Bush says Sheehan views don’t reflect most military families
President Bush defended Cindy Sheehan’s protest outside his Texas home while saying her demands for immediate Iraq withdrawal would weaken the United States. He acknowledged her anguish over her son’s death but urged patience as Iraq moves toward democracy. Bush praised Israel’s Gaza pullout and noted a government in Gaza should answer to Palestinians. He spoke at Tamarack Resort during a two night Idaho visit amid two rally speeches and private meetings with families of the dead.
