Another Installment of Cindy Sheehan's Advice Column

Dear Cindy:
I am sorry for the loss of your son in Iraq. But it seems to me that Casey was doing what he wanted, that he chose to be there, and volunteered for the mission on which he was tragically killed. He was a patriot, in the truest sense of the word. So my question is, do you really think that Casey, if he could talk to you right now, would agree with your actions?

Also, do you know how to get a blood stain out of a cashmere jacket?

Dear Neo-Fascist ChickenHawk:
If you believe so much in this war for oil, why aren't you in Iraq? Most, if not all, of the U.S. soldiers in Iraq do not want to be there. They may not show it, because they've been brainwashed. My son Casey told me about the brainwashing when I summoned him at a séance at Barbra Streisand's house.

I would use seltzer on the blood stain, but I think you should leave the stain as a symbol of my son's blood, which you now have on your hands.

Dear Cindy:
I have a quick math question for you: Jerry was 6 years old when his mother was 30. Now she is twice his age. How old is Jerry?
Curious in Copper Springs

Dear Curious:
Jerry is dead, killed in some far away land for oil and a neo-con agenda that only benefits a very chosen few in this world. His mother is grieving and driving an electric car.


Cindy Sheehan is an anti-war activist who, according to New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd, derives absolute moral authority from the death of her son in Iraq. She offers her own eyebrow-raising view of world events on the peace speaker's circuit, and adamantly denies that she has used her son's death for her own fame. For more on her story, see her recent profile in Vanity Fair, where she lies on her son's grave in a heartrending photo spread.
