A Good Mother and a Good American
Cindy Sheehan squeezed every second out of the 15 minutes she purchased by exploiting her son's death. In contrast, decent women who honor their sons' sacrifices don't get much attention from the press. Barbara Weitzel is a case in point. Her son, Marine Lance Corporal Scott Zubowski, died at age 20 during combat operations in Fallujah.
"My son, who was a very, very good man, gave his life so that I could have this nice house and live comfortably and fearlessly," said Weitzel. "My boy chose this and if I were to have regrets I would be dishonoring his choices, dishonoring his service, dishonoring the country that he serves."
If Weitzel were looking for media adulation, she would be going about it all wrong. But what she is doing is respecting her son's memory, and she is doing right.
