What should Bush tell Cindy Sheehan?

Very heartfelt editorial that pushes the President to meet with Cindy and then goes on suggesting what he could say, just in case he doesn't know it.

My favorite parts:
Begin by apologizing to her for misleading our nation into believing that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction.

[A]s Harry Truman said in his farewell address, "The buck stops here." You misled us, and you should just flat out admit it.

[T]ell Sheehan you didn't mean it when you said during the final 2000 presidential debate that U.S. forces should be deployed abroad only when the mission is "clear," the force is "strong enough so that the mission can be accomplished" and the exit strategy is "well-defined."

What a fraud we have for President.

I agree that Cindy "bad hats" Sheehan should meet the president -- the president of Iraq. And then she should meet some of the troops she is smearing.

Is "bad hats" the best you can come up with!?

Wow, you must really be at your wit's end. You guys can't find anything of any substance at all to attack Cindy, can you?

Let me tell you, though, anyone who badmouths a mother who lost a son in an immoral and illegal war just because she wants to talk to the man responsible for sending her son to die, and ask him why he really did it, doesn't have any credibility or respect.

I pity you all.

As for the troops' smearing, she is the one trying to get the troops out of Iraq, where they aren't safe because the Republicans in the White House haven't provided them with the necessary equipment to successfully (and safely) wage their stupid oil-war.
