I know he would say: 'I don't want any more of my buddies killed just because I'm dead. I want my buddies to come home alive'. |
I know how Cindy Sheehan feels. I'm a mother too. |
I know my son. And I know he would say, 'I don't want any more of my buddies killed just because I'm dead. I want my buddies to come home alive, |
I know my son. And I know he would say, 'I don't want any more of my buddies killed just because I'm dead. I want my buddies to come home alive. |
I know my son. I know him better than anybody else. And, he wasn't married, we were very close. He called me everyday when he was at Fort Hood. We talked about all of his life, all of my life. And, I lost my best friend when I lost my son. But I know my son. And, I know he would say 'I don't want anymore of my buddies killed just because I am dead; I want my buddies to come home alive.' And I know when I get up to greet him, when it is my time, he is going to say 'good job, Mom.' He is not going to accuse me of dishonoring his memory. And, anybody who knows my son better than me, would like to come forward and tell me something different, I would be glad to hear their voices. |
I know that Casey would be proud of me, ... I am always going to be a grieving mom. I will be a grieving mom until the day I die. |
I know that they are in heaven, ... and I know that that's why this movement is growing because we have tens of thousands of angels behind us that are supporting us, that are saying, 'Well, you know we died and that was really crappy, but we hope that our deaths are going to make the world a better place,' and it's up to us to make sure that it does. |
I look back on it, and I am very, very, very grateful he did not meet with me, because we have sparked and galvanized the peace movement, ... If he'd met with me, then I would have gone home, and it would have ended there. |
I looked in his eyes and it looked like he could tell what I was thinking. That's very disarming when you have like a week-old baby looking at you, and you know he knows what you're thinking. And I knew he was going to be a great man. I just had no idea how great he was going to be or how much it was going to hurt me. |
I love my country. But how many more of our loved ones need to die in this senseless war? ... I know you can't bring Casey back. But it's time to admit mistakes and bring our troops home now. |
I never ever, ever got up here and said ... I speak for every single military family, |
I never said I speak for them, ... I speak for myself. |
I now know he's sincere about wanting freedom for the Iraqis, |
I now know he's sincere about wanting freedom for the Iraqis, I know he's sorry and feels some pain for our loss. And I know he's a man of faith. |
