her son's memory. It's all about her and her political views, and not about the guys."
