The Flag Bearer - Casy Sheehan
2005-08-20
Cindy Sheehan has announced that she will return to
Crawford to continue her message that America is not
worthy...

In battles past at the sound of the trumpet a soldier
designated to carry the flag in the battle would
charge forward into the face of evil. The flag bearer
represented the spirit of the soldiers in the charge
and ensuing battle.

There is no doubt that this war pits good mounting a
charge against evil. In most cases before the battle
the flag bearer volunteers to carry the flag.
Therefore, all the soldiers in this days army are flag
bearers as all volunteered to enter this battle
against terror and possibley die young so that others
may live a long and full life of freedom from fear and
terror.

Each time a flag bearing soldier falls as they surge
forward in battle another soldier takes up the flag
and continues the great charge holding the colors high
for all to see.

Cindy Sheehan has shamed her son who fell holding the
colors by telling the others do not pick up the flag
he bore in the charge. Cindy Sheehan says the colors
her son died holding high representing the ideals of
freedom, justice, liberty and peace is not worthy.

But the day will come when at the sound of the trumpet
these fallen who by then may have been forgotten will
rise again and shout their names to remind the world
that they are now eternal.

And the voices of those who dishonored their valor
while they were fallen will NOT have a voice on that
day but will be silent forever.
