Billy Carter, Roger Clinton, Cindy Sheehan

What do all of these people have in common? Drudge:

The Sheehan Family lost our beloved Casey in the Iraq War and we have been silently, respectfully grieving. We do not agree with the political motivations and publicity tactics of Cindy Sheehan. She now appears to be promoting her own personal agenda and notoriety at the the expense of her son's good name and reputation. The rest of the Sheehan Family supports the troops, our country, and our President, silently, with prayer and respect.
Ken Summers posts this from Melanie Morgan, of KSFO:
The letter came from Cheri Quarterolo, a regular listener of KSFO Radio. Cheri is Casey Sheehan's Aunt and godmother. I have confirmed that the letter represents the entire Sheehan side of Casey's family.

Many of the relatives do not want their names made public, and will not be making further statements. But Mrs. Quarterolo confirms that Cindy's actions have been extremely hurtful. "We're coming unglued. We can't walk down the street without people stopping us and telling us that they agree with Cindy. We do not."

Mrs. Qarterolo is Drudge's source and has also personally confirmed this to Ken at It Comes in Pints.

1 So if I can get someone in your family to condemn what you're doing at this site you become discredited. This is so lame. Again.

2 Pete: The concept of "Upset Relative=Bad War" is discredited.

3 The difference is that the first two are just publicity whores, but Sheehan is a propaganda whore.

4 Could it be that, even though her son's death is a real tragedy, she is enjoying playing this role? She wouldn't be the first to desperately cling to fifteen seconds of fame...especially when it also keeps the memory of her son alive. When she stops...

7 Hey, I think Billy Carter is a lot more respectable than Jimmy.
