Bush and Co. are really feeling the heat from Cindy Sheehan's stint at Camp Casey in Crawford Texas.  And when the Bush White House gets desparate, the desparate get going.  Bush went looking for the anti-Cindy, and found it in Tammy Pruett.

Pruett has 4 sons currently serving in Iraq.  Her husband and another son returned from Iraq last year.  And she's become a cheerleader for the war in Iraq, saying "I know that if something happens to one of the boys, they would leave this world doing what they believe, what they think is right for our country. And I guess you couldn't ask for a better way of life than giving it for something that you believe in."

Of course she's entitled to her opinion, but I wonder if she would still feel that way if confronted with Cindy Sheehan's reality.
